Lovely Break at the Abbey Sands Hotel

The room was clean and tidy and the housekeepers made the room up each day. The breakfast in the restaurant was lovely and pool and hot tub were clean and well maintained. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. We will definitely stay here again.

Needs some work

Hotel is looking a bit tired. Understand it's recently been taken over so hope it gets a facelift. Staff were excellent and breakfast was very good. Disappointed to find on arrival that there was no bar or option for an evening meal which is partly why I booked. Good for a short break as near the beach. Parking was £10 a day but did guarantee a space in your name. Rooms did have a damp smell and looked in need for a deep clean. Shower was old fashioned mixer from bath taps which meant it was either boiling hot or freezing. Bed was comfy but the room was very warm despite having all radiators off and windows open as far as possible.

Jayant, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had two rooms for a family mini break. The rooms were really spacious and comfortable and spotlessly clean. The hotel is ideally situated for easy access to the beachfront, the pier also the town centre. The staff were all really helpful and friendly and we had the best time. We would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend
Elaine, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

The hotel had just been open a few days after being closed for 8 months. The building is shabby & our room was worse. There were stains on the carpet & upholstery. The bathroom was nice as it looked as if it had been upgraded recently. There was no ac & we could only open the window a few inches. We had a very small fan, inadequate. The sun shone on our window most of the day. It was hot!
