Super friendly hotel

Amazing stay ,beautiful hotel very friendly, breakfast excellent and room very comfortable, great shower for myself and also grandson loves a bath, use of thd pool was great added bonus as we love swimming, only criticism was the set 4 course evening meal , i was on my own with grandson age 5 and we just wanted a snack ( maybe bowl of chips ) but was told they didn't do that so we had to go out and when we came back i asked for a hot chocolate from the free machine but was told it was only for after meal drinks, wouldn't stop us going again though

Grand nostalgic hotel, luxurious bedrooms, lounges, dining facilities. Staff ever friendly and helpful. Slightly awkward to use the pool if disabled, leaves you no proper shower/changing facilities if cannot walk up spiral staircase, other than this fantastic convenient location for the tram, promenade/pier and nearby shops.
