i booked a hotel for a anniversary which cost me 530£ in which it was a junior suit with spa and pool facilities available. However upon arrival we were informed that the pool is closed for refurbishment. This is very out of order as if I knew this I wouldn’t have booked this hotel for that price

Fabulous Small Luxury Hotel
Amazing gem of a hotel and the most lovely staff. We needed a pair of connecting rooms, and one room for my elderly uncle and aunt with an easy access shower. Both requests were readily met with no fuss, which we really appreciate. I would not hesitate in booking another stay here!

The staff had to remind you it is 5 stars
Check in staff member was not welcoming and said every 5 star hotel insisted on payment upfront making us feel perhaps we had never stayed in one before! The room was probably fit for 5 stars in the 70’s but not today. A tiny tv, broken blinds on windows that needed painting, an old style shower curtain and two single beds pushed together with a very large gap down the middle. Dinner choice and quality also would have been great 40-50 years ago, we were typically English and just carried on but the American on the next table did not stay which was probably the right thing to do. There were a couple of positives, the bar staff were friendly and breakfast staff and food were good. We would not return.

A wonderful stay at the grand with attentive staff who are friendly and approachable especially Tony at the main entrance to the hotel who is a great asset to the team by being very courteous and helpful at all times The executive room was very spacious and had wonderful views looking out to sea from all angles the bed was very comfortable and gave us both a good night's sleep The breakfast was exceptional with a wide choice of fresh fruits pastries smoked salmon and various cold meats with a choice of fresh juices and teas the cooked breakfast was again unfaultable with eggs cooked to your preference with perfection and accompanied by endless tea and coffee all served in silver pots and jugs! We used the swimming pool and steam room and had a wonderful experience spoilt with lovely laundered bathrobes and complimentary slippers will definitely stay again xx

This hotel is not very grand anymore I’m afraid. I was looking forward to staying here but it massively disappointed. The old worn out furniture in the bedrooms, the terrible food and the high price tag is not inline with a 5 star hotel.
