Pros +
- everything !
- Amazing location. Staff very friendly and helpful. Superb views on sea front rooms. Great food at dinner. Spa was good, sauna steam room and jacuzzi. Indoor pool lovely. Interior looks recently renovated and rooms clean and comfortable.
- Fabulous locationLoved the evening meal and the fitness classes. The staff were great, friendly and very helpful.The room was cold but very comfortable with the addition of a portable heater.
Cons -
- no - there was nothing !
- Although it’s an iconic art deco building, the outside despite regular paint jobs looks quite dated and it lacks the wow factor that balconies would provide. It’s also crying out for a rooftop bar but i guess there’s similar architectural constraints here. Having said all that I’d still recommend a stay here.
- Quality of coffee and the eggs at breakfast were very disappointing but the rest of the breakfast was good. Paid for two spa treatments (2x 1hr massage) - both only lasted exactly 45 minutes - the time spent relaxing in the wellness area with a cup of herbal tea should really NOT be included in the treatment time - the massage was advertised as £100 for an hour!

Lovely hotel amazing views of the beach
Nothing really didn’t have a sea view this time but still lovely room
The staff were attentive, kind and helpful View was amazing and spa was delightful I have no negative comments about our stay
Everything was perfect
My mum’s room looked out to the fabulous sea. The staff were adorable too
It’s a little old fashioned decor wise
Beautiful location staff lovely . Food was ok
Very warm small room
Had a single room non sea facing. Perfectly clean and adequate for my stay.
Gym equipment could have been better maintained, Smith machine bearings almost siezed.
The location and room were perfect. The breakfast was excellent with a very wide choice.
To be asked about newspapers on arrival. For the coffee machine to work and to be provided with supplies and instructions.
Restaurant and the wait staff were faultless.
Outdated rooms and lack of clarity around needing to book general spa facilities (steam/ sauna etc) in advance.
leaving for work before breakfast was open wasn't ideal, but the hotel afford room service before breakfast opened, that came each morning at the time i asked, excellent service
pool was a bit cold
Very welcoming entrance and staff were friendly, knowledgeable. Nothing was too much trouble.
The staff really went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable. The rooms with a sea view are worth the extra and the breakfast is a buffet which is great and there is lots of choice. I also used the thermal spa and went to a yoga class which were great.
I think that the quality of the meats for breakfast could be better.
Beautiful indoor swimming pool and jacuzzi looking over the sea. Lovely lounge are and excellent food.Fun, outgoing staff who were very welcoming.
The bedrooms need renovation and the bathrooms have rusted fittings. Noisy fans from the kitchen run all night.
Very nice location next to beach. We had. Lovely relaxing time with a lot of facilities available.
Friendly staff and great facilities. The food was also delicious.
ViewLocationWaiting staff very accommodating
Didn’t expect there to be so many children around.This made the pool unpleasant to use during the main part of the daySurprise present to us by children disclosed to us in advance of stay by reception
Outstanding views from sea facing rooms.Very friendly staff throughout.Incredible location.Very comfortable.
The jacuzzi was very foamy / scummy. The chlorine was so strong that my eyes were watering.Sauna and steamroom was dominated by loud teens.
Great location and helpful staff.Very good leisure facilities!
Food was average and expensive.Room was very warm for some reason, even with the windows open on a cool night, it was uncomfortable and difficult to sleep with the thick winter quilt in such a warm room. The radiator was not on!
Great location and exceptionally clean
Some of the staff especially in the restaurant were searley and unhelpful
Location is superb. The lounge is excellent
Our bedroom had very poor en-suite facilities. The shower was particularly difficult to use since it was in the bath.
