Hotel closed and boarded up

When we arrived to check in we found the hotel closed and a brick through the window. We were left having to book a second hotel at our expense. Still looking to receive a refund for our booking.

Hotel could do with an update but considering the very good pricing it does the job. Free car parking and an easy short walk to the sea front.

To be honest the hotel is in need of a complete refurbishment but our room was tidy, everything worked, the location of the hotel is first class, a short walk to shops, restaurants, the harbour and the beach, a four night stay in August, room only and free parking for just over £200.00 perfect 👍

Don't Book it's closed.

Hotel is closed but still taking bookings & money. Arrived at the hotel to find the reception in darkness & unmanned. I came back 2 hrs later & still no receptionist however a workman appeared & told me that the hotel was closed. I asked for the manager & when he arrived I explained that I had 2 nights booked & paid for, he just told me to contact Hotels .Com for a refund. Thanks for ruining my easter weekend.
