It’s a very traditional hotel in a lovely, scenic landscape. It also provides a lot of entertainment for youths. It is within walking distance to the station, the High Street and it’s by the sea with a wonderful park in front of it.

A Typically British Seaside Hotel

A friend and I had a lovely stay at this Westcliff Hotel having enjoyed an evening at the theatre nearby. Room had a sea view, twin beds were comfortable, breakfast was good, bar service was good, staff lovely and friendly. Bedding and towels were clean, toiletries were provided, walk in shower nice and hot. Sadly though like a lot of our seaside hotels, it is very 'tired' and needs some refurbishment. Have stayed here before and would stay again - will remember my plug for charger next time as sockets not updated with USB connections!

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the plumbing to the hotel is inadequate in regards to pressure and the hot tap had to run for 5 minutes to be just tepid. Could be a fantastic place to stay if the shower situation was rectified.

Good for a no frills stay

This is a well placed hotel with great access to the beach. Parking was easy and check in fine. I was disappointed with the 'gym'. Cardio equipment did not have power, there was an abandoned piece of equipment and I dont think anyone should work out there alone, no one would know you were there. The room was comfortable although everytime I used water, there was a loud noise from what I think was a water tank? Decor felt quite modern. Restaurant staff were super polite and it was clean.
