September 2024Outstanding. We had the most amazing stay here for two nights. Lunch/afternoon tea/dinner was stand out in the brasserie. The quality of the food and ingredients really stood out. The scones during afternoon tea were homemade too! Absolutely delicious. Some of the reviews we seen online before visiting made us feel very sceptical, however, the hotel itself is so lovely. It’s definitely a ‘classic’ feel which takes you back in time. Majority of the rooms are recently refurbished and the hallways are in the process of being refurbished - which demonstrates the management do care about the hotel. Massage and spa was 11/10. Thanks to all the lovely staff , particularly Ana on the front desk, Tomas the bar manager and the sweet lady who served us lunch and afternoon tea in the brassiere. Such a wonderful experience and we will definitely be returning!

October 2024I have stayed here about 4 times with my best friend - we have taken advantage of the amazing gin infused spa break deal each time. Can't fault this deal, it is superb value for money with an afternoon tea and 55 minute massage included along with three course evening meal, overnight stay with breakfast and £30 bar voucher which doesn't have to be spent on gin. The hotel itself is excellently located only a minute's walk from the beach, and it's at the quieter end of town so very peaceful. The rooms are clean and comfortable, the spa is a little tired perhaps, but otherwise clean and has everything you could want. The massages are always wonderful, the bar is excellently stocked, the staff are attentive and friendly, and the food is always above expectations. Looking forward to another visit very soon!

September 2024My Mum and I had an afternoon tea with a voucher my Mum was given for her Birthday. Staff were lovely and friendly. Food was yummy and presentation was spot on. The only thing was the scones were a bit hard. Hotel was neat and tidy. We felt like we were on the Titanic in the eating area, the floor was beautiful. The atmosphere was relaxing and peaceful. We are thinking of having a spa day here at some point. We would recommend this hotel, we think it's a great place to meet up with friends and family.

October 2024Very good staff, especially Kevin. Good spacious room. Excellent pool and hot tub. I would have given it 5 stars if the bed hadn't been so firm/ hard, resulting in a poor quality of sleep for me.
