Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had a few drawbacks with outdated amenities in the rooms, but it was very clean and not a major issue. The service, especially in the dining room during breakfast, was exceptional. The location was perfect, offering an enjoyable stay close to the pier with plenty of activities to do. Dining at The Redcliffe was a delightful experience with great views of the sea. Overall, a mixed experience with some ups and downs.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were clean and fresh, with a partial sea view from the round tower. The staff were very helpful and friendly, particularly Danelle who went out of her way to accommodate our needs. The location was right on the seafront, offering lovely views and easy access to the beach and pier.
The hotel has a stunning sea view and spacious rooms, but the service can be hit or miss. The location is unbeatable right on the beach, though lacking some atmosphere. Dining is a mixed experience with freshly cooked options yet sometimes short-staffed.
