Open air theatre trip

We had a lovely stay at the Crescent hotel. It's a traditional seaside hotel, a lovely big building in a brilliant location. The breakfast was very good with lots of options. Friendly helpful staff and a lovely outside bar where we enjoyed a night cap after returning from the open air theatre. The music was a little loud in the outside bar, could maybe be a little bit quieter for conversation but not a big issue.

Amazing staff, friendly and attentive. Beautiful hotel and clean , modern rooms. Comfortable bed. Nice bathroom. Only thing is water pressure was a bit low while in the shower. Breakfast had plenty of options from hot to cold. Lots of drinks available. Tasty food. Loved that we were able to leave our bags and come collect them later.

Lovely stay at this hotel. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful and the breakfast is excellent. The rooms don't have air-con and ours didn't have opening windows, so a little stuffy, but a fan is provided. The hotel is ideally located for the town and the beach, and there are plenty of bars & restaurants within walking distance. Parking is available for £6 per night, but it is on the street (very easy & close to the hotel though). Would stay again.

Lovely Hotel

Lovely hotel with good old fashioned service. Large, comfortable room, with a super king sized bed. Lovely staff who looked after us. The decor was a little tired, but overall good and would come back and recommend. Great location, very handy for the train station, theatre and sea front.

Nice, friendly hotel in good location

We stayed at The Central because of its convenient location for the Stephen Joseph Theatre. We were lucky to find parking directly in front of the hotel and purchased a discounted parking permit from the hotel. There are plenty of parking garages nearby as well. The lady on reception was friendly and helpful. The room on the third floor was a decent size with all the basics including an ironing board and iron. It looked out on a main road with several bars but the noise, even on a Friday night, was minimal. The bed was comfortable and breakfast was very good. A very nice stay and we would definitely return, but perhaps would ask for a room overlooking The Crescent.

Fantastic hotel and well run.

Staff were really helpful and always went the extra mile. Hotel is great and only a few minor gripes which would make my rating a 9 rather than 10. Bathroom door snagged on the floor and breakfast room needs soft furnishings as very noisy. On the whole, would and will revisit.
