Restaurant staff amazing. ##### Christina Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael Sep 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is the place to be if you arrive by train and no better base for the Agatha Christie Festival or anything at Torre Abbey. The walk along the waterfront is elegant and safe, even at night. The staff are wonderful and if you like good, old-fashioned service and a traditional English breakfast, you will love it. The pool, bar and lounges are spacious and comfortable and the rooms are clean. ![One has arrived.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/daf746b9-94b3-42ee-b3d2-35110785c3a5-1758384104916.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Agatha Christie honeymooned here.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/137f0935-bcca-4744-9a25-1c6d37d7a85d-1758384144161.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Full !

The rooms are stifling, you could grow tropical plants in the bedrooms. ##### Andrew Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Nigel Aug 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I have stayed here a few times I do like this hotel, out of season and in the busy season 😊 ##### Nigel Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Richard Jul 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Loved our stay the staff are friendly and the pool area is nice good do with a few more loungers thou. ##### Richard Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tara Apr 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Really lovely relaxing stay ##### Tara Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Sarah Aug 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Location is amazing - right by the station, the beach and the festival we were attending. Hotel bar is gorgeous but swimming pool area needs some attention and more loungers. Rooms at the top of the hotel are incredibly hot but a fan is provided (we only found that the next morning!).
