The rooms were musty when we checked in and could do with re-furbishing. Disappointing, since this used to be one of my favorite hotels. The service levels have also dropped. The staff claimed there was no ice for drinks one of the evenings and the ice magically appeared after taking up the issue with the manager. The quality of food... More

Having stayed at the two heritage hotels in the past we thought we would try a seaview hotel advertised as "with swimming pool". The location was honest, and we had two rooms which looked directly over the seafront. But the quality of the rooms was tired, and the bathrooms were shabby. The swimming pool is no more than a small... More

Went there for a meal - loved the property and the location - in the core of the city and right across the beach - the weekend crowd was out on the road and had a festive feel ... The outdoor dining area was nice and the meal served was good - staff very courteous and helpful !
