My friend and I booked the Thistle, which overlooks the seafront and is very close to the pier as she liked the look of the foyer, which is rather impressive inside. The hotel does not tell you that...

We stayed at the thistle over the Easter Holiday, and have to say the hotel was better than expected. After reading so many poor reviews I was worried! We had an atriumn view room, it was clean...

We stayed in a standard room which, although clean, was in bad need of updating - the wallpaper was peeling, and the bathroom was very dated. There is a wellness centre on the basement floor which is...

I give this place 3.5/5. We went yesterday as part of a Tesco promotion so would have been £140 which I would have been very annoyed about. I think this place is worth about half that. Had a...
