“5 Night stay in June 2019”

We left Wiltshire at 5.30 to catch the 8.15 ferry from Portsmouth. Pleasant 5 hour crossing and leisurely drive down. We planned on having an evening meal amd a relaxed drink on the balcony. What we were not told in advance is that the restaurant only opens Thurs-Saturday and the bar closes at 9.00 and all doors are locked. Entry via key. We walked along the prom to the nearest bar and had a very enjoyable meal Al Fresco and were provided with blankets to keep us warm. We chose the superior room with balcony but this is not superior. The fooor area is about 3m x 3m and has a king size bed so hardly room for 2 people to move around. I small chair and a big log. The view is great and a lovely balcony but the 2 nylon deckchairs were unuseable due to pigeon droppings However, I must agree with other comments. Very friendly staff, Immaculate in all areas and housekeeping perfect Book your parking in advance as only 4 spaces @9 euro per night. Street parking limited

“A lot more negatives than positives for the price.”

The original stone building might be different but the rooms we were in was in a pre-fab block in the car park. You can hear deliveries coming and going at 11pm and 6pm every day. If you keep the window closed for quietness, it's roasting inside. The beds are also too short and i'm only 187cm. If y… more

The original stone building might be different but the rooms we were in was in a pre-fab block in the car park. You can hear deliveries coming and going at 11pm and 6pm every day. If you keep the window closed for quietness, it's roasting inside. The beds are also too short and i'm only 187cm. If you want to park your car it's 15 euros per day (it's free on street parking so dont bother), if you want to hire bikes its 10 euros per day (they are absolutely terrible), if you want to iron your clothes (they dont have an iron)... The positives are that the location is great, it's right on the beach and has a lovely terrace you can sit in! However considering the price 130 euros a night minimum, it's not worth it. Go elsewhere

“Impressive accommodation, but disappointing restaurant”

The hotel was tastefully decorated with a bright, modern nautical/industrial theme and the room was very clean and adequately appointed. Unusually, the room had a separate toilet and shower room. With the hotel being directly on the sea front, we were fortunate to have a room with a sea view and it was nice to be able to open the full height windows and listen to the waves. The old town was visible from the small balcony and could be reached with a 40-minute walk along the sea front. We found the staff to be polite and helpful. The hotel restaurant appeared to be popular, but there were few other options nearby. We ate in the restaurant on only one evening as, unfortunately, the food shared the distinction of being both the worst and most expensive meal of our holiday. Parking is available for guests, but there are only three spaces, plus one disabled space for a total of 22 rooms. Having arrived after a long drive across France, we then had to drive around the local streets for half an hour trying to find a parking space. The nearest was 700m from the hotel, which meant a tiring walk with suitcases on a very hot day. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and, for a 3-star hotel, the accommodation is impressive, but this hotel may not be suitable for those with a car.
