Lovely stay as usual, but I must say, that although the Bar is supposed to be open 24x7, some theatre goers and I, were waiting 15 mins to get served at the bar, we were told by the Night Porter, that he had just come on!! I think if they advertise this service, bar 24x7, then it should be service at all times, as the Theatre goers said, it was one of the main reasons they booked the Hotel, so they could get a drink after the performance. Everything else was great service, Spa facilities are very good, pool open early for a swim, 7am and they have members too who use it!! Great facilities!! Great stay!!

Good location, 10 mins to the pier (20 back though !) We stayed in the Lodge and the room was fine. Good breakfast, plenty of choice. My only grumble was the bathroom. As an older person I had a problem getting in/out of the bath in order to shower. No additional rails.

The hotel had a nice indoor pool, a good breakfast and the staff were all helpful and friendly. It’s a short walk to the seafront and into town. Our room was in the lodge - a separate building but adjacent to main hotel, all clean and a decent sized room. Small print stuff…Our parking was chargeable but I think I read somewhere that it’s free if you book directly with the hotel. We also paid a £50 refundable deposit per room per night.
