I am glad I decided to stay at this hotel because my first impressions had been rather negative. I was pleasantly surprised by the very clean, single room with lovely sea views. I had a small, flat screen TV, tea/coffee tray and a comfortable bed. I found the shower a bit complicated to work and it would be helpful if... More

From the moment you enter this hotel, you see dirt and decay. A fabulous building, in a wonderful place, with terrific young staff, but with dreadful rooms ( I had to change rooms twice to find one with a working WC and bedside light ) and awful food. Grotty furnishing ( thin curtains, old beds, dirty bathroom tiles, ancient TV... More

I booked a 3 night break before I had read the reviews on Tripadvisor. I then wondered what I had let myself & my husband in for, but decided to go with an open mind! I'm so glad I did because I couldn't fault the hotel at all. Our room (12) was clean & spacious & the large bathroom was... More

Well worth doing, room spacious, beautiful views across Bristol channel across to Wales. Hotel Victorian, old and in areas needs attention but the staff are very friendly and the food... More
