I had such a wonderful stay at this hotel! The room was extremely comfy with an amazing view, but the shower could use a bit of improvement. The service was top-notch, making me feel truly valued as a guest. The hotel's location was absolutely perfect, right on the seafront with a breathtaking view from the balcony. The dining experience was delightful with a good supply of coffee and tasty jam. The facilities were excellent overall, but the price was a bit high for what was offered.

The hotel offers stunning views over the Thames Estuary, with a balcony overlooking the seafront. The rooms are cozy with a very comfortable bed, perfect for families with a 13-month-old. The service is accommodating and friendly, but the dining options could be more varied. The location, right on the seafront in Southend on Sea, is ideal for a short seaside getaway.
