Absolutely lovely spot! Walking along the beautiful beachside was a real treat. Ate in the a la carte restaurant, great food, huge portions, had to have a take away box! Bed comfortable and room spacious.

The hotel is located close to the beach and airport. They also have a display showing arrivals and departures. Hotel staff were very friendly. Breakfast was delicious and had a great selection. As for the room, it was clean but I wasn‘t a fan of the roof windows for this classic single room on the third floor (120x). The only thing I could see was the sky and felt as if the walls were closing in. I definitely wanted out of the room as soon as I walked in it, so that’s what I did.

Not a 4 star hotel
The hotel itself is OK. Very nice location with the beach, etc. Good service and good food. Pleasant atmosphere. However, the hotel is old and it is in need of an upgrade (at least if it wants to keep its current 4 stars status). The room we stayed, and paid extra for, was a De Lux room with sea view, and the condition and size of that room was not worthy a 4 star hotel. I have been in 3 star hotels in better condition than this one.

Staycation
Enjoyed an overnighting here with three meals and a visit to their spa. Everything was fine, and the hotel was busy. Having stayed here before, we got the feeling the hotel is not fully back to normal operations since the pandemic, and perhaps a bit under-staffed. Regardless, it's a great place for a get-away, and we'll be back!

Good location and breakfast
I was disappointed that a hotel that is on the beach, had so few rooms that actually had a view towards the beach or dunes. I had a “lovely” view of a road and parking lot. I’m sure the experience would have been nicer with a view, but so it goes.

Lacklustre service in beautiful location and
The hotel has a beautiful location on the beach, somehow the service has turned lacklustre. Also, no twin beds available, and the double beds are very narrow. We did however get a very nice room with a great view. One member of staff was the only one who seemed to care...

Très bel hôtel situé dans un endroit idyllique, malgré la proximité de l'aéroport. Excellent accueil. Compliments au chef pour le dîner, mais le service était inexistant... quelle déception ! Petit déjeuner très décevant aussi : 45 min avant la fin du service, il n'y avait plus grand chose sur les plateaux et les plats chauds étaient tout desséchés et immangeables.

En sjarm over hotellet. Bærer preg av at det er fra 1914. Jeg og min partner hadde rom på gamle delen. Veldig lytt ifra trapper og gang. Ikke sjokk men en del støy fra flyplassen. God seng og helt grei hotell frokost. Alt i alt en ok opplevelse.
