Absolutely brilliant All staff and I mean all staff That we came across were brilliant and went above and beyond everything was excellent food ,staff ., rooms and location would highly recommend and have already booked again Top value too thank you for a lovely stay
Not only is the view wonderful, but the staff are so sweet. We checked out at 11am and our train was at 11pm. We came back to the hotel in a pinch as it was really cold and they let us stay in the bar even though we weren't guests here anymore. The staff were such friendly faces, especially the man running breakfast and the receptionists too. 1000000/10 would stay here again <3 Thank you all!!!
A fantastic location on the Seafront with lovely staff throughout. They go above and beyond to look after blind customers as well as a first class service to all patrons. A free breakfast was provided which was absolutely delicious and a special thanks to Sophie & Everlina for their most kind hospitality. I would thoroughly recommend this establishment to anyone who visits Weston Super Mare.
Our rooms were clean, fresh and very nice. My bed was comfy and the shower lovely and hot with plenty of water (didn't have to run around to get wet, like some places I have been to) The staff were super friendly and helpful. An added bonus is that it is a dog friendly hotel. (I recently lost my dog) so I was very glad to meet lots of friendly dogs and owners
I like this hotel. The staff I encountered were friendly and helpful and, because I like dogs, I enjoyed seeing loads of them everywhere. Breakfast was good quality and plentiful. It’s true that the place is looking a little tired in places but it’s excellent value.
The hotel is in an excellent location. Very clean and fresh throughout the hotel! Everyone we encountered was friendly and approachable. Breakfast was very good for being included in the price and you had different options. My only complaint is the beds in the superior twin room squeaked with every movement, other then that we really enjoyed our stay. Things to note - parking might be a problem specially during busy periods and the parking at the back is very hard to maneuver. You have to pick up a parking pass at reception.
The hotel has a fantastic location across the road from the promenade and seafront. The room was adequate and furnished well However, there are aspects of the decor within the room and the hotel that is tired and requires some tender loving care. Some of the decoration and furniture coverings could be easily renewed or repaired. However, this appears to be overlooked. Staff are excellent delightful and helpful . The hotel manager appears disinterested unfortunately however was polite. The grounds are well kept as is the car park area. Little tweaks and some decoration in high traffic areas could be then changer for this hotel. I would stay here again by dog friendly and extremely accessible for those with poor mobility lifts and ramps to the main entrance as well maintained and clear. Breakfast and evening meals are provided they are well priced well presented and very tasty. Better quality than nearby restaurants and also better priced. We will Visit again and hope that some decoration has taken place and the communal areas have been tidied up . Please replace the worn out stools and torn soft furnishings.
Great Hotel. Price awesome. Breakfast top Dollar. Me. And my Dog had the best weekend. Staff amazing. Ok a little tired in places however great location, Friendly staff and a happy dog makes this my West Country go to.

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
