Very much enjoyed the hotel, once again, after our last trip 8 years ago. One lift was out of service the whole time, though, which sometimes caused difficulties. Otherwise, the staff were very helpful and friendly, the food was good and our room was very comfortable. The hotel is in a good location, but there is a lot of building work going on outside the hotel and this didn't always feel very safe.

Victoria

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Positive: The hotel itself lovely and clean. The housekeepers are lovely, polite and helpful. Now the negatives. If i had known the hotel was a building site i wouldn't have stayed there. The building works starts at 7.15am through to the evening. The nearby outside pool and private beach are not nearby. The hotel lacks information boards re the dining facilities, prices, opening times. The spa facilities are poorly signposted. The stairs to the spa section always have wet floor signs and a towel on the steps, this is a trip hazard for people with mobility issues.

Staff were very good. Put full effort in… but impossible to overcome the construction ongoing across the entire hotel. Shame we were not advised until check-in. When done it will be nice - and our room was spacious & well appointed - but the noise starts at 7am and resonates to all rooms.

The hotel is very central, close to public transport, nice promenade, relaxing area ideal for walks. Staff are ok and helpful. At the back where my room was, but, they are building something and it's quite noisy from early morning. I suggest to others to take a front room.

Lots of construction in and around hotel. Woken at 7am every morning (including weekend) by loud power tools being used on floor above. Dusty and smelly, just like a building site, which it actually was. Should be decent when work is complete, that didnt help me though.
