Loved it
Pros:

Very nice breakfast, made to order and lovely homemade jam on our visit. Room was nice and spacious with nice view of the seafront and the bar was nice to drop in on whilst the weather was a bit damp outside.

Cons:

We had a room on the top floor, so it was a bit of a trek up the 6 or so flights of stairs, but made for a good work out after the breakfast

Purely stunning hotel.
Pros:

The hotel was absolutely stunning!!! Fresh and beautifully decorated all through!!! Even had a silver cross pram that was an absolutely fabulous addition!!!! The landlady spoke so fondly of her family who had used it all through the years, was very sentimental and warming!!!

Cons:

4 flights of stairs lol. The room was beautiful, but close to the top!! We certainly worked our fab brekkie off!!!

Friendly owners, great breakfast, wonderfully presented all in a great location
Pros:

The hotel was beautifully presented and decorated to a high standard. Spotlessly clean and always smelt lovely too. The owners were very friendly and provided a wonderful breakfast with a good choice of options. The location was very good as Wilton Parade tram stop is almost opposite the hotel or a 15 minute stroll into town. There is limited parking out front, but there is an option to buy a permit for £10 a day to park just to the side of the hotel (limited number of permits available). Alternatively you can park in the neighbouring hotel The Grand for a 24 hour rate of £12, which can be bought online.

Cons:

A very minor point, but bigger towels would be good! Other than that we can’t think of any issues.

Ein Erlebnis, das ich im nächsten Jahr wiederhole
Pros:

Die Freundlichkeit des Personals, der Umgang der Hotelgäste miteinander. Der Ausblick vom Hotel auf das Meer, die gute Anbindung an die Innenstadt und die Pünktlichkeit und Verlässlichkeit der öffentlichen Verkehrsmittel.

Cons:

Das kontinentale Frühstück unterschied sich kaum vom britischen. Aber zum Glück war mir das bekannt.
