Only notified about lift not working when i arrived and i was on second floor . Luckily im fit but someone else may have struggled. Could not get a printed invoice on checkout - promised to email me one hasn't materialised yet . No privacy in room as is overlooked so you need to keep the curtains closed at all times.

The hotel is in a lovely location, great spot uphill above the shores. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Parking wasn't too bad, however be mindfull some charge all the till 5pm and some 8pm, which you can get at the hotel to pay park. The room was very spacious, unfortunately the ground level there was high fumes of cooking smells, it might be the restaurant cooking dinner. Disappointed about the en suite bathroom, it was very small, however the spacious room made up for it. The restaurant food was ok, nothing bad, however nothing amazing. I would stay here again, just purely for location and views.

Seaside View

Nicely renovated seaside hotel with a pleasant cliff-top location. There's a modern llift which is vey welcome if you’re on the upper floors. One issue would be the lack of water pressure on top floor (4th floor) but the shower still functions ok.

Room was lovely. Even slightly overlooking the sea. Was very clean and the hotel was stylish. Very friendly staff and catered Well with finding us a table at dinner time even when it was limited staff and no tables. Food took quite a while to come out but understandable when short staffed, staff were rushed off their feet, even reception lady was helping out in the restaurant. and slightly on the expensive side but was very tasty. Worth the wait. Would definitely stay here again. Great value for money too. Lovely hotel

Ultra clean. Big drawback is parking and the is info on hotels.com is at best ambiguous. Minor moan is that reception staff absent on arrival for about 15 minutes.

Great location but dated

Location is great but for the price it’s quite dated. The bed was very firm which isn’t my personal preference. The rooms could do with a bit of a revamp but the bathrooms are massive. If you are booking for a wedding don’t bother as there’s no plugs near mirrors or full length mirrors to get ready with. For a hotel called the view it does live up to that if you are at the front of the hotel, side rooms did have a sea view but was mostly looking over a burnt hotel next door.
