Never again

Have stayed many times and nothing improves. The overall attitude seems to be one of indifference- its as if management simply isn't bothered. Decoration is poor paper pealing stair carpit worn and needs a hovering, room chairs worn out. The front desk is constantly understaffed with only 1 receptionist at busy times, and the door locks are temperamental which is an inconvenience. On the plus side its a good car park but overall the hotel continues to disappoint

Our first stay at this hot but it will be our last

The standard of this hotel is not good. It looked very run down, which is sad as it was an impressive hotel many years ago. The reception staff who booked us in were not professional. She said she would write out our drinks vouchers, which we purchased, but never did. We also booked for afternoon tea at 3pm. However, she forgot to tell the kitchen staff, so we sat there waiting for it. My partner had to go and ask but she told us where to go. It was our first stay at this hotel and we won't be staying again.

Disgusting

Late check in confined our first night. Didn’t get a room until 6:00pm. Then had to change due to it not being fit for purpose. Dirty rooms, poor service, very low standards. Emailed for a refund which was promised on departure however refunds have disappeared from my card once we have got home. Staff uninformed, overall experience disgusting won’t be going back.

Lovely stay

I stayed here with my partner for the 2025 air show weekend. It’s a great location on the sea front and our room had gorgeous sea views. If you’re interested to see what it was like to experience luxury at the turn of the century you can see it here. Very dated, of course, but with lots of stunning original features. We parked here for 2 nights, costing £20. The bar was well priced and the room a great size. My only complaints are that our room was situated between 2 chimneys, and on an extremely windy weekend this made for a very noisy bed time! Luckily my partner can sleep through anything and I’d taken earplugs with me. Secondly, the bed was only a double so felt rather cramped after sleeping in a king. Still, no reason to mark down - it was a great stay.
