A tired old hotel with a Holiday Inn sign
It’s quite a tired old property reminiscent of the 60s. The carpeted were worn, paint on the woodwork was peeling. There was practically no soundproofing meaning we could hear everything going on in the adjacent rooms and those above and below. The mattress left both of us in pain the next morning.
On balance, the staff were welcoming and willing to assist with any requests. The location near Clarence Pier was great.
Overall, it’s not what I expected from a Holiday Inn. I tend to gravitate towards the Holiday Inn chain as I can usually expect a modern and comfortable hotel. On this occasion, it did not meet that expectation.

Overcharged for parking
No complaints about the hotel whatsoever. Breakfast was great.
I booked the parking when I booked the room through hotels.com and it was £44
Parking is £5 from the hotel.
