What guests think

The Abbey Hotel and conference centre offers a simple, good-value stay with consistently friendly staff, generally clean rooms, and ample on-site parking, though much of the property and furnishings feel dated.

Breakfast and the on-site restaurant receive frequent praise for quality and portions. Rooms are basic and vary in size and comfort, and several guests note thin walls and bathrooms or showers that need updating or have low pressure. The setting is quiet and a short walk from the seafront, though a few found fewer bars and shops nearby. Overall, expect a straightforward, no-frills stay.

A massive carpark all around the hotel and motel ,you can even park outside your room !, Reception check in was quickno info given Room was ok ,clean and verely spacious as was the bathroom Bed was a bit lumpy and creaky Had a patio sliding door which leads to the beer garden but not really practical to leave open during the night and room does get hot ! WiFi was excellent Shower was powerful but cold took awhile to get any warmer ! Breakfast not included unsure if you could add or not Evening meal was excellent a good choice menu and value for money Close to the beach and about 20 min walk to the town centre. Have stayed here a few times and a different experience each time . Would stay again when in the area as not many hotels to choose from.

We went for a family get together. The food was excellent and the service great. The room was small and some furniture was dated. The shower was more of a climb in than a walk in. For the money we paid it was fine but with a good rebrand the hotel could do a lot better. Also need to get some real ale in the bar.

Felt able to relax really well. Food in restaurant fine, again bar and dining room very dated but good choice on menu and big portions. Enjoyed the privacy and the challet type room. We would definitely stay there again.

A pleasant no frills hotel. Its clean and in good repair. Free WiFi was on the slow side. The restaurant was limited but the food was good, both evening meal and breakfast. Thin walls, I could hear too much from adjacent rooms. Water pressure was low in the bathroom. The staff were helpful but no morning reception when I needed a business invoice was a bit unusual (they did email it).

We appreciated the generous early check in and late checkout. 14:00 and 11:00 respectively. Parking bang outside your accommodation with ample space is also a big plus. Larger than average TV and the usual other facilities. Room was pretty warm but ventilation was good. Comfy bed. The location was excellent. Quiet, peaceful and a very short walk from the sea, restaurants and shops.
