United KingdomWelcomed by staff, lovely room. Dinner in the Mirabelle tasted amazing. Great breakfast in the morning. The hotel is a beautiful building lovely and spacious and there are good Covid practices in place. Felt clean & safe. Great stay
United KingdomIt’s a lovely building with grandly decorated interior. I had room service twice and it was delicious and very promptly brought up both times. I was very comfortable in my room. The view from my side sea view room was still excellent. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. I enjoyed my stay and the location was very convenient for a course I was attending in a venue 5 minutes walk along the seafront.
United KingdomThe hotel felt restful and calm which is just what we needed. Flexible mealtimes meant we could use the pool every day at different times.
United KingdomStaff excellent Food superb Outdoor pool Comfy beds
United KingdomGood size junior suite. Kept well maintained and cleaned despite COVID. Breakfast is excellent. Room Service excellent. Indoor pool cleanest I’ve seen.( you must book slots, do so before arriving) Outdoor pool still open. Staff very friendly and helpful. Can’t do enough.
United KingdomIt’s a shame that the buffet breakfast has been discontinued- hopefully this is just in the short term. It really was a spectacular spread and the table service is slightly inaccurate in what is bought and lacks the choice that used to be offered.
