The staff were very helpful and friendly.

My reservation was made on-line and when we arrived the process hadn't got through to the hotel which ment they had to find us a room that day,happily it worked out fine.

Overall: Perfect location for views and access to the beach was easy, close enough to walk into the town.  (108906578)

Not very many good points! In fact apart from the outstanding sea view in was pretty awful. Booking information automatically presumed I was Mr H!. Parking was an extra £20. Room was not as web site, noisy, poor quality - the bed was impossible, it was so hard and in poor condition. Room was very small. No where to put a suitcase.

I could go on and on but very dissapointing. Worst moment was when reception staff ate dinner behind the counter, all the food smells prevaded the reception and they answered the phone and enquires with a mouthful of food. Very poor quality, poor value for money. Plumbing was awful, shower was ineffective. Breakfast was very mediocre, no fresh bread or fresh fruit. A toast queue, greasy food, no fresh fruit, Restaurant manager off hand, when I asked for a table with a sea view. Evening menu very restricted. TV only 3 channels worked. Clean enough but I felt I was staying in sub standard room. Patio Garden over grown and full of ash trays. Never again.

Overall: Best avoided, Premier Travel Inns are much better, a more consistent standard.  (107871925)

Why do we publish ratings from Active Hotels?

Our rating system is designed to give you the confidence to find and book the hotel that best suits your needs. We've worked hard to create a fair and impartial process to collect our ratings so you can always be assured of a great hotel experience.

How do I add a rating?

Unlike other sites that offer ratings, our rating process is by invitation only. This ensures that 100% of the ratings you see on our site come from guests that have booked online with us and stayed at the hotel in question.

All our ratings are created by guests who have booked through Active Hotels (or its sister sites) and completed their stay over the last year. We don't edit, alter or adjust the ratings so you can be sure of unbiased opinions.

How do you manage to collect so many ratings?

48 hours after departure from your accommodation booked through Active Hotels or any of our sister sites, you may be invited to complete a guest review questionnaire. This means that, for most hotels, we're able to post more than 1 guest rating every single week. We currently display over 70,000 ratings and we add hundreds of scores from real guests every day.
