10/10 Excellent

Great value for money nice friendly environment Good helpful team Superb location
Angela, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Fairly good if you want a well priced decent bed for the night, perfect we stayed whilst playing golf in the area. Pretty good to be fair
ross, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Jacqueline, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Quaint hotel with friendly staff who went out of their way to make you welcome. Food reasonably priced and good value.
barbara, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Are you in the mood for a depressing seaside hotel with black mold, electrical wires draped over furniture, filthy towels and public hair in the sink? Well then - do I have the place for you! Did I mention the front desk staff is oblivious to your suggestions to clean the room and make it habitable? If all of the above is not what you are looking for then just search for hotels with more than one star.
Jeff, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Toilet did not flush, this was reported but no the problem was not remedied. Other guest were noisy , exacerbated by banging from the fire door whenever anyone moved along the corridor. Rooms were not very clean.
Michael, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

We found the hotel quite shabby . The hotel has potential, but there is a lack of welcoming hospitality. Room was ok, but needed dusting. Parking on the road extremely hard to find a place close by
Terry, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Hotel is in need of repair, room so ok beds were comfy our biggest issue was no hot water to have a shower in the morning looking at previous reviews this has been an issue for a while.
Richard, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

We had read that the hotel was being refurbished by new owners, but felt that our room, whilst clean, was unfinished. There was no toilet roll holder; the en-suite door frame had been primed but not painted; areas around the window needed decorating; a strip of new coving was not properly fixed to the ceiling and there was a strange plastic tube with a tissue stuffed in the end running across the top of the window. Personally we also disliked the laminate flooring and the fact that the window (ground floor, street facing) had only vertical blinds and no curtains. All that being said, this room was at least 40% cheaper than anything else in the area for the one night that we wanted and clearly some work had been done as the en-suite looked new with quality tiling, and the ceiling looked new.

2/10 Terrible

Avoid this hotel!!

Horrible hotel, me and my family felt so disgusted to stay there everything felt so dirty and it was so smelly everywhere we literally left to go back home at like 10pm to drive 4 hours home as we just couldn’t stay there. Absolutely horrible
Constantin, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great hotel restaurant was Indian plus some local food. Was amazing meal highly recommend hotel but especially Indian food fantastic.
Mike, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Very poor customer service, venue very tired and disjointed. No tv working in room and management not interested in this problem. No goodbye on check out, again awful customer service
Gill, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Unfortunately we were told the chef was on holiday so we couldn’t eat at the Schooner. It would have been nice to know that information so we could make alternative arrangement and not be disappointed when we got there and be inconvenienced by having to go back out. Also there was no hot water and none of us particularly wanted a cold shower
Marjorie, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

hotel was good but several areas need a revamp!
Steve, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

DO NOT BOOK THIS PLACE

DO NOT BOOK!!! Half finished, dirty, no hot water (constant theme not one off check other reviews), no one contactable. No one on ‘reception’ and no one ever answers phone. Also offers breakfast - good luck getting that!!! To offer breakfast there has to be someone there to actually provide it, not that I’d want it given no hot water and therefor handwashing or shower facilities in the building.
christopher, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Very cool, historic hotel, but very old, except the bathrooms are awesome.
Harry, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Plain but comfortable room. Bar and restaurant areas exceptoinally and clean and well organised and a credit to the staff; who were welcoming, friendly and always willing to go the extra mile. Food was beyond expectation; this is great place to eat; and takeaways seem to be very popular.
Trevor, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

Schooner Hotel

It was extremely clean ,room well equipped, but avoid dining there. The meal was inedible and overpriced. It felt like Fawlty Towers!

Amparo, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Highly recommended for short or long stays

Had a great stay here . All my needs were catered for . Room was clean and well laid out . Dinner was tasty. The room was quiet at night and I slept very well. All topped up with a full English breakfast before heading on my way
David, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Too many lies about hotel

It was clean but the whole hotel is tired. There is no restaurant even thou you advertise on hotels.com. There is no breakfast either had to use an alternative hotel and pay. I wouldnt stay again but it was ok for 1 night.
Matthew, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Terrible

Avoid- hotel very run down and dirty. Very expensive for sub standard accommodation. Unsafe plugs/ poor decoration/ poor level of cleanliness/ damp. Several areas of the hotel need cleaning bunch as stairs / dining room / bar area. On arrival room smelt unclean (of wet dogs) asked to move rooms but was told hotel was full despite this not seeming to be the case. Met with other guests on stairs who informed me that there was no hot water and they had reported. On arrival checked hot water and indeed was cold, went to reception to report and member of staff seemed surprised. No hot water for the entire Friday evening. Tea and coffee equipment dirty. Internal lock on bedroom door not working - this is a concern for females travelling alone.
Kate, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Bed linen inadequate. Cold room. In need of refurbishing. Not a pleasant stay
