The temperature in the room was very warm. Our room faced a busy loud street. Next time I would find a room facing the water. Bathroom is beautiful and bed was very comfortable.

The room was clean and well presented. The staff were friendly and helpful. The cleaners did an excellent job making the room each day. The tea and coffee station was refilled every day. The only con would be the discomfort of the mattress, we could feel springs pressing into us and we found it uncomfortable. Other than this we were extremely impressed and would highly recommend the hotel and restaurant. We would stay again

An incredible room, not only clean and comfortable but for the price it felt very luxurious. Fantastic location with the bridge views, and much quieter than anywhere in the city. Truly made us wish we had time to stay a few more nights!

Everything here was great. The only slightly negative thing was that the room was BLAZING HOT when we arrived. The curtains were fully drawn and midday-afternoon sun had heated the room to sauna temps. Only one of the three windows opened about five inches so it took until morning for it to become a bearable temperature. Otherwise, everything was clean… updated, well maintained, and fresh. They had even made up the sofa bed for our son. We were able to check in about an hour early after 15+ hours of travel which was unexpected. Thanks to the staff at Orocco Pier for making our stay enjoyable.

Not happy!

After paying £150 for a room with a sea view. On arrival we were told we were giving a room with a balcony. We were happy to hear this but once we entered the room it was so so small and very claustrophobic! The bed was extremely small. My partner is 8 months pregnant, there was barely any room to swing a cat so I went to reception and ask if we could move room, we have already checked online and we knew there was rooms empty. To this we were told we would have to pay £35 extra to upgrade to a bigger room, we had no option other than to do it because it was no possible to stay in the room we had been provided with. I think the customer service was really poor in this case, they could have done better to help accommodate a heavily pregnant lady. Word of warning if booking, ask not to be given the room with the balcony. Even when we did move the bed was very uncomfortable, the mattress was far too soft and could feel springs and some sort of board down the middle. I wouldn’t say here again.
