“St Elmo Hotel strikes me as a no-frills base, especially convenient given its proximity to the Pleasure Beach; I appreciate that the staff receive consistent praise for being welcoming and helpful, and the provision of fresh white linens is a plus. Though some past visitors have pointed out minor cleanliness issues, it seems the friendly atmosphere and small garden contribute to a positive overall impression. For visitors prioritizing location and a warm welcome over pristine facilities, this could be a practical option.”

convenient locationunhelpful staffoutdated room
The location was indeed near the south pier. Very convenient i suppose
I had to wait a solid thirty minutes just for someone to answer the doorbell to even book in. Not very helpful at all i thought. The room was also quite outdated and the curtains did not close properly which let in light all night

Excellent stay. Great staff!!!

great locationcute staffcomfortable bed
The location is fantastic. I could see the pleasure beach right from my room. The staff was cute, particularly Rocky. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and relatively quiet, guaranteeing a restful night's sleep, so I woke up refreshed.
I noticed some very slight wear and tear in the room. The furniture seemed like a mismatched set.

I found the staff respectful. The bed provided adequate comfort. The staff helped get children to their room. They offered an alternative when they couldn't provide the room we paid for.
The shower produced only a slight dribble of lukewarm water. Even after letting it run for some time it didn't get hot. I resorted to boiling kettles. I used the sink to wash my daughter.

The room felt quite dated, i must say. the shower barely worked. The water pressure was low. there was also a distinct smell throughout the hotel. I suspect it was stale cigarette smoke. (i really don't know where it came from)
