    Location. Wonderful view. Very expensive. Nothing special about the room, other than the view. No bottled water, no tissues cheap biscuits....just nothing special for the cost

    Nice hotel the occasion we attended was a great buffet. The breakfast was superb. The booking wasn't put through correctly surname and first names were reversed and the room wasn't made as a twin. But it was changed. Tea making facilities were hidden in a drawer which I'm not used to. The guy on reception when I checked in put the cost through to the card machine my payment went through with him watching then he asked to see my card to check the number matched the receipt printed by the the card machine. Never been asked before and didn't like the insinuation that I may be trying to defraud with the payment.

    Check in was so easy and effortless, less than 5 minutes! Perfect. A parking Permit for the Car for 24 hours was £2.50, again very helpful staff.

    Great location. Modern hotel with lovely rooms and private venue facilities. Great food and wonderful service from all staff. Very clean public spaces and great selection of toiletries in bathrooms. Unusual shower function took some puzzling out. Duvet were too thick/heavy for this time of year. Personally, I found the pillows uncomfortable - 1 on its own was not enough but 2 was too firm. Also, we would have preferred to be able to set the AC to a cooler temperature than was fixed.

    From start to finish, the staff were fabulous. Always froendly and amazing at their job. We didnt require any additional help, but it was obvious The View staff would help in any way. I have no faults woth The View.

    Location is excellent. Room upgrade to a front balcony (booked side view). Comfortable bed slept well. Good food selection for breakfast. I couldn't work out the shower so had to have a bath - probably just me!

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Room very comfortable. Bathroom had good shower. Breakfast did the job without being exceptional. Excellent seafront location. Air-con was great in the very hot weather. Would have liked a fridge in room. Bar area downstairs was quite noisy. A quiet lounge area, not on ground floor, would have been good.

    I liked that the sea was always within view from the window and balcony. My room was comfortable . I liked the retractable washing line over the bath. And the reading lamps either side of the bed. The furniture being wood was in need of re-varnishing . The iron board cover needed a new one as had old burn marks and the iron kept sticking to the clothes not ironing smoothly

    Self service No obvious gluten free options.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Food was quite good but there were not very many healthy options. Space for guests in the dining room at breakfast was quite limited and it became overly crowded at times. In most respects the room lived up to its billing as a Superior room. However we were a little disappointed to find no bottled water on offer, no slippers, no bath robes, no tissues, no writing paper or pen, no fridge, no balcony table, no cushions for the chairs.
