The room was clean and the bed comfortable. The shower was great and the bath, well it was a bath! Breakfast was nice and good quality and the staff were very welcoming and helpful. Location was right next to The Lanes and a short walk practically everywhere from the i360 to the Pier. Even the marina is only about a 30-40 mins walk away.

room not cleaned, no staff no notice

The room looked a bit tired and electrical plugs were inconveniently placed. It was hard to find a good plug for the kettle and hair dryer. The view from the room was not great.

The room was cosy and very clean. Amenities were great - including good quality teas, coffees and toiletries. Check-in was a bit delayed but staff made sure we were comfortable. The hotel has a lovely bar. Staff were very helpful and polite. Location is great!

The memory foam mattress. It was a bit worn

The location was perfect. Close to the sea and all the shops and cafes. We loved the bathrooms and having a bath tub in the room. The room has everything you need.

The Reception staff when I initially tried to check in I felt were under pressure and we’re not very caring about my luggage just being left lying which I wasn’t happy about it should put the secure location anyway because I walked in and taken my whole which was Louis Vuitton so obviously attract sorts of people to want to steal it. I have stayed in central hotel Dave all over the country and that’s the first time that’s happened. I felt that the Stafford under pressure and I took blame over the management leaving one staff member and reception and a queue of people very unprofessional, especially this is a tremendous problem for anybody.

Great location and lovely architecture and style

Lack of parking and the price of any parking within a decent distance. The room was a little smelly and some noise late at night from fellow customers who were drunk and loud. Got a call from the hotel when we were out in the town eating our dinner to ask about the room service we had ordered. We didn’t order room service so this made us worry and in return to the hotel I asked what had happened and the reception couldn’t really explain…..did not put my mind at ease.

Location was fabulous.

The pillows were very soft and so not the most comfortable for me - but I can be quite pillow fussy! Not a problem for us but our room was up 4 flights of stairs, which could be tricky for someone with mobility issues.

The location of the hotel is absolutely perfect, being on the seafront within throwing distance of the beach. The room we stayed in had very effective double glazing which meant we didn't hear any of the noise from partygoers or groups sitting outside bars, which was brilliant. The staff were great, very friendly and accommodating. The facilities in the room were good, with Nespresso machine as well as tea-making. The treats, bed and water/food bowls for our dog as well were really appreciated.

there was a lot of stairs involved in it because there is no lift however that being that is because it’s an old building the other problem I found was when I walked in initially to check in there was only one reception staff for the reception staff phone the police was really busy and there was luggage and bags lying around everywhere I said could I leave my bag? She said it was Louis Vuitton brief she said just leave it there in full view of everybody could’ve walked in and just taken It, so I double back and eventually got a receipt offer but the whole experience of the initial check and just happened. Happy to leave my bag lying for any Tom Dicker Harrie to pick it up. I thought was very very poor so you really need to sort out the reception staff when you walk in on that particular branch.

I’ve stayed in that group many times the hotels are all slightly quirky and unusual buildings so that was good

Was given the choice of ground floor (but noisy) or third floor (but lots of steps which is fine) so opted for quiet room. However, room on top floor was hot even with air con, noisy pigeons and low ceilings. Bathroom was clean but in need of maintenance.

Interesting maze of a building. Lovely bar! Comfy bed, I’m sure some of the other rooms were amazing.

Bathroom tiles were grubby. Very small window in the room and it was dirty.

Lovely decor

Our room was on the third floor and there was no lift.

Quirky and a good location.

While the beds and linen were good quality, one bed has clearly been used a lot more and was sagging and quite uncomfortable. Airconditioning had very little effect on cooling the room (we know the seasons and weather have been changeable lately).

Breakfast was delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful with all interactions and they room upgrade was appreciated. Bathroom was lovely and spacious with good quality products.

Road was noisy outside. Curtains could be more blackout. Room seemed bright in the morning

We had dinner and breakfast included. Both were exceptional. We got a complimentary upgrade to a spacious beautiful room.

For dinner in evening we were placed beside a loud group at the next table, yet rest of tables empty. Didn't understand that. I didn't like the constant loud rattling noise of trolleys being brought out in prep for breakfast while we were eating our dinner. I thought this was tasteless, especially as it was only about 9pm, different if we'd overstayed until after closing time. I didn't know if this was routine or for staff convenience because we were the only people left in the bistro at that time.

Lovely room, large and nicely furnished. Comfortable bed, great bathroom with lovely toiletries. Staff very nice and friendly. Excellent location. Food and drinks very good.

The waiting staff were pressed at dinner time and were rude when we arrived. We had a chat with them and they were fine after that. The rump steak should be called Steak frittes or minute steak!!

Decor, they used l’occitane, the balcony. Staff were great (other than when they were super stressed at dinner) Breakfast was lush

It was a Monday but the restaurant was rubbish. Lots of stuff off. Only One start and one main were gluten free. Some aspects of the room took the edge off what was otherwise an amazing suite, egLoose wires & Crappy glass table.

Nice room

Wish we could of checked in a little earlier but it’s the same time as most hotels anyway so can’t complain

We got a surprise free room upgrade which was really nice as I’d booked for my boyfriends birthday so he was really happy with the room
