Overnight Anniversary stay
Stayed for our wedding anniversary celebration. Was able to check in early but did have to leave card details and was told they would take £50 as an holding fee. Impressed with room the lovely view overlooking the sea. We had an anniversary gift left for us as below. Nice touch. We used the spa facilities, hot tub steam and pool. Some parts of these facilities looked like they needed a bit of maintenance but overall we had a great time. After heading back to our room to shower and change for the evening we decided to have drinks in the bar before taking a stroll and returning for food. Please be aware they do not stock non-alcoholic beverages and in general the drinks and food at pretty prices. A bottled cider and a Glass of Prosecco was almost £17. After this and a closer inspection of the food menu which wasn’t too our taste, we decided to head elsewhere for our evening meal. We found a local pub ‘The Bell’ which was a 6 minute walk towards Hythe town centre. We had a lovely 3 course meal for a much more reasonable price. After returning to the hotel we headed back to our room. Generally the corridors, were clean and tidy but wall paper damage was noted by the lift. The beds were comfortable and we both had a good nights sleep. Room was warm but air con worked well. We were aware of a wedding taking place below us but it wasn’t noisy. Breakfast was both continental and full English. The poached Eggs cooked to order were perfectly done. Check out was simple.

Sea trout a morsel !!!
Generally good but food in the coast restaurant very disappointing. The trout was such a measly portion I had to order bread. I spoke to three other guest who agreed. Why not do mackerel in season cheap and delicious, very poor. The service book in the room was very scrappy and not extensive enough. Needs attention The room and bed were very comfortable

The main draw for this property is its location on the Hythe seafront. It also benefits from being a large hotel with adequate parking and a spa and golf course associated with it. However, the common areas all seem to exude a 'faded glory' vibe. The fittings and fixtures are tired, the carpet is dark and the lighting is dim/inadequate/inconsistent. The rooms themselves seem to have been renovated so are more modern and up to date. I was there for a corporate event and the food catered for the meeting was very good. While the food at the restaurant was good the service was slow and tedious. The bar had awkward seating in different rooms. Overall, a pleasant stay but the whole experience could be a lot better.
