Room was clean and staff was helpful but our see view room was disappointing the first room was on an incline so ask to switch as I could not sleep with my head facing down and in both rooms the so called sea view was a very small window that was in one corner that you had to stand up and get in front of it to see the sea and the rooms was very small and the window let in very little light and we had to have a light on in the middle of the day ! My sister had a room facing the marina and her room was twice the size and these big beautiful big windows that let in a ton of natural light . In my opinion the sea view room is not worth the extra money!

We were given a room where the floor sloped, window facing the beach leaked causing moisture on the window. The bed mattress was old with no support. The restaurants were very good including the steakhouse which was terrific.

Main reason for choosing this hotel is for spa and gym facilities as I do not like missing gym sessions when I’m away. Hotel location easy to find. The building looks okay, decor is very dated, communal areas are clean apart from sauna area but expected… Gym facilities could be better organised but equipments are excellent. Managed to get amazing workouts which was surprising as hotel usually only have basic stuff but not in this case. Breakfast was adequate and seemed fresh, same each day. Main con for this hotel is the room and the lift. The floor was lopsided and made me and my partner feel giddy every time we walk around the bed, and the lift my gosh was very very slow and tiny. Sign says 8people, well like a sardine with 4. Massive pros, staff are lovely and always smiling and very accommodating and helpful. Gym although not very clean and disorganised we have had amazing sessions due to excellent equipments. Will I recommend and come back again? —absolutely!!! Mainly for staff, gym and spa. Enjoyed our stay for these reasons.

Got given a sea view room as it was a special occasion, I wish I got the name of the front desk gentleman, he was working day shift on the 12/13th. He was so lovely and so kind.
Didn’t try the spa facilities but wish I did.
Hotel was really lovely, clean rooms and comfortable spaces. Breakfast was really good, lots of options.
Would 100% return to stay here.

The staff was very helpful, Gary on reception was amazing and was very helpful and knowledgeable of the area and gave great advice on things to do. The breakfast was alright and the bar area was very good and the barman was kind and very attentive. Good food and drink in the bar.

My room was very clean and well done to the cleaners for their part in it. The room was a little bit smaller than the photos but a beautiful view of the bay/port. There was a slight watery sound when I was trying to sleep at night, not sure if it was the pipes or the Air-con but would get that checked out.

Overall a lovely hotel, well worth a visit if you are going to the port or going to see the area or white cliffs

Very friendly and welcoming staff. The room was clean and they had made a sofa bed up for my son. Plenty of tea,coffee and biscuits and the towels were lovely large ones instead of the usual face cloth you get to dry yourself with in many hotels. We liked the Bluetooth mirror in the bathroom and the soap etc was filled. The room and bathroom were very cold due to the old sash windows which were quite draughty. However you were able to control the heating easily and so were able to warm the room quite quickly. We did not sample the restaurant or spa services as this was only a one night stay.

We had an excellent view of the sea (the thick mist cleared after the first day!).

We didn't visit the spa but we found our stay most relaxing and pleasant.

Parking right outside was very easy with the Ringo app so we didn't bother with the car park pass that is also offered.

Unfortunately this is the second time running I've have to make negative comments about the hotel. The room was clean and presentable, but was too small for a double bed. The distance beween to edge of the bed and the outside wall was no more than nine inches reduced by heavy curtains, the space between the end of the bed and a wall was approxmately ten inches, but reduced at standing hieght by the television protruding inches from the wall which meant without care or confused state during a vacuation would be a dangerous safety hazzard (photos available) Finally there was no plug the wasbasin

The room was lovely and the location is excellent, the food was tasty & the drinks were good too.

The service was okay, we arrived at 11:30 and told to come back and park the car later in the day - when we then returned, we were told there were no spaces left and had to pay to park. Also none of the restaurant areas are dog friendly in spite of the hotel being, which makes things quite tricky for eating out there.

Otherwise a lovely stay and would recommend - a few minor improvements and this hotel could be 5 star.

After arriving back in the UK after a few years this was perfect. It is comaratively well priced for a Hilton and had I investigated the pricing over the following weeks, I would have stayed for longer than three nights. The sauna is good, beds exeptionally comfortable and the restaurant is very good and extremely well priced. I am used to paying more than double in most European countries for the same fare. The staff are all so good, well informed and pleasant that it is humbling, in a way. Such a wonderful thing after not interfacing with British people for so long. I do not merely reccomend you stay here but I command it, or I shall track you down!!

Hotel is old but, for some of us, that is part of the charm. Floor of my room was very creaky. Since I was alone it wasn’t an issue for me but don’t know how it would be for someone in the room below mine. I had a sea front room with a balcony. Patio windows are original, single pane glass but windows have heavy drapes that serve to block out cold winds. I would very likely stay here again.

Not sure who or how this hotel is rated as excellent. Hotel was misleading and does not meet the Hilton brand. We booked as it was a Hilton but i dont think it was a true Hilton, maybe a franchise?

I had to leave as soon as i saw the 2 rooms. Customer service was amazing and nice man. They gave refund asap.

Positives

1 - Nice customer service

Negatives
1 - Windows let in cold air and draft as its old wooden windows,
2 - Window lets in lots of noise from road and marina
3 - Windows not air tight
4 - Windows have a sticker so cant be opened as pigeons may fly in!
5 - No heat when we came hence had to check out

To me, this was the worst Hilton hotel I ever stayed. One could smell the wet paint in the room and the corridors. It seemed some areas are still under renovation or repair. I had to request for room swapping as my mistress was allergic to the paint smell. Housekeeping was missed the next day after swapping. I had to report to the reception for the concern and asked for new towels. Inter-team communication seemed insufficient.

The hotel room was clean and newly renovated. The view out the small window though was awful - derelict parking lot and stuff. The hotel lobby is lovely and inviting and the staff was superb. The food in the hotel's bar was reasonably priced for the area. Shopping is literally behind the hotel and the beachfront is right there.

I did however feel that some of the staff did not speak fluent English and the hallways were in the middle of renovation which made them ugly and sad looking. There was no room number on the door either. There were comprehension errors on the menu and signs in the building. One sign in the shower asked you to \"put the curtain in the shower\" when they meant the rubberized mat to keep you from slipping. I would stay again.
