Complaints

Dear Hotels.com, I am writing to formally complain about the hotel we booked through your platform. The condition of the hotel was extremely disappointing and completely different from the pictures advertised on Hotels.com. The room was filthy, the bathroom door was broken, and overall, the place was in such poor condition that it caused us anxiety and stress. We couldn’t sleep at all due to the unhygienic and uncomfortable conditions. When we raised these issues with the hotel reception, they dismissed our concerns, stating that since we booked through Hotels.com, we needed to file a complaint with you directly. Despite this awful experience, we were told that hotel.com paid them only £39.00 for that room which is not the room sold to us. We trust that you will take this complaint seriously and request a full refund for our stay. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Sincerely, Navid

Needs work, but the staff are brilliant

The hotel does need a major refurb, but for the price you pay for a sea-view room you don't expect perfection. The room was small, dated, but clean. The bathroom was the same, but the shower was fine, nice and warm. We had a really good time in the bar later on - really good atmosphere. The staff are brilliant. The hotel just needs updating and it would be perfect, the location is brilliant, just near South Pier and a tram stop. Get there early if you want a parking spot, the car park is only small. We enjoyed our stay.

Upon arrival, there was nobody on Reception, we had to phone to get someone to let us in. After getting to our room, initially, the room looked clean and tidy but upon closer inspection, there were lots of cobwebs and large spiders. There was a clump of hair on the side, the inside of the drawers were full of crumbs. The kettle was clean but was placed on a unit with no plug socket meaning that to use the kettle, we had to move it to a different part of the room. The TV had no remote control either. The bed itself looked fab but upon sitting/lying down on it, you sunk in and it was very uncomfortable for two people. It is definitely in need of being replaced. I braved the shower which looked grim. I shouldn't have bothered. The water took ages to warm up and when it did, it was still only luke warm. The windows were both not great and the one wasnt able to be opened as was broken. The general decor was in need of being updated throughout the whole hotel although you can look past this. The breakfast was lovely. There was a good choice of cereals and a fry up. The staff at breakfast time were very helpful. Unfortunately, I wouldn't stay here again which is a shame as the parking was free, security was good to get into and out the building and the location was perfect.

Oh dear don't stay here if you have standards.

were to start, shown three rooms as first was bad 12 then 17&19 stayed in 17 they are all half rooms, that tells you something, hotel is very very tired, in fact it needs gutting and rebuilding, booked a sea view did not expect to have the sea in the room, window leaked carpet was wet, most worrying the smoke alarm was hanging from the ceiling! Walls grubby, ceiling hanging down, paper peeling, bathroom was from the 60s and just full of peeling silicone & paper, furniture is hand painted and 50 year old, tv was unwatchable constant glitching , one ok thing bedding was clean. dining room is just awful what's with the fish tank?, arrived Thursday, asked about the bar/drinks to be told only open at weekends, breakfast was acceptable and the receptionist was really pleasant but he is on a hiding to nothing! i stayed one night of three leaving next day, did not even as for a refund as they clearly need the money more than me! do yourself a favour and stay next door (new brooklyn) its like a 5 star hotel compared with coastal bay as that's were i went. phots att substantiate what i have said.

Should be closed down.

We thought this place was shut down. Maybe it had been. No sign. No lights on (the light in the photo is the light I left on). All black and in darkness. Went to the door and a man unlocked it. No sign of any computers in reception etc. or signage. Not even a sheet of A4 in the window Bar closed and grill over the bar. Breakfast area desolate. Carpet filthy. Bedroom small and damaged furniture. Parking situation a little unusual. No spaces either. First hotel I’ve ever declined to stay at. Didn’t even bring the family in (I had gone to do a recce as the place looked closed) And in subsequent messages, I was called a liar by the man who let us in - a bit like another reviewer. When we booked, the tripadvisor link took us to a different hotel. Hopefully that has changed now.

Not clean at all Carpets badly stained, wallpaper hanging off walls. Barely any toilet roll. Room very cold as holes in walls covered with cardboard or wood. Worst sleep I’ve ever had the bed was extremely uncomfortable could feel every spring. Supposed to be a double bed more like a single bed. Car parking awful cars blocking everyone in. Owner just telling you to dump your car. Would not recommend this hotel at all. May be ok for stag nights if on a budget.

Absolutely Discusting.

Everything was discusting. I was given a false advertisement. I had 2 young children with me and the room was dirty and smelly. I didn't even want to let my children walk around the place it was that bad. the beds and furniture are all falling apart. The wall where the window was had wallpaper all coming off with mould growing underneath and the ceiling looked like it was going to collapse, it is a health Hazard for adults never mind young children, disgusting. No bar access as advertised and it's like it was only us in the building as no sound of any movement of other guests. definately would not advice a stay there. I have seen some bad places, but this was just vile. we didn't even have access to a working ceiling light and was given a lamp as an alternative. Plus the fact I was charged 75 pound for this horrendous mess. Vile it really is.

There was nothing to like. The place was so run down even the bugs were leaving. Their alcohol licence had been withdrawn, the name on the hotel had been removed, there were no lights on, couldn't get access in to the hotel, tried from 2.30 on Saturday afternoon until 5.30 then gave up and had to go and find other accommodation as the granddaughter was getting more and more upset

Shower erm yeah just vile, wouldn’t wash my dog in it. Ceiling about to collapse. No main light just a table lamp. Apart from that was a lovely hotel. At least was free parking on site.
