This was my second stay at The View. The rooms are generously sized and well-appointed, and the hotel is on a quiet stretch of the seafron, right opposite the beach.

Anniversary stay
The stay started badly, we booked the room months in advance and asked specifically for a room with a shower, when we arrived we were told that our room had a bath, slightly annoying when this was the only thing we asked for. Apart from that the room was clean with superb sea view.

We found the staff at the front desk curt and unhelpful. I would recommend having them scratch the parking permits rather than handing them to guests for them to do. Also they seem put out when asking for things like laundry and ice. Also, the price for breakfast is ridiculously expensive if not purchased in advance. After staying at 3 other hotels with free breakfast this was outrageous.

Only stayed one night. Economy room was very small but otherwise very nice. Staff were helpful and friendly. Breakfast was good. Only issue was the cleanliness of downstairs public restroom. Not cleaned. Tissue everywhere. Reported.

Very pleasant stay
Lovely hotel. Friendly staff, comfortable room. Breakfast a bit traumatic. It would have been better with table service, especially tea and coffee. I found it quite dangerous trying to get hot tea, toast etc.
