10/10 Exceptional

We had a good stay! (4 nights)

On the whole defo 5*! Great location and views. Very friendly staff. Has Indoor swimming pool and we had Breakfast included. Has a bar / lounge area and a welcome feel. Will mention rooms and hotel are a bit dated and onsite parking but limited. But I don’t think they pretend to be a modern hotel.

Lovely holiday!

Absolutely wonderful stay. Very clean room, just needed to request extra pillows, which were provided and made sleeping much easier. Quiet room, wonderful sounds of seagulls in the morning. A lovely view of the sea through one window! So pleasant, and a great location!

The hotel is in poor condition. The photos on the website are very misleading. The room had poor decor. Communal areas need updating and cleaning. However, staff were friendly and helpful.

The Ocean View's strongest features is its location, high above the beach but close to the lift. The downside is that it primarily caters to tour groups, leaving the solo traveler a bit confused at times.

Our experience

On arrival to the hotel it was a pretty foyer we were dealt with quickly but not personally ie how are you today how far have you come,our bedroom was dated but the veiws were amazing,we were half board food was above average and presentation was good service was good but no one really in charge of a young team so no consistency we were also segregated from the other guests which was very noticeable it was very apparent the the hotel has been take oven recently and there were different owns to parts of the business with in the hotel which didn't gel together for a full experience of been on holiday and being look after but they were very conscientious in there areas there was alot of work going on but it didn't interfere with us using all amenities and l believe it will be lovely when it is finished , on day of check out l request my breakfast early 8.am to enable me to make my travel home ,bus ferry,train but the reception could grant this and didn't seem to want to then on check out it was nonexistent just told to leave key on the desk ,so on whole there was so great thing but also something to think about l wish you great success

2/10 Poor

After spending one night at this hotel, I ended up with bright red itchy spots all over my body. I don’t know if it was bed bugs, but they definitely ate not mosquito bites. The room is incredibly outdated. The room door lock has paint chipping and peeling. There was a step into the bathroom, which looked quite bizarre. The bathroom floor was wallpapered and the wallpaper was starting to bubble up and peel off, it was also very creaky and made sounds with every movement. Parking was free but it was a nightmare. It took me at least 15 minutes to get out of my parking space. It was back and forth making tiny micro-adjustments until I was able to get out. The only perk to the hotel is the location, but there are plenty of other hotels located on the same road/a couple roads down.

4/10 Fair

Very disappointed, I feel the issue is with Expedia and the way the room is sold, I booked a twin room that sleeps 3, the picture of this room "Standard Twin room" stated it slept 3 people and showed a sea view, when my wife and I arrived at the hotel to check in we were given room 126A which was an awful room, 2 single beds, definitely could not sleep 3 and was nothing more than a box room. nowhere near what the photo of the room portrayed. The picture supplied is of the room we upgraded to at an extra cost to me, we were told it was a triple view room, but wasn't made up, so I had to ask for new towels, mugs and bed linen, as the old bed linen from the previous occupants was still on the beds. The reason for wanting a twin room that slept 3 people, was for my wife who is recovering from major surgery.

I didn’t have a good experience. I was refused dinner by the lady at reception, who told me I was too late—even though her colleague had informed me at check-in that I could decide on dinner by 6 PM. I politely asked her to check with the restaurant to see if it was still possible to get any food, but she refused to do so. She also told me that breakfast was not available before 8 AM. However, when I came in the morning, another receptionist kindly helped me arrange breakfast before 8 AM with an organized group.

2/10 Poor

Definitely not deserving of 3 stars!!!

I will start with the best thing I can say. I was allowed to check in early at 9am after explaining that i was feeling unwell and for that I gave service 2 stars. My room was very disappointing. It did not match photographs online. The carpet was dirty and very worn, the paint on all the furniture was chipped and they didn't bother to put on a valance sheet on the singe bed; the base box was visable. The beds and pillows were very uncomfortable. I left with a severe back and neck pain. The room was cleaned before I arrived and housekeeping attended after the first night. However, they did not attend after the second night, the only thing that was cleaned was the bin. The balcony was dirty on my arrival and I had to clean the chairs myself to sit. The railing of the balcony was unsecured and thwre were workmen next to my windows, so I did not feel comfortable opening the drapes all the way during the day. Breakfast was a stressful process, the wait to be seated and served was very long, food arrived cold. Some of the cups on yhe table were not clean and I could not drink tea or coffee at all on the first day. I expalined to the staff on the first day that I was not comfortable and would like a room change and was ignored. Overall the hotel seems to be in a state of disrepair. I am very disheartened I try to avoid chain hotels when I can and support local but this will make me rethink that.

Hotel was in a good location. I booked six single rooms for a cycling weekend, all the rooms were comfy, the hotel bar was friendly, and the cooked breakfast for next day was excellent. I’d recommend the hotel.

Friendly, professional staff team. Lovely big room with a balcony and view out to sea. Beds comfortable with clean fresh white linen. Superb shower. Breakfast service fast and food good . Overall a great place to stay. Room feels a little dated but does not effect the stay. Good indoor swimming pool For our stay there was a very annoying flashing street light immediately outside, this was no fault of the hotel as councils responsibility.

Lovely spot with sea view, rooms need updating, very tired. Bar not open when we were there and no entertainment offered. Nice swimming pool but such a long trek to it with lots of stairs not suitable for everyone. Otherwise as advertised.

It was a great stay, really enoyed the Hotel's freindly and professional staff. My stay was made super special by the warm welcome and greeting by FOH, receptionist Sara M. She was the icing on the cake for me. Thanks Kevin M.
