Very happy. It did what it said on the tin. A little old fashioned.... which was right nice!! Local to The Cliffs for a show. Early check-in was very welcomed alone with parking, so able to go off, have a walk, a drink & enjoy the show.

This is an older property and average condition but very clean. It is 17 minute walk to Southend Central train station. Hotel has a wonderful breakfast in a delightful breakfast room overlooking the garden or street. It is easy walking to the Pier or High Street for shopping or along the ocean promenade.

Lovely stay
Lovely stay; recently refurbished room and sparkling clean en-suite. Made good use of the fan provided, during a warm night. Only suggestion is to offer fruit, yogurt and perhaps croissants for breakfast as not everyone likes a full English. However, our breakfast was well cooked and delicious. Had good advice and help with parking, as we arrived, which was much appreciated as parking is tight.
