“Stepping into this Victorian building, one is greeted with a sense of history complemented by sea views; the hotel's location across from the South Pier offers both charm and convenience, with easy access to local transport. Though some may find the condition a bit worn, the staff's exceptional service and willingness to assist with event planning is a distinct advantage, adding a personal touch to any stay, in my opinion. A solid choice for those who value attentive service and a beachfront location.”
