Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a nice seafront location close to shops and attractions. The room with a balcony view was disappointing due to cleanliness issues, but the service was outstanding. The dining experience lacked proper explanations but had some lovely aspects. Overall, a good choice for the location but with room for improvement in cleanliness and dining clarity.
The hotel is conveniently located right on the seafront, offering comfortable and clean rooms. The staff is friendly and helpful. However, the dining experience could be better with a more varied breakfast selection. The hotel has good facilities and is a great value for money.
The hotel is in a fantastic location, close to the shops and the promenade. The staff is accommodating and friendly, with a plentiful breakfast. The room was on the small side but very hot, and the lift was a bonus. A fabulous location overall with great service.
