    It was all good clean, nicely decorated no issues at all.

    A refurbishment to a high standard has been undertaken for this three star hotel at Sand Bay. It was very comfortable, the evening meal and breakfast were both excellent. Staff lovely and friendly and very efficient. The hotel even catered for wheat free (includes gluten free). Very impressed and we will return.

    Could hear the people in the next room but unsure how they fix that! Sink was a little small but this didn’t ruin the experience & was usable for the time we were there.

    The hotel was clean & modern. Greeted by staff & offered a complimentary welcome drink. Room was comfortable, bathroom clean with a beautiful rainfall shower. Smart TV. Room was warm & there was a great fan in the wardrobe which we found useful as we did find it too warm at night. Breakfast offer was brilliant & was very impressed by the range of hot options included as well as continental. Good location to visit Weston Super Mare but a quieter spot to spend the night. Beautiful beach literally on the other side of the road, hope to come back & enjoy this in warmer months.

    Nothing. We can't say that we would consider paying the full £110 for this room, though. I know charges go up in the summer, but this is more like an £80 room at best.

    When we first arrived at the hotel there was no one at reception to greet us or check us in. We had to wait at leas 10 mins for someone to arrive, bare in mind we had a small child with us and a few heavy bags. There is no lifts in the hotel which is also a downfall especially if you’ve got heavy luggage and you’ve drove 2 hours. Corridors were freezing cold, when we entered the room it was cold. The room isn’t too big however as it was just me my husband and 2 year old it was ok for us. The walls are super duper thin and you can hear literally everything, we had a couple next door and you can can hear conversation word for word, the couple weren’t loud however because the walls are so thin it’s so easy to hear. Pain was coming off furniture, rooms can do with decorating as well as bathroom. Mattress was horrible so uncomfortable. We were there for 2 nights and we did leave the room few times however no housekeeping came in to clean the room. We had found 2 hairss in our food in salt rock restaurant and one of the nights we just went to the restaurant to eat dessert I had got the warm brownie however very disappointing as brownie wasn’t much of a brownie and more of a sponge cake

    The hotel was a brilliant find, a little hidden gem in the Village of Kewstoke. We mainly booked the hotel because of the beautiful sea view and that did not disappoint absolutely amazing I would go back just for the sea view. We did pay a little extra for the sea view and I must say it was stunning and well worth it. There isn’t too much to do walking distance however you do have Sands bay right opposite the hotel. Salt Rock which is the hotel’s restaurant was a small cosy little restaurant to have a meal. We had the hotel’s breakfast which was part of the booking cost, we went for the vegetarian full English however only downfall was that we found 2 hairs in our food which was slightly off putting, otherwise it was very taste especially the vegetarian sausages. The rooms are cosy with a nice big television which includes Netflix, YouTube etc. We didn’t come across many hotel staff however the few did were very friendly and approachable. The Elemis Toiletries in the bathroom were also nice touch. Underfloor heating in the bathroom was amazing especially as the temperature was -3.

    The car park and area surrounding the hotel is untidy and could do either a tidy up.

    Location is good. Most of the staff were very friendly and helpful. Decor is bright and clean.

    Could have done with more hooks in the bathroom perhaps.

    I liked breakfast. If I had my chance again, I would have taken more time over it. For example, starting with a pastry or cereal before ordering one of the hot options on offer.

    Dinner was okay, - the starters were quite good, but I was a bit underwhelmed with the quality of the main course.

    Loved the room. Ideal for me and my son. The view would have been great but thick fog meant we couldnt see it!!

    The room was comfortable and warm, but the entrance door was difficult to open (on a heavy spring) and the bathroom door was in a very rough state for some reason?

    The food was absolutely wonderful and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We were greeted with a complimentary drink upon our arrival, which was a nice touch. There was a good breakfast choice and the food was excellent. We stayed for evening meals and again the food served was of a very high standard. We will point out that we had the Sunday roast dinner and this was the best roast ever...So well presented and absolutely delicious! The location was good for us, with a good bus service into Weston-super-Mare. We also took the opportunity to walk into Weston and that was a pleasant trek.
