Had a comfortable couple of nights whilst my boiler was out of action. Clean, well appointed single room with modern en-suite bathroom. Slept very well. A nice old traditional hotel, some areas are a little worn / dated, but I understand looking after a property of this size and age is no small undertaking. Everyone was friendly and professional, from reception to the bar and dining staff. I got a great rate, with breakfast included, really was excellent value. Thank you Queens hotel.

Breakfast food wasn't up to the standard we get at comparable hotels. The room was clean, comfortable and overlooked the sea which was good but could do with updating. The TV was tiny and the coffee/tea making set up was very basic. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Dog friendly.

The best thing about this hotel is the staff. Every one of them is excellent. Friendly and helpful. I arrived off the sleeper and they wen out of their way to make sure I got into my room early.

This is a beautiful hotel right on the promenade with sea views. There are some great things about this hotel, and there are some things that they certainly could do better. The staff are amazing and extremely helpful and very friendly. The breakfast was good. The dining room is nice, food was good and has great sea views. The bar/pub was nice. The staff are very friendly and helpful, but it could certainly use a lot more seating. They’ve got a lot of upholstered chairs, but they certainly could get a lot more seating if they change the type of seating that they have. Now for the bad; the rooms are very old and need updating. Even just some paint where everything’s chipped and redo the grout in the bathtub/shower where all the mildew is would be helpful. The bathtub also needs a shower mat. It was extremely slippery and could be dangerous for people that are older and have balance issues. The bathroom had old linoleum probably from the 1950s and that should be changed out. The bedding leaves a lot to be desired. The pillows were flat. The bed was very soft and saggy and the duvet insert was more like a flat pillow, which is very strange. I’ve never seen anything like it. Most duvets are either feather or some alternative, but to have a flat thick piece of foam inside is very weird. The sheets were also too small for the bed and would not stay tucked in and the mattress pad wouldn’t stay on. I know these are little things, but these little things make the stay much more com

Fantastic location facing the sea, so breakfast at sunrise was spectacular. An easy walk to local amenities. Lovely big room with (unexpectedly) a sea view. Soft white bath towels and comfortable bed. Very pretty reception area and staircase. Very nice breakfast options. Bedroom carpet was quite stained (it looked like tea).

The hotel has a good location within walking distance from the station, which is very convenient. However, I found the rooms to be quite basic, and the breakfast options were limited. My room also only had a view of the back of some flats, which was a little disappointing
