Negatives 3 night stay on third floor next to noisy lift. Room noisy and not very modern or clean. Beds uncomfortable due to raised springs in mattress. Positives Friendly and helpful staff. 3 course dinner very good. Breakfast plentiful and hot. Pleasant company and entertainment laid on if needed. Nice TV lounge with lovely sea views.

I booked last minute using late rooms and paid £39.00 for 2 people for Bed and Breakfast. What I got for the money almost deserved 5 stars. A very warm welcome by the reception staff, the hotel looked clean, the rooms although dated were spotlessly clean. We were also given a room with a seaview. Breakfast was fine, a good... More

We were recently treated to a long weekend at the Magestic Hotel as an anniversay present. As we usually do Sun holidays with the family, I was really looking forward to a decent stay in a nice hotel, that I was hoping would be a little swanky. Upon arriving in the newly refurbished lobby and bar room, my anticipation really... More

Thank you sukura-sky for your very lengthy and detailed review. As you normally use the £9.50 holidays from the Sun there is no way we could compete with these prices but we are very competitive in our market. Most of our guests feel we provide value for money but if you are comparing us to the Sun holidays then yes... More

Thank you marilyn020 for posting your review. You can’t fault the price of the parking. At £1.00 for a full day you would be hard pushed to find that anywhere else these days, so I am pleased we can offer it to our guests.
