Loved by Drakes Hotel guests
"It was the aesthetic of the building it was old the outside and new on the inside but it was in keeping with the exterior of the hotel."
"Our room had the hugest bed I have ever seen and a view of the pier, as well as a hidden dressing area so that all one's luggage and belongings were hidden."
"The #1 room was so beautiful! It had a fee stair cases but easily accessible, two big windows sea view windows with comfy chairs to read by."

“What strikes me most is the artistic flair of this boutique hotel, particularly the individually designed bedrooms within a Regency building. The focus on sustainable dining at the Michelin-recommended restaurant, Dilsk, also stands out. It's clearly a place that balances luxury with a conscience, enhanced by those sea views and that intimate cocktail bar.”

the staff were so friendly and cute. their professionalism was higher than i have encountered recently in hotels. the room itself was spacious and clean. it also had a gorgeous view of the seafront and pier. i would definitely stay again.
the breakfast was a bad experience they took a long time to serve the dish. they did not offer more options and when asking for fruit they said they didnt have it. i asked for croissants and they said it would take 15 minutes as they had to defrost them. the mattresses were arched in the back.

the sea view was beautiful from the room. the king room provided ample space for luggage and relaxation. i found the bathroom quite modern, benefiting from great water pressure. the provided toiletries were a nice touch, and i liked the cleanliness.
the road noise at night impacted sleep quality. it was also very busy, and this was distracting sometimes.

I faced a few issues. The bathroom design was unusual. The shower was in the ceiling, so everything got wet. This made it hard to use the toilet after showering.

The room included tea and coffee facilities, very convenient. The homemade shortbread was also a nice touch. It was delicious!
The electric curtain covering the kettle area lacked a nearby socket. This meant I had to put the kettle on the floor, potentially dangerous. The windows were dirty and the paint was peeling around them. The windows were dirty and the paint was peeling around them, very visible.
