Pros:

2nd visit here , lovely hotel , very clean , food was lovely , all staff very friendly. Stayed in RM10 overlooking the waterways , lovely room ,very comfortable bed , two seats by windows you can just sit and people watch .beautiful view across the dunes out to sea .parking to the back .

Cons:

Rooms to the front overlooking waterways can be noisy cos main road and a busy road quite late at night and early morning , It didn't bother us even with windows open but it could some people . It's all about the views .

Relatively comfortable but not worth the cost. Would not stay there again.
Pros:

MEALS: The Breakfast was enjoyable in terms of food quality.

LOCATION: The hotel was relatively close to the town and on the Promenade.

BAR: The staff were nice and selection of drinks was average to good.

Cons:

BREAKFAST: While the food quality was good residents should be allowed to have self-service rather than everything being brought to you.

ROOMS: While the bed was relatively comfy, the heater did not work and room rather compact. TV did not work fully: Some channels did not come through.

VALUE FOR MONEY: I would have expected a bigger room and greater selection on the dinner menu.

Very enjoyable, superb food, comfy bed and great shower
Pros:

All staff were very helpful, happy and polite. I only stayed one night and the evening meal was delicious, with plenty of choice in the menu. Other residents said how much they enjoyed the breakfast, which I couldn’t take advantage of as I had to leave every early. The bed was very comfy, the shower was powerful, which I like and stayed at a good temperature, as did the room. The hotel and surroundings were quiet, so I slept well, which I needed after a long drive and was ready to play in a golf tournament the next day. The hotel was very clean

Cons:

There wasn’t enough room for me to park my car in the hotel car park at the rear, but as with any other issue - the staff happily sorted it out and I parked outside the front of the hotel in a bay which was free after 6pm

Not very clean, but the excellent breakfast and warm, welcoming staff made the stay enjoyable overall.
Pros:

The breakfast was excellent. The Full Cookie was very filling, and tea, coffee and juice were also provided, along with toast, jam and butter.

The staff were very warm, friendly and welcoming.

Cons:

The room was not very clean, with some curly hairs and black spots on the bed, and the bathroom sink was partially blocked, so the water took quite a while to drain.

Unfortunately we would not use this hotel again and I fail to comprehend how Booking.Com can rare this Hotel as high as
Pros:

The communal areas such as the bar and dining area were well decorated and comfortable.
The staff were pleasant and helpful too.

Cons:

Horrific parking access to rear of property, through a very narrow entrance between two walls, the car sensors were going crazy. Our bedroom, room 35 on the top floor, was in my opinion, very poor. It had good quality furniture, but needed decoration throughout, the bathroom was poor, no window covering and a shower rail that needed tightened and flooring that was ill fitting. A very poor and certainly not worth the money room.
