The general condition of the hotel was dated, needs a major refurbishment. My room was very basic, with a missing toilet roll fixing and missing a decent chair to sit on. The bed not very comfortable, a little springy for my liking, the colour scheme while in keeping with the hotel colour was too dark but all things said, for a 2 night stay ,it was adequate.

Staff were very helpful, food was good and the locality excellent.

The breakfast was very good, full English breakfast with unlimited tea/coffee and toast. My son only wanted toast and cereal for which they did not charge for this. Sea views from dinning area are fantastic. Staff are friendly and helpful.

There is no parking on site.. street parking is very limited. It's a little out of town but with a car, not an issue.

Location & Price.. On esplanade opposite the beach.. Price for international travellers who lose 50% currency on conversion is great. On site Bar, sunrooms overlooking beach are lovely ..

The room was very dated and shabby. Everything looked like it could break so I was terrified of letting the children touch anything. After being I'm the room 10 mins my partner sat on one of the beds to find it was broken - we reported it immediately to reception who were very friendly and sent maintenence to fix it while we went for a beach walk.

We stayed in a family room(18)- Was a really good size with lots of storage space. The toilet was separate from the bathroom which I thought was fab (meant I could have a shower without the children needing to come in for the loo) Great selection of tea and coffee in the room. TV with Netflix etc. We had a peaceful evening - no noise from downstairs. Great location for the beach, arcades and town,only a few minutes walk. Staff were exceptional -friendly and helpful. Was good value for money for a mini half-term break.

- WiFi would only connect to one of my devices but not the other - Room is rather small In the morning, after brushing my teeth I noticed there wasn't any hot water coming from the sink to wash my face. I wanted to have a shower before checking out but then there seemed to be no hot water coming out of the shower head either! Not impressed at all!

- comfortable bed - clean - nice location - lift

The room was small but adequate and in need of a refurb. The bed was uncomfortable.

We didn’t book breakfast. Hotel is in a good location.

The hallways could do with a refresh and the third floor was very warm with a noticeable difference in temperature as opposed to the lower floors. I also note the windows are single pane old wooden style which was a concern for us as we have young children and were booked on the top floor. The window latch was also broken.

Whilst The Sandbanks seems a little antiquated it provides everything needed for a comfortable night with the family. The view over the foothills of Snowdonia was a lovely sight to wake up to. It's clear the rooms have recently had a fresh coat of paint which I imagine was much needed. The staff are friendly and were attentive regarding a safety concern we had during our stay. The offering of a travel cot was a welcome bonus.

The receptionist, was very helpful, nothing was too much, and when we left, they took the time to ask, if everything was ok

The parking wasn’t the best, didn’t enjoy leaving my car out on the street, it also felt like I was taking up spots for people that actually lived on that street, looks like there is a decent size car park behide the hotel would be nice if that was opened for customers, was disappointed the restaurant wasn’t open

Nice location with it being so close to the sea and the view from the room was amazing to wake up to super big windows which was nice

The heating was very very loud, we would have been unable to sleep. After we talked to the receptionist it was turned off. Then the shower and TV did not work. We talked again to the receptionist then the fuse was replaced.Other than that the door did not fit in the frame, we saw the light of the hallway. In the lift it was very hot.The toilet seat was loose.

The staff was very nice and helpful. The hotel ist close to the beach. Parking is free in the sidestreets.

Carpet wasn't all the way up to the wall. The seal around the bath was wearing. The entire bathroom could do with an update. After no information on the additional costs for dogs I was told it was £8 per night. Then it was £8 per night per dog. The policy was sent to me and it stated £5 per night and only 1 dog. Then they needed to change the policy still as it wasn't up to date. The room information also stated it was £5 per night still. Very frustrated by this as "it still needs to be updated" was all I got. The lift was like a sauna and the corridors are only slightly cooler.

I had a sea view room on the second floor and it was wonderful. Even though it rained all of the first night, it was wonderful to sit and watch the sea as it slowly got darker.

Floor very uneven. Side window had wind whistling noises coming through all night. Breakfast we think was slightly overpriced for the amount of cooked breakfast. Although toast and cereal was available if wanted.

Lovely view from the room looking towards the sea. Warm. Clean bathroom

Noisy, as you can hear people about banging, wallpaper peeling off and hot water doesn't last very long. Cups dirty but would still stay again

The room was really big and the view was excellent

No food available at beginning of week but just a short stroll into town where there are lots of places to eat. No car park at hotel but easy parking on side street.

Very friendly staff, accommodating in letting us book in early. Room clean and tidy ( little dated decoration).
