The View Hotel

The breakfast choice was not so varied as it was on our previous stay. Due to a shortage of staff there were no poached eggs when I requested them plus a very limited choice of fresh fruit. The TV in our bedroom kept losing signal even after it was retuned by a member of staff. Apart from this the hotel is a great place to stay being close to the sea front and the staff are very obliging and friendly. Employing more staff in the restaurant would be of great help.

The hotel itself is pleasant, good views from sea facing rooms and a good breakfast although lacking in fresh fruit. Our room was very small but adequate. The hotel could do with updating as it looked worn in parts
