Grand nostalgic hotel, luxurious bedrooms, lounges, dining facilities. Staff ever friendly and helpful. Slightly awkward to use the pool if disabled, leaves you no proper shower/changing facilities if cannot walk up spiral staircase, other than this fantastic convenient location for the tram, promenade/pier and nearby shops.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. Went away for a few days away as an early valentine's getaway. Despite the colder temperature, we both had a great time. The hotel was very clean, the staff were friendly and the location to the beach was minutes away. The facilities in the hotel were a bonus. I loved the use of the pool at the end of the day
