First of all, I must say, thank you Veronika, you are amazing person, very friendly and even she was wearing the mask, I felt her smile on my arrival. The atmosphere is fantastic in this hotel, very clean, in Aston room I felt like in the Castel, nice colours, warm, comfortable bed, the bar and breakfast areas lovely, the entire building itself it's beautiful. I have seen something similar in Paris and I am speechless. Congratulations for the owners! Thank you for everything! I would love to come back.

Have just watched James on four in a bed and if the appalling way he behaved throughout every stay then I wouldnt stay at this hotel if it was the last place available on earth. He was arrogant, self absorbed and a wind Im merchant. Cant believe he can run a hotel / business like this but maybe mummy does it all for him.

Superb Guesthouse, such friendly and welcoming staff. Our suite, Goodwood, was just stunning and breakfast superb. I have nothing but praise.

Newly refurbished hotel in a quiet location. Every room has its own decoration, ours was one of the biggest. Interesting to be in a house with history. Breakfast was good. The bathroom had two big steps down and glass (though opaque) door without any lock or even catch - it felt not private enough. Simple cutch would help against the door bouncing back against the wall. The restaurant only serves breakfast. The bar had no drink menu and the choice was absolute basic for that type of accomodation. The parking is too small.

Gorgeous boutique hotel, friendly and helpful staff. There are no lifts, but its only 2 floors. We went off peak, so the reception and bar aren't manned all the time, but staff come quickly when you ring. No phone in the rooms to contact reception, but it isn't far to walk. 5 min walk to overcliff Road and another 5 mins down the zig zag path to the beach, but there are no amenities in the area or you can forgo the zig zag and walk 20 mins to the pier where there is plenty going on. Really nice cooked breakfast but they offer no other meals there.
