Lovely friendly hotel

Very spacious hotel in a lovely building and quiet road, close to the beach top promenade. We walked everywhere. The room was very comfortable and spacious. Breakfast was really nice, full hot and cold buffet and extra menu to order from. Very friendly staff.

Nice hotel but breakfast disappointing.

Our room was clean and comfortable and the staff were friendly. I was extremely disappointed though that for the duration of our three day stay the hotel had “run out” of plant based alternatives at breakfast. As a vegetarian this is important to me and had I known before I booked I would have selected room only and had breakfast at one of the many local eateries. When I complained to the waitress on the third day she just shrugged her shoulders which gave me the impression that she didn’t care. No apology was offered.

The staff as ever were superb the property is catering for one offs nobody actually staying there for 10 days run down not busy food so so and heat Jesus the bedroom was like an oven .not to mention the bed the springs were fighting to get out. I actually thought stopping it might have changed but sadly not it's on par with the South cliff sorry but we probably won't be back for £1000 it was a waste of money. I hope it is addressed as you have some amazing staff from dining bar and front desk.pleasr make it better or you'll end up with no foot fall at all.

I would like to highly recommend the rooms, and I found the fan in the room to be a wonderful addition. The room was clean, spacious, and featured a comfortable bed and sofa, along with a large television. It provided everything necessary for a truly pleasant stay. Thank you very much.

Liked: Cleanliness
The cleanliness wasn't to a high standard and the building was tired and the repairs or replacement sections (new and old) didnt mix. The bar areas were modern, clean and friendly staff although there appeared to be young inexperienced staff in the restaurant that needed a shake up. We felt our beds could have been cleaner and questionable whether the bed linen had been changed.

Night spent in a broom cupboard

Apparently I booked a small double room. Last time we stayed here (two years ago) we had a very large double room and that was what we were expecting this time Imagine our surprise in finding a room not much larger than a broom cupboard. So if you are booking a room here make sure you are booking a large room if you want a double. The hotel was full but there seemed to be few people about. It was very quiet when we returned from a function at about 21.30 There is limiting parking provided by the hotel. Parking on the road outside (Earl's Avenue) needs a £7.00 a day permit from the hotel. There is free parking on the Leas - turn right immediately after the hotel. Breakfast was OK. Nothing really to excite those who love breakfasts. Staff all very friendly and helpful.
