Great modern hotel on the waterfront walkable to centre and local car parks. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful and there were tables available with a wonderful view. Room was tastefully decorated and clean. We visited in the winter so it was quite cold in the room - heating was available but the room took all night to warm up and we were checking out by then. Would stay again if we were back though.

They need to finish remodeling first.
The hotel is still being refurbished, which we were not told by the email we received for the hotel and also it was not listed on the Hotel website. There was no hot water in the room. After telling the receptionist (which was very friendly) the water was turned on the next day in the morning and then it went out again. The window in my room was not sealed well, it was very cold and you could hear the wind com through the broken seal like a drift.

What I liked...the hotel is neat and clean. It is at beach front location with paid parking available. The rooms are good size with good partition in family rooms. What I didn't like...There is a lack of basic facilities such as lack of iron and no tea making facilities in room like a kettle. The breakfast is really basic, the sausages were not proper sausages, they were the boiled ones. There was no fried egg, you have to boil your own eggs and no beans, no tomatoes to go with your sausages. Staff- the guy at check in was lovely. When we told him about the lack of kettle in the rooms and how we felt like having tea, he pointed us to the coffee/tea machine where we could unwind. There were also water bottles there which we could use. Later that day when we came back from dinner there was a lady on the shift. She was quite rude and interrupted us when I went to the machine to make tea. She said that the machine was only to be used for breakfast and we can't make tea. I politely referred her to what her colleague had said and she said he was not doing his job properly. I asked her to check policy with management and she replied rudely that she didn't need to check. I explained that there is a discrepancy between staff setting their own rules and if the coffee machine is in the public area it is meant for use. I then picked up a water bottle and she made us put it back and said we cannot use it. Hotel needs consistent policies. Sauna is there but only 3 hours a day.

Pleasant stay
The check-in staff was pleasant and accommodating. The room was large, pretty basic, but with glass to ceiling window which gave us a wonderful view of the ocean, we were satisfied. Since we were on the top floor, which we requested, we were not bothered by the noise from the street and restaurants below. However, there is no air-conditioning and we were there on a very hot day. Luckily, we were provided an electric fan by the front desk staff, so that helped. Cleanliness can be improved. The window ledge was dusty and it seemed was not dusted the whole 3 days of our stay. Location is excellent, beach front and walking distance to lots of restaurants. Breakfast was basic but sufficient, although the quality of the breads could not be compared to the ones we had in the other hotels we stayed in Bruges and France. Overall, we had a pleasant stay.

This hotel is an awesome place to stay! Beautiful view of the beach and sea out our window. Breakfast included hot food, fresh fruit, yogurt, breads & great coffee. There is a nice sauna room with 2 types of saunas & relaxing room. The rooftop area was a great view & would be a nice place to relax in the warmer weather. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful! I would definitely recommend this hotel & would love to go back again!
