Property Description

Prominent Location and Convenience

Blend of Victorian and Art Deco Architecture
Externally, The Regent Hotel showcases a unique combination of Victorian and 1930's Art Deco design, creating a visually appealing facade. Internally, the seamless merge of both styles creates a spacious and inviting atmosphere with well-positioned public foyers and lounges.

De locatie. Aan het water en de haven. In het centrum

Cons:

Buitenzijde zag er verwaarloosd uit. Binnen was het redelijk

Great location
Pros:

Great location
We saw this hotel a few years ago when it was almost falling apart so to see it now done up is lovely but think it still has a few things needed to be done.
Room small but very comfortable

Cons:

Our double glazed window had blown so not much of a view.
The front of the hotel could do with sprucing up, a repaint and tidy.

Appearances can be deceiving..
Pros:

It was lovely inside and the bed was huge and really comfy. Very modern and a good sized TV.

Cons:

When we arrived outside we thought it was going to be nasty inside as the outside looked awful...needs repainting etc but inside it's beautiful
