It is just standard, slightly dated but perfectly acceptable hotel.

I could not stay the second night.
This was due to sleeping ( on a night of high wind) with my neck directly in a draft. I only found thus out on waking at about 5am.
By the time I took my breakfast, my neck was stiff and I told reception of the proble.( the seals around the door had failed)
I was attending a play in the early afternoon, during which I could hardly move my neck.
I returned to the hotel and booked out. Leaving my number for the
Manager to call me on Friday.
Alas no one has phone

The only thing this time of year is there are festive parties going on and restaurant not open. Disco goes on until midnight, we had ear plugs fortunately!

The hotel was easy to find and we were pleased to find that our room was spacious, clean and had a side sea view - not expected. We booked through a third party and got great value too. The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly.

The hotel advertises deals through their web site as well as at the hotel. The parking is on the sea front opposite the hotel and very reasonable.
The breakfast was freshly prepared and a lot of choice and the bar is well stocked.

As always, our experience gained over many years, the View has everything. A prime position close to the town , theatres and is on the sea front . It has very high standards of service, attentive staff, excellent with wide choice of food at breakfast served in a relaxed comfortable environment. Bedrooms are always warm and clean with everything, including tea and coffee facilities to hand. The bed so comfortable it’s hard to get up and leave in the morning! Through many years we have never had a complaint and always look forward to our return
and clean comfortable.

Have stayed here before several times. An amazingly good hotel considering it is only 3 star but presumably only because it doesn’t have a spa, swimming pool etc. Rooms, restaurants and particularly the staff are all excellent. Would recommend to anyone.

very welcoming, was exactly as booked, was a deal offer, so made it worth it. Opted for a side sea view room, great choice. Breakfast was excellent, the location is great, short walk to town, the pier and restaurants. We will be back when deal is right...
Other Comments
The bar as its open to the public, closes at 11pm, then its drinks via reception staff, too much hassle..... Normally hotel bars are late opening for guests... no enthusiasm to mess about from sitting in the bar to then go to reception to arrange more drinks... Included breakfast was excellent..

Lovely hotel. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Our room had a balcony with a side sea view. Breakfast was excellent, with everything being constantly replenished. Only criticism would be that the balcony could have done with a clean, dirty glass and lots of cobwebs. We have booked to go back.

Very comfortable large en suite bedroom and bathroom/wc. Shower difficult to operate. Bath welcome, but difficult to mix hot/cold taps. Buffet breakfast excellent with hot, well-prepared food and plenty of choice. Breakfast timings very wide, which was welcome. Highly suitable for disabled people. No hassles or niggles.

Part of the road along the esplanade was closed, which made it very difficult to navigate our route to the hotel, as there is a one way system in the town. This was not The View’s fault, but it was a source of great frustration for us
