Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No lift – difficult with heavy luggage or mobility issues — The hotel has no working elevator, so you'll need to manage stairs with your bags. This is especially challenging for guests with wheelchairs or limited mobility.
  • No air conditioning — Rooms can get warm, particularly in summer, as there is no air conditioning – only heating is listed.
  • Modest value rating — Value scores lower than other categories (6.7), suggesting some guests feel the price-to-experience ratio could be better for a 2-star property.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a dog or cat, this isn't the place – the policy is strictly no pets.

“The lack of a working lift was a real letdown – carrying luggage upstairs was a hassle, and being without an elevator was especially frustrating since my daughter uses a wheelchair.”

“The room was clean and the bathroom was in good condition.”

“A great low-budget option in a charming old building. The staff were friendly and the room was fine, but the bed was genuinely super comfy. I'd stay again and recommend it.”

“Lovely stay! Perfect location just steps from the beach. The room was big enough for the family, and the beds and towels were the most comfortable I've come across in a hotel.”

“I'd been looking forward to South Pier, and Kings Promenade was perfectly placed for it. The service was excellent, and Harlequins, the beachfront restaurant, served a cracking full English breakfast to start the day.”
