My husband and I with my mother and father (80) stayed for five nights, seaview and balcony (near the lift for my father). Food was adequate. Breakfast fruit, cerals and cooked breakfast (only one slice of bacon) but lots of toast. Dinner choice of starters, choice of 2 meats, fish or vegetarian or omelette and choice of pudds. Clean and... more

We had so looked forward to our weekend away at The Albion but were hugely disappointed by the shabby bedroom. We had paid for a junior suite (£434 for 3 nights) and had expected more than highly-patterned clashing carpet, curtains and bedlinen. The purple sofa was stained and off-putting. It made us question the cleanliness of the rest of the... more

This review has already been posted on the Sandringham Hotel listing and I have already answered all of the points on the Sandringham's listing. To summarise though, our bedrooms at the Albion Hotel ARE NOT shabby. We spent almost four years upgrading and renovating the property and the rooms, along with the views and furnishings are lovely - perhaps some...

I stayed at this hotel from Saturday 22 August for two night with my two sisters. We found the rooms and bathrooms very much above average. Our complaint comes regarding the evening meals. On Saturday it was completely unacceptable! In fact it defied definition! We have never experienced such bad meals ever! Obviously all the food is prepared and platted... more

I stayed at the Albion Hotel for three nights with my mum (she is 62, I am 36) in August 2009. I was slightly dubious about the hotel having read some of the other reviews on this website but was so pleasantly surprised and had a fantastic stay there. We got a special three night deal and they booked our... more

This hotel won't be to everyone's liking. Most of the guests are older, mostly couples, probably outdoor types. We loved it! Polite staff, keen to please, attentive but not overwhelming. Rooms were ok, most have sea views and the hotel is within 10 yards of the sea. Bathroom facilities we only just satisfactory. Freshwater is a place where nothing much... more

I cannot believe some of the generous comments by some guests. We stayed there and found the service, especially in the bar, sub-standard. The young barman was rude and made no attempt to make you feel 'at home'. He made comments about customers' private conversations and, generally, did not want to serve you, often disappearing elsewhere in the hotel. Complaints... more

I am somewhat surprised to receive your comments here on tripadvisor some 21 months after you last stayed at the Albion Hotel (October 2007). Since your last visit, much has changed at the Albion Hotel in terms of our how we operate the business and the team of staff we employ. The bar manager and licensee of 8 years to...

The week was one of warm sunshine, which helped no end towards a relaxing and enjoyable stay. We had a patio room, and spent much time sitting outside our room with a view of sea, sky, rocks, cliffs and several miles of horizon - bliss! First two evenings I thought the food was a bit ordinary. Thereafter a touch of... more

We stayed at the Albion for 2 nights over May Bank holiday. The room we had was excellent - recently decorated, ensuite was large and clean. Room was very warm but cooled with the balcony door open, a little noisy form the sea at night though. Food was excellent althoug breakfast was a little meagre. Full English does not consist... more
