First impressions of the premises were good, the bar area, lounge and dining area were clean and tidy and the decor was nice. Although it did get very hot and towards the end of the week smelt of fried food and needed some fresh air. The staff were lovely and helpful. Breakfast was plentiful, well organised and had everything you could want, very tasty. We had a family room, but there was limited space and it was difficult to dry towels as there was no space to hang them. There was some storage space of hangers and drawers. The room was suitably clean, but as a quilt cover wasn't put on, there were stains on the quilt and not all were from people leaving wet towels on them. Some effort should be made for general maintainance in the room - drawer handles came off, the toilet roll holder and toilet seat were loose, the electric shower leaked from the main unit and when you turned on the hot tap on, the whole thing moved. Light switches only had one screw so may be a hazard. We wasnt aware of the £5 parking fee, but found free parking elsewhere.

Great location and only downside was the parking. The hotel was lovely and welcoming. The room was very accommodating with 2 singles and double. Breakfast was really good

October Family Stay
I stayed in this Hotel with my partner and 2 Children for a family break to see the illuminations. With every hotel there is Good Points and Bad Points, but overall I would stay here again: Good Points, the breakfast was amazing and all the family really enjoyed it. The staff were excellent and very welcoming. The location is perfect for all the Centre attractions. Bad Points, we was on the top floor (room 24) and it was an effort getting the children up but that’s expected if you book late. The beds was not very comfy but ok for 3 nights. The Main issue was parking as we had to park off site which costs £25 and was a walk away with the cases. Overall we enjoyed the stay but we would ask for a different room if booking again. Thanks.

The staff were amazing! They were polite and genuine. You could tell they cared about their job and had fun doing it. I loved hearing them singing along to music. The beer garden was a nice place to enjoy a beer in the afternoon and my coffee in the morning.

Good afternoon Nik, sorry somehow your review slipped past, it hay have been whilst the girls were singing. your review is very welcoming and I have shared it with all the staff. The beer garden has been an amazing success and we hope to add a speaker system to it shortly to enhance the experience. Regards Gary

The owner let us park up and check in early as we we're booked in to see a show in the afternoon. Room was nice and clean and the breakfast was very good the next morning. I would definitely stay here again.

Service was excellent and staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and as described on website. Within walking distance of the beach, arcades and tower. We had a great view of the tower from our bedroom which the kids were very excited about.

NYE stay
Good location and cleanliness was great ! The only slight problem was that the room temperature was warm - maybe a consequence of staying on the second floor - but pleasant staff and helpful, attentive to any needs and requests we had. Great New Year's eve break all in all

Pleasant enough hotel for what we needed it for.
Pleasant hotel, basic but that's fine when all you need is a bed at night and shower in morning. Clean towels given for everyone and cooked breakfast in morning was good. Beds could have been more comfy but can't complain for price we paid. Staff friendly and parking just up the street so nice and handy. Would use hotel again.
