I've now stayed at the Old Colonial twice, and will be visiting again in September. I'd agree that the first impression as you arrive along the seafront is not terribly favourable, however once the ultra friendly reception staff check you in, prepare to be very pleasantly surprised by the excellent rooms. Both the standard doubles I have so far occupied... more

I liked this hotel. The guy who helped us at reception - Richard? - was efficient and friendly. There is free parking and a good, but not great, pub below. The room was spacious and comfortable and reasonably clean. The plumbing system was odd and noisy but worked OK. For what we paid I was satisfied...I was worried about the... more

We stayed at The Old Colonial Hotel for a night away and were very pleased with the location. The hotel itself has a great bar downstairs that serves typical pub grub, not too special but not too pricey either.

Lovely white bed linen, tasteful neutral carpets and curtains, flat screen TV... more

On arrival, I remained reassured by previous reviews not to let the exterior put me off. Essentially, it is an big old sea front pub with rooms upstairs. Once inside and checked in, I was presented with a cavernous room with a full view of the sea and pier. It had nice little touches which some of the so-called "budget"... more

I had the best fish and chips in a long while - worth the trip away from my family just for these! more

What a gem.. As the saying goes - looks can be deceiving... Don't let the ouside of the hotel put you off - Once we got to our room we were amazed.. Huge spacious and modern room with all mod cons inc free wi-fi. Fab bathroom with shower and clean fluffy white towels. The only negative thing I would say... more
