The superior room was excellent: very spacious and well designed. The fact someone had thought to include a dressing table area and it had a mirror, a light, a seat and a plug socket was a welcome change from the norm. Lots of good light, excellent air con, super bathroom and comfy bed. The continental breakfast that is included is a definite cut above average and would easily be worth paying for were it not included. We will definitely stay again.

Fantastic staff - helpful, polite, engaged, warm. Delicious and good quality continental breakfast, lovely bathroom amenities, very clean, charming cups and glasses, nice art. Beds are on the softer side. The hotel has been very thoughtfully redesigned and decorated from a mostly abandoned building, which does mean the soundproofing between rooms isn’t substantial but the charm and character balances the occasional noise.

The staff were very welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. The room was clean and well organised to suit any guests needs. The bed was very comfortable. There was no TV. The continental breakfast included in price was exceptional, with a good selection of local produce and very tasty home made granola. Other cooked breakfast options were available at a cost. Parking was available locally at a reasonable fee and supported by the hotel. The location was ideal, opposite Turners Contemporary Gallery, so close to the beach. Good views from room and from a rooftop seating area. Would definately go back there.
