We’ve stayed here and it’s been great everytime but this last time we stayed the 3 nights we stayed they had a party in the function room that went past midnight all 3 nights keeping us awake

We didn't like the staff attitude when we tried to make a complaint, lack of facilities in the room and noise from the function room downstairs. The view from the room however was great as was the breakfast.

Room was large and views lovely as had a seafront room. Breakfast was very good, cooked fresh and plenty of it. Lady serving was lovely. Room dated but clean, bathroom TINY! Biggest issue was the hotel staying it has parking. This actually equates to 5 spaces which the staff use. Anyone arriving in the summer, or with mobility issues could find themselves unable to park

The Esplanade Hotel was great value for money, (Room 32) We would highly recommend it for a comfortable night and a most amazing and enjoyable breakfast. The front desk receptionist (Lilly) was very helpfull.
