The staff attention was outstanding. The hotel is outdated. It needs a refurbishment. The bedroom carpets are mouldy as are the other carpets. The cleaners do a good a very good job, however this does not compensate for the circumstances of the outdated rooms. The public areas are generally well kept.

The room was large and clean with a very large bed.Unfortunately the property is looking tired. The plumbing in the bathroom was very noisy overnight. We have stayed in the Charlton for many years as we have a timeshare in the building, but the hotel could do with an update. The steam room wasn't working, nor was the spa

The hotel and grounds are in need of complete refurbishment from replacing draughty secondary double glazing to updating the whole bathroom. The shower is small and water pressure poor. The Seaview rooms are large but have poor furniture. The food in the restaurant is good however there was a lack of attention to guests from some of the staff
