Great location
The location of the hotel was perfect for walking to the Valley of the Rocks and the coastal path. We had a room only but that suited us and the service was friendly and helpful.

Good position but very basic.
Very surprised how basic it was. A real struggle to get luggage from car park (paid extra) into hotel. No back door, had to walk down main road dodging traffic. Rooms not tidied or cleaned during stay, bins not emptied. Nice sea view from room though and a very good position for walking. Just very basic.

Business accommodation sing room April 5th 2025
Car parking, limited and no space for me! Restricted parking close by. On booking in there was no bar facilities or dining! They do give you clise by resteraunts list. Bed comfortable, basic facilities in the room, good working shower and toilet, clean but in need of decorating and carpets in my single room.

Staff were friendly & helpful, but the room was horrible. Carpet had numerous stains or marks, the bed should have been thrown out as one side sloped away to the edge & it was difficult to stay in the bed. Restaurant was not operating, perhaps due to time of year? Most hotels we have stayed in do offer a breakfast of some sort, nothing at all here. Good location in centre of town.

Terrible
Room dirty, bathroom dirty. Bed lining looked like it had been slept in. Someone contact lens still on the sideboard. We complained. They cleaned room , when we went back in the fumes of beach was so strong burning our eyes. We left the hotel any stayed somewhere else. Staff room master keys were left on the bed .

Good location, pleasant stay
Just a one night stay at the weekend. We arrived later than planned but had a parking space reserved (pre booked) which was good. There are only a few spaces on site so pre-booking is essential, otherwise there's a public car park a short walk away.
The receptionist was very helpful and given our late arrival, advised that if we were looking for somewhere to eat to go soon because the local restaurants would be closing very soon.
The hotel is an old building that has obviously been adapted over the years to comply with changing regulations and expectations. Hence we found it a maze of corridors and fire doors, but well signposted.
Our room was spacious and with a sea view. It was comfortable but quite basic. The shower was only mildly warm but was ok for a one night stay.
The location of the hotel was good, with various attractions within a short walk, including the cliff railway if you don't fancy the steep walk down to the harbour area.

Fantastic location.
Very faded grandeur with fairly basic accommodation but this is reflected in the price so is good value for the price.

The hotel fails to advertise the fact that this hotel is run in line with Islamic tenets so no alcohol or pork allowed or available on the premises. I had to seek out dining and breakfast elsewhere.
This once glorious building needs a refurb.
Very helpful young lady at reception.
