Reviews and Ratings
The hotel boasts stunning sea views and a great location on the promenade, but the unsecured back alley is a concern. The service was impeccable, although the lack of dining options at 9.40am was noted.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is fantastic, right on the seafront with stunning sea views, and it's just a stone's throw away from the beach. The service was top-notch, and the classic fried fish served at 9.40 am was a delicious treat. However, the low ceiling in the hall was a bit of a downside, but it didn't detract much from the overall experience.
The hotel is ideally located on the promenade offering sea views and quick access to everything. Rooms are comfortable, but the low ceilings in the halls may be a drawback. The service is attentive, although there are occasional hiccups. The dining experience is delightful with included smoked salmon bagels for breakfast. The facilities are well-maintained, especially the pool area.
