Lovely hotel by the sea
Lovely old skool hotel based right on the seafront. Great location to walk into Hythe. Breakfast buffet was great with lots of choice. Don’t go here just for the spa as it’s a family hotel, so understandably there were a lot of children in the pool, therefore quite loud. Was great to have the facilities available and we used them, but not a traditional relaxing spa experience. Our room with a view was gorgeous and we had a lovely time overall.

Good but .....
We enjoyed our 2 night stay and the staff were friendly and helpful.
We ate in the restaurant on our second night. The food was quite good but the service was shambolic. We apparently became invisible for stretches of time.
I realise there are problems with such an open space, but the cleaning up and relaying of tables for the next day were off putting while we ate.
