I was really impressed with my room. It was also very clean. Bed was comfortable. Staff were brilliant upon arrival and also when i departed. Only negative feedback i give is i don't think they should charge customers for wanting to leave their luggage on day of departure. Customers who don't drive will more than likely want to leave luggage somewhere safe but i feel like this service should be free.

Great location

We had a weekend stay in Monsell Hotel in a ground floor twin room which was great for mum as she has problem with stairs. The hotel is well located only a 10 minute stroll from the clock tower, shops & beach just a little further. The hotel is clean & has basic amenities, the staff are welcoming & friendly.

Cheap and not so cheerful! Despite some minor redecorating still very worn out and basic. When i went to order food I was told the chef had left so no kitchen or bar available at all. Very unacceptable as two small children were included in the booking and no email received to forewarn us so no alternatives could be arranged.
