I found the hotel to tired and a bit grotty. The gym was poor, the parking inadequate and the room fitted with curtains that didn't block out the significant light from the road.

A tired old hotel with a Holiday Inn sign

It’s quite a tired old property reminiscent of the 60s. The carpeted were worn, paint on the woodwork was peeling. There was practically no soundproofing meaning we could hear everything going on in the adjacent rooms and those above and below. The mattress left both of us in pain the next morning. On balance, the staff were welcoming and willing to assist with any requests. The location near Clarence Pier was great. Overall, it’s not what I expected from a Holiday Inn. I tend to gravitate towards the Holiday Inn chain as I can usually expect a modern and comfortable hotel. On this occasion, it did not meet that expectation.

It was quiet as Christmas but the hotel was lovely. The pool etc was lovely the restaurant was great. We had a drink at night and that was very silent. Could do with some music. There was a fan of coke and a kitkat in our room which was great but there was 3 of us and could have 4 in the room so maybe it wasn’t restocked or meant to be in there? I don’t know
