Lovely hotel

Food was excellent, entertainment was excellent. The only problem was that the extractor fans for the kitchen were just below our bedroom window, room 330 the noise was terrible and we couldn't close the window as it was too hot so it made the room uncomfortable during the day.

We always try to stay at this hotel. The staff are amazing as is the food and the entertainment. The free parking and it being close to public transport is an added bonus too.

8/10 Very good

Same high standard overall as always!

Stayed in a twin room with sea view and very comfortble beds, away from the lift where we had asked for it to be when we booked. The food was, very very good. Plenty of choice and great quality. The staff were very friendly and helpful throughout. The on site cafe was a let down. the food was poor and very expensive. The entertainment was excellent, especially on the Saturday night. We have seen the dancers, called "The Sensation Dancers" numerous times and have never been impressed before - until this visit. Their dance routines were very good, the dancers were excellent and the costums they wore were much better than we have seen on previous vists. All in all, a vast improvement! The singers were also excellent and the show was very, very enjoyable - the best we have seen since we started staying at Choice Hotels. Another noteworthy point is that the drink prices were very good value and not silly hotel prices as you pay in many other hotels. One let down about the concert room was THE CHAIRS. Many of us suffered with a sore bottom after sitting on them for a while - and I MEAN SORE!! Overall, very good and we WILL be back.
