Didn’t expect too much as was overnight stay for early ferry trip for family of 6 with little research. Staff were welcoming and hotel modern and room very clean. They got up extra early to give us continental breakfast. Great location, nice bar , recommended! Far exceeded our expectations Thankyou.

10/10 Exceptional

We booked this for its proximity to family after flying in from Australia and I didn’t expect much. While not a fancy hotel, we had a lovely stay with our young family. We arrived late and check in was made very very easy. Our room was huge, very clean and very comfortable. Staff the next morning were very accomodating and we enjoyed breakfast. Thanks for taking care of us!

Weekend away.

The only bad point was the awful mattress. For me it was just worn out. But, the price paid and everything else was unbeatable. The full English was amazing value for money cooked just right and lots of it, superb. A lovely stay in a great seafront room. Would use this hotel again.
