It’s a fantastic hotel with amazing views as you’d expect from the name. The staff are ever so friendly and helpful and I really enjoyed making the most of the gym and other facilities especially as I visited in a quiet season. The only downside is that the mattress in the room felt very stiff and dated. Apart from that I’d stay there again! (Maybe in a different room though)

Great hotel, would stay again

On arrival, we were greeted with a smile and a very informative reception desk, which is always nice. Our room was ready and couldn't really faulty it clean, warm, comfy bed. The only letdown was instant coffee, a room at a premium rate should always have coffee pods not instant. Breakfast was great plenty of choice and both mornings the front of the house was fantastic.

We have just had a two night stay at The View Hotel. Its location was fantastic for us as we were going to 2 gigs a few minutes walk away. Easy to park the car out the front in the bays (a few pounds a day). Our room was lovely, upgraded to king size and part sea view. Breakfast to die for..everything you could possibly want. It wasn’t a problem for us as we were out till late…but it’s Christmas party season and on both nights parties were banging till midnight …so no early night folks as the room was vibrating….everything thing else…perfect x
