I only stayed 1 night and it’s the best sleep I’ve had in a hotel since I can remember checking was easy and very friendly front of house through to the room being worth far more than I paid now I’m not someone who looks for faults and none came to light as even though we was on the ground floor and at the front we heard neither the outside world or the other guests the free breakfast was lovely and the lady in the dinking/room reception was very helpful upon checkout so much so we will be returning because I just can’t fault it we stayed 25/05/24-26/05/24 in room 32 and it was well worth it so we will be returning as long as rooms are available thank you guys for a great stay

The Esplanade Hotel was great value for money, (Room 32) We would highly recommend it for a comfortable night and a most amazing and enjoyable breakfast. The front desk receptionist (Lilly) was very helpfull.

The hotel is on the Sea Front within walking distance of the Pier but far enough away to avoid the noise..Our room was nice and bright with a lovely sea view to wake up to. The bed was lovely and soft It was nice to have a Fire-stick in the TV with a variety of channels to watch including Netflix and Prime lastly the hotel served a nice full English breakfast to get the day going.Overall exceptional value for money will definitely book again

Advertised as having restaurant and bar. Restaurant closed three days a week and only fish and chip bar when open. Bar closed for "pipe cleaning" on Monday. Not really a hotel just B&B.

Disappointing
Hotel needs refurbishing. Shower scalding hot. Sand on carpet. No wifi in the bedroom. Even in reception very slow. No phone, we were on the 2nd floor at one end of building. No lift. Definitely not a 3*. Staff polite but not motivated to make a good impression. Very disappointed for a first trip out after lockdown. Plus side, room had an excellent view of the seafront, the pier, the hundreds of wind turbines in the sea. Breakfast was very nice. Condition of Hotel lets it down. Car park for 4 cars at the back of hotel. You have to go out front door into the road and follow it round the next turning right.
