Une seule nuit mais cela nous a permis une super ballade le long de la côte.
Pros:

Le personnel est adorable et très serviable

Cons:

Juste que c’est très près de la route et un peu bruyant mais rien de méchant

Very clean, comfortable but tired hotel in a prime position.
Pros:

The location of the Carlton cannot be faulted, right on the promenade and our room had a sea view. The room and bathroom were very clean.

Cons:

Our room had quiet a deep bay window but no blinds, netting or anything to obscure you from the general public and some very busy parking bays. When pulling the curtains they went straight across, rather than round the bay window, impacting on available space and making the room appear much smaller.
Although not the hotels fault parking, or long term parking isn't readily available.
