Car park problems

This hotel is nicely placed on the seafront, the rooms are excellent and the on-suit bathroom was very well appointed with nice clean crisp white towels. The hotel described free parking which it is just at the back of the hotel, unfortunately it is also a public car park so spaces are limited on warm sunny days, so we hade to drive and park elsewhere, it would have been better if the description had stated this as it was a major factor in choosing this hotel.
Graham, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property was clean fresh and well maintained and had everything you needed. Staff were informative and very helpful and attentive. Great hotel.
Matthew, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel room was lovely but £187 for one night (booked last minute and arriving at 5pm) and not incl breakfast was a bit much. It was just me and my partner and dinner finished earlier than 7pm, last orders at the bar were 8.30pm… Breakfast finished at 9.30am and there was a £14.95pp charge for it. Bit steep onto of the room rate.
