Sehr gute Lage, Preis/Leistung stimmt. Hoteleinrichtung ist dem Alter entsprechend.
Pros:

Ist ein sehr grosses Hotel, weshalb Buffet nicht so individuell gestaltet werden konnte. Personal war sehr freundlich und hat uns alle Wünsche erfüllt. Auswahl Brot war eher unterdurchschnittlich.

Cons:

Hotel ist in die Jahre gekommen. Architektur ist nicht mein Stil.

This is one of those traditional hotels that you look forward to visiting again
Pros:

The spacious room with a view of the sea was a delight - we were fortunate to enjoy the bonus of seeing three whales in the bay on arrival. The breakfasts are of a good standard and other meals suited us well. Arniston is a perfect get away from it all destination.

Cons:

Nothing comes to mind

Rejuvenating short stay.
Pros:

Arniston is a small seaside town. The hotel overlooks a bay from a prime site next to a fishing boatyard. The balcony views are very peaceful. Staff are locals, well trained and helpful. Food is available on site.
