I have just returned home after a wonderful holiday in this hotel organised by Galloway Coaches of Suffolk. The Channel View Hotel would be hard to beat anywhere for its excellent facilities, very clean rooms, good choice of menu & quick service, all accompanied by helpful, friendly staff. Although I was travelling alone, I immediately felt part of a happy... More

Just returned from 5 days in this hotel. The food is excellent and an interesting selection of vegetarian meals-obviously put some effort in there. The bedroom was very comfortable and soaps etc from the en suite replaced as soon as used. The standard of cleanliness was very good. All staff were very friendly and helpful and any requests were acted... More

The only problem we had with the room was the window wouldn't stay open - it was very windy. Meals are excellent and service very fast, indeed, throughout all the staff... More

Just spent seven days at the Channel View and we had a fantastic time. We were made to feel really welcome and every need was accommodated for. We would like to add that the restaurant staff were really helpful in particular Tara who looked after us. A great family hotel.

My wife and I have recently returned from a 3 night stay at the hotel. Our package was for half board and included the ferry to/from the mainland. From the moment we arrived, until we came to leave at the end of our stay, we loved the place. It was spotlessly clean and all the staff were very friendly and... More
