The rooms are spacious but the place looks cheap and rundown. ##### Chad Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Michael Sep 20, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Very run down staff at the front desk were terriblw ##### Michael Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Deborah Sep 19, 2025 Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities It was uniquely shabby, tired, ‘unloved’ and certainly overstated in its promotion ##### Deborah Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ruth Sep 5, 2025 Liked: Staff & service The hotel is a grand old lady who has seen better days but is rather tired and frayed. However the view is super, rooms as clean as they can be, breakfast plentiful and varied, and the staff were helpful and friendly. ##### Ruth Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carol Jun 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The staff and the food are great, and the sea view is amazing. ![View from room](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e6b446a6-795d-4a78-b696-cfc3d702b56d-1750945114452.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![At the harbour](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f3b65fe3-e2fd-4e6f-9e3f-b47661155241-1750945115805.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![View from pulpit Hill](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/10d535ce-51bf-4286-bf55-70e96de663ea-1750945115715.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Carol Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Bryan Aug 20, 2025 Quaint, but needs some maintenance.

A bit shabby but the sea view and friendly breakfast made up for that and I got decent value for the money. On arrival, it felt more like arriving at a car park with a hotel attached to it, rather than a hotel with a car park. Guests are not allowed in the hotel car park without a specific separate booking which somewhat negated the warmth of welcome. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0003cdc6-9088-4bda-b69f-9dc3261c020f-1756811469347.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ebdeae43-ddb9-4c22-abce-66f6bab1e487-1756811469748.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Iain Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Karen Sep 5, 2025 Liked: Staff & service Great location, beds were comfortable. The room was in great need of an upgrade. The bathroom was horrible moldy around the tub, the corridors smelled really badly of damp. I sometimes think when you book with trip adviser or Expedia you sometimes get the worst rooms. Wouldn’t stay there again. ##### Karen Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Andrew Aug 24, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities A sad and tired building in need of significant refurbishment. ##### Andrew Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Abigail Jun 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location. An older hotel but it has amazing views. ##### Abigail Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### John Sep 7, 2025 Liked: Amenities TBH, it's a place in need of the TLC; it obviously used to be a grand place, but it's getting a bit tired. The facilities are all you need, though - basic, but all there. The breakfasts were quite good: serve yourself and plenty of choice. We didn't see much of the staff, but they seem efficient enough. The location is lovely (if you get a sea view) and only a couple of minutes walk from the town centre. If this place had some money spent on it, it could be magnificent again. ##### John Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### sally Jun 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff were very friendly and helpful ##### sally Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Holiday Inn Glasgow Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Paisley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Glasgow-Airport.h809324.Hotel-Information) > > [No Man's Fort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portsmouth-Hotels-No-Mans-Fort.h11536410.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Northampton](https://www.expedia.ca/Northampton-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Northampton-Town-Centre.h12543.Hotel-Information) > > [Old Course Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/St-Andrews-Hotels-Old-Course-Hotel.h522846.Hotel-Information) > > [Unique Luxury Escapes](https://www.expedia.ca/Diss-Hotels-Unique-Luxury-Escapes.h29745570.Hotel-Information) > > [Atholl Palace Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Pitlochry-Hotels-Atholl-Palace-Hotel.h63637.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson BLU Hotel Durham](https://www.expedia.ca/Durham-Hotels-Radisson-BLU-Hotel-Durham.h2226171.Hotel-Information) > > [The Garrison](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-William-Hotels-The-Garrison.h24101351.Hotel-Information) > > [Bloc Hotel London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Bloc-Hotel-London-Gatwick-Airport.h6594190.Hotel-Information) > > [Heated indoor pool & spa, countryside holiday cottage near the beach & park](https://www.expedia.ca/Hastings-Hotels-Heated-Indoor-Pool-Spa.h18971402.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Hilton-London-Gatwick-Airport.h20753.Hotel-Information) > > [Bonkle House](https://www.expedia.ca/Wishaw-Hotels-Bonkle-House.h15996183.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Hamilton Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Hamilton-Park.h33810078.Hotel-Information) > > [The Green Hotel Golf & Leisure Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Kinross-Hotels-The-Green-Hotel-Golf-Leisure-Resort.h1130671.Hotel-Information) > > [Pinewood Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Ibstock-Hotels-Pinewood-Lodge.h17183221.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Peterborough-Marriott-Hotel.h691233.Hotel-Information) > > [Uig Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Portree-Hotels-Uig-Hotel.h2261957.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Hamilton by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Hamilton.h1889137.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury Beach House Rental with Hot Tub, 30 meters to Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Looe-Hotels-Luxury-Beach-House-Rental-With-Hot-Tub.h27313935.Hotel-Information) > > [Beautiful Country Cottage private Indoor Swimming Pool ,Hot Tub, & Games room.](https://www.expedia.ca/Swindon-Hotels-Beautiful-Country-Cottage-Private-Indoor-Swimming-Pool.h34047025.Hotel-Information) > > [Pennyhill Park Hotel And Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Bagshot-Hotels-Pennyhill-Park-Hotel-And-Spa.h517256.Hotel-Information) > > [Windermere Manor Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Windermere-Manor-Hotel.h22280374.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Gatwick Airport Central](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Travelodge-Gatwick-Airport-Central.h10160516.Hotel-Information) > > [JA Mar Hall Scotland](https://www.expedia.ca/Bishopton-Hotels-Mar-Hall-Golf-Spa-Resort.h1077249.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Inn by Radisson Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Peterborough.h2254377.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Glasgow Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Paisley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Glasgow-Airport.h519994.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stirling Highland Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Stirling-Hotels-The-Stirling-Highland-Hotel.h558482.Hotel-Information) > > [The Harlow Hotel By AccorHotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Harlow-Hotels-The-Harlow-Hotel-By-AccorHotels.h950.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Peterborough by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Peterborough.h281577.Hotel-Information) > > [Days Inn by Wyndham Hamilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Days-Inn-By-Wyndham-Hamilton.h3924670.Hotel-Information)
