A pleasant place to stay
Very pleasant staff make you welcome from arrival to departure. Not sure if the restuarant was operational but this could be a benefit some would desire. The rooms were adequate but lacked a bedside table.

Everything was smooth, and service above and beyond. I did not personally love the layout of the rooms especially in terms of plugs, as these could be difficult to find (even behind someone's head on the bed headboard), however this is a very tiny thing and generally speaking everything went well and was easy. Breakfast was delicious and service attentive. Thank you

Pullinger stay
The hotel was lovely and so were the staff it was clean and comfortable, the only thing that ruined it for us was the toilet flush wasn’t working so we had to go down to reception everyone we need the toilet even during the night, and the constant flow of water coming from the toilet kept us awake .

The hotel was beautiful surrounded by amazing views! It was close to all of the local amenities which makes it perfect for a walk down to the seafront for food/drinks

We stayed in a junior suite and it had beautiful views and was really spacious. Having the small kitchen was really handy. The bed was huge and the whole place immaculately clean. The staff are so friendly and nothing is too much trouble for them. We have a wonderful stay

The staff at the hotel could not have been more accommodating, even allowing us to keep our rooms (at no cost) on departure day as there were problems at the ferry port.

Just back from the Isle of Wight Scooter Rally.
Lovely friendly staff, I didn't get the lads name who worked behind reception & served us drinks at the bar, but he was super friendly and helpful.
Accommodation clean and comfortable, although drawers in kitchen area in need of a wipe out. Breakfast was very well presented and good quality. Lovely selection of cereals & pastries.
Very enjoyable stay and would definitely go back to this hotel.
