"Restless night on 1st"

5.0

What I liked most about the hotel was how comfortable and welcoming it felt from the moment I arrived. The staff were friendly, professional. The room was clean, spacious, and well-maintained, with everything I needed for a relaxing stay.

Unfortunately, there were several aspects of my stay that I did not enjoy. The main issue was the excessive noise from the room above. There were constant squeaking and movement noises throughout the night and early morning, which made it very difficult to sleep and get proper rest. Tried to call reception no answer to ask if I could be moved. Never answered the phone so yes also a downfall. I also noticed a lack of consideration for noise levels in the corridors. Staff and guests were often talking and moving around loudly, particularly in the morning, which added to the disturbance. It seemed that little attention was given to maintaining a quiet environment for guests. Overall, the noise issues significantly affected my stay and resulted in a poor experience.

"Will not stay again"

2.0

My husband was poorly, and left early to go A and E, so asked for a breakfast bag to take with us, but couldn't accommodate 😞. If we new about the theatre plus stay with 3 course meal before I booked, but couldn't cancel my room to put this in place, plus the free parking, £14 p night is a bit steep, but was free if book through them .The room was a little worn out, needs some touch up. The only thing that was a plus was I asked for a room with a bath, when we got to our room, there was no bath and luckily they were happy to find us a room with the bath. The theatre was straight opposite the hotel, that's why I booked it, but next time will book at the queens hotel, better experiences, and the bed was comfortable and pillows.

Staff wasn't very helpful, except the lady that changed our room

I could just see the sea.

We had a lovely stay but got blocked in the car park by a member of staff, who kept his mobile number in the window but he didn't answer it. My 13yr old daughter was with a group of friends and we were meant to be picking them up so that was not ideal

Room was small but we knew that as it was advertised as compact. It was fine for us. Breakfast good and the location was great just a few minutes from the gardens and the pier.

There was not anything that we did not like

Great location, clean & tidy

When booking a £160 per night room, my expectations were not for filled. Might have been my mistake for not double checking, but that price did not include breakfast nor parking. The bar was supposed to be open till 1am, but after queuing for 20 mins at 10.45pm, we discovered that the bar man was not supposed to be serving drinks but allowed everyone to go behind the bar to serves themselves whilst he just took the money.
