A really lovely hotel which is right on the sea front with lots of amazing restaurants and bars close by. A nice and clean hotel with the most amazing breakfast and overall service.
The staff were excellent and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. We had a couple of issues with the booking they handled it very well. The staff are a credit to hotel. Breakfast choices were excellent, location is perfect. Allocated Parking just behind the hotel is ideal.
After visiting many hotels this summer our family was overjoyed with this stay. The experience from the initial moment to the last was first class. I would like to thank every member of staff, each and every individual was happy to go above and beyond to make our trip a memorable one. We will be returning.
Really nice stay - welcomed in arrival and given our keys. Lovely family room overlooking the sea front. Clean and tidy throughout. Parking allocated out the back which was really handy.
Only tiny issue was our pup wasn’t checked in, which caused a slight issue at breakfast as we had to go in the bar area but soon sorted out and had a lovely breakfast.
Would love to return at some point
The hotel was well kept and clean . The staff were excellent, very helpful. Food was great.
Very close to the beach, just across the road and the town just around the corner.
We were very happy with our stay.
Lovely staff, spotless hotel, and superb seafront location. Even our dog was given a breakfast sausage. Very friendly and welcoming. My only concern was that the hotel is advertised as having parking. Technically yes this is correct but it’s extremely limited and we were told it’s not available after booking.
Such friendly staff- from main desk sorting taxi’s and parking -
fab breakfast menu & the most amazing scrambled egg!
Comfortable lounge area with Evening quizzes for those who wanted.
Right on seafront.
Perfect
The room was nice but the pull out bed was rock hard lot of noise coming from below it was like a fire door slamming constantly, and above was noisy. Staff were friendly breakfast was nice
Our room was beautifully styled, loved the eco and fairtrade drinks and toilettries in the room, everywhere well presented and spotless, nice food and wonderful staff
Lovely little room with the most wonderful beach view balcony. Super friendly staff too.

We were both very happy with room, unfortunately was right at top of hotel, but didn't mind as we were out the way of buzy floors below.
Good morning breakfast, staff very helpful.
Bar and reception area good.
Would stay again.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Food was delicious. Great shower. Room had a balcony with a superb sea view. Room very clean but was small. Would definitely come again.
I had an amazing three day Stay at the Kingswood! Beautiful Hotel, superb meals, good choices on the menu and beautifully cooked and very good portions. The Hotel has excellent and kind, caring and very efficient staff who all went above and beyond to make my stay excellent. I loved my stay so much and I shall definitely be returning.
