Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had a mix of positives like well-decorated cozy rooms and some overpriced aspects, but the Sea View Room was a highlight. The service was a hit and miss with exceptionally nice encounters but some indifferent moments. The location was a hit with a beautiful sea view, but needed a bit of refreshing. Dining offered good choices with a lively atmosphere in the bar. Overall, a decent place with room for improvements in pricing and ambiance.
My stay at the hotel was a delightful experience overall. The rooms were spacious and lovely, with a beautiful view, but I noticed a few things that seemed 'added on'. The location was fabulous, offering superb views of the North Sea, but it could benefit from more seating by the pool. The dining options were good enough to start the day, but lacked some variety in the buffet service. The facilities were well-maintained, making my stay comfortable.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The spacious room wasn't ready until late afternoon, which was a bit frustrating as I had plans after a long journey. However, the front-facing room I received was not what I expected. The service was a mix of excellence and inattentiveness, with a lack of public areas to relax. The location was great for walking to the Main Street but had some maintenance issues. The dining experience had its highlights and disappointments. Despite some flaws, the hotel offers luxury in a quiet location with some credit card bathrobes.
Although the hotel is located in a nice area with beautiful views, the dining experience and the noise from neighboring rooms can be a drawback. Nevertheless, the service was mostly helpful, and the rooms were clean and comfortable.
Our stay at the hotel was overall enjoyable, with comfortable rooms and friendly service. However, there were some issues with dining and a few maintenance issues that could be improved. The location was convenient, and the facilities were decent.
The hotel rooms were very big, very clean, and had everything we needed. Initially, the room looked lovely with a marvelous outlook, but the curtain was seriously ripped, and the room felt run down. Priced at over £300 per night, it started to look tired and was too warm for a good night's sleep. I was surprised to see dogs in the hotel.
The hotel has a lovely setting with amazing views, but the rooms were filthy, covered in discarded towels, and stank of sewage. The service was attentive but a bit off-putting at times. The location offers spectacular views and is a short walk to town with shops and restaurants, but there were some cleanliness issues observed. The dining experience was a mix of nicely presented dishes and long waits in chaotic surroundings.
