"Amazing, historic building with many original features such as a beautiful tiled hallway and original call bells in the corridor. However, the decor and soft furnishings are all a little tired and dated in the common areas and overdue for an upgrade.
We stayed in the Deluxe Double room with ocean view courtesy of the oriel window. Bed was comfortable, usual tea/coffee tray provided. A mini fridge would have been welcome; especially with the hot weather. Again, the curtains and furniture all looked a little dated. The room was large with lovely original features. It would not take much to make this a spectacular room to stay in.
Bath and toilet were clean, but the skirting boards had a film of dust.
Breakfast was not included but we paid £9 each to have a continental breakfast. The viennoiserie were all gone when we arrived. I would have expected a selection of ham and cheese. There were no meats on offer and the only cheese was some pre-packaged fingers of Double Gloucester. There was a selection of cereals, some yoghurt with various fruits, and some breads, crumpets and waffles on offer. All perfectly adequate for the price, but not exceptional.
The location is excellent. You can leave your car and walk for 5 mins to get to the prom. Its a 10-15min stroll to get to the pier and the boat trips.
Can recommend the Pier Head Reastaurant for fabulous seafood dinners."
