Lovely stay. Room was a bit dated and tired, but it was comfortable. The bar serves great cocktails. Breakfast was excellent but service was a bit slow (never got our 2nd pot of tea).

Lovely staff, the property is very grand including the dining room and lobby. Room itself slightly outdated but lovely amenities. Spa area also slightly outdated but enjoyable. Staff were wonderful!
Nish, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great property, amazing location as it is right at the beach. There is parking onsite, however, it gets full quickly. That said, there is ample parking around the hotel. The breakfast was okay, not great. The hotel is dog friendly and they had kept treats and bed for the dog in the room. Only downside is that the sea facing rooms dont have an aircon and in 26C heat, that was something which was needed.
Sharat, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

It’s a historical building - lots of character and grand looking! Close to the beach and seven sister cliffs. Some staff were super helpful, others were not. The building is old and some areas need work (ie. pool had missing tiles on the steps. Ceiling is peeling in areas.) it’s old but still nice. The doormen were all wonderful and very helpful!
Ivan, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Staff were exceptional. Attentive, smiley, knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient. Poached eggs on one day were the best ever. The hotel is a step back in time and the management have organised it well.
William, 2-night trip

All the are polite and helpful, evening meals are excellent, had a great time, although have been several to the hotel and looking forward to the next.
TERRY, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

The Hotel is under renovation, unfortunately the property is very run down. We decided to cut the stay short
Maria, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

I liked the parking guy He was very helpful and saved us a parking space instead of us parking on the street. At breakfast however we were unimpressed. The front of house was surly and unwelcoming and the junior staff not empowered to make decisions themselves as when we asked to be moved away from the dirty dishes stand it was a case of "I will have to ask my supervisor first' so we left. The room was three quarters empty.
David Andrew, 2-night trip

Linda, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We had a great 1-night stay in March 2025. The service from the staff was impeccable and we were made to feel very welcome. The room was clean and tidy, and functional with a very large bathroom. The included amenities (indoor pool, steam room, jacuzzi) and complimentary breakfast was outstanding. We would definitely stay again.
Ryan, 1-night trip
