The staff at the hotel were so friendly and attentive that we could not fault them The restaurant staff were so polite and could not have been better in any way.

Value for money can’t be disputed. To make a longer break we added an additional night which was not such good value! So overall not so good. Park Central is getting tired. Clean yes, but really tired. Crab restaurant is well presented with included dinner which was perfectly acceptable but limited choice. Breakfast disappointing for apparent standard of venue. Staff friendly and attentive.

Having bought as deal on Travelzoo, found when trying to book, only 5 rooms per day allocated to the offer.
I had to pay a supplement to secure a room, as was told all the “offer” ones went very quickly.
I think hotels should not be allowed to exceed more than they can fulfill.
As they pointed out, I could have a refund or pay extra. I understand that, but think it is perhaps a way of getting people to pay the supplement rather than be disappointed.
If you could see availability of dates before buying that would be more customer friendly.

Overall a good experience. The food was very good and the service was excellent. All staff attentive, polite and very anxious to be helpful. Had a room where the window was frosted out due to footpath on other side. Room ok but slightly tired. These all contributed to low mark on Ambience/Atmosphere. However the dining area was nice so no complaints there.
Location was good but only partial view of the sea.

The room was clean but dated, also, due to illness, I tried to cancel well before due to go but their policy is not possible, went for one day and returned as I felt too unwell to spend the final day and night there.
Also lack of hot water, so couldn't shower.

The shower head in the bathroom was too large for the shower cubicle. You could not stand to the side of the head and therefore you got drenched but the bathroom was clean and tidy.
