Great location, comfortable just wish parking was free for guests in the hotel car park we had disabilities and no.concession offered which was disappointing. ##### Jackie Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Emma Jul 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Comfortable stay, parking costs unnecessary Hotel was conveniently located and a good standard of cleanliness. Room was small but comfortable. Service from the operations manager was exceptional - very friendly and attentive, thank you. My only gripe would be with the cost of parking as we booked through an operator. A further £24 to park for two days is a bit steep considering the cost of the room and other services. ##### Emma Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mr Jan Mar 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovelt hotel Lovely hotel near the sea.

Our room was rather dusty with cobwebs on the balcony. It feels like no investment has been made in this hotel in a long time, which is a shame. Great location though and nice spa.
