This hotel is great, although a little out-dated/old fashioned in some areas including bedrooms. Staff are friendly and professional. Breakfast was always good with a wide variety of options. The pool area was lovely - not too busy & had use of pool, sauna, steam room & jacuzzi from 7am - 8pm. We stayed in the main hotel, so cannot comment on the side lodge. However we did hear some people complaining re the lodge & asking to move so maybe it isn’t as nice as main hotel. Location wise is great - local shop 1-2 minute away and beach is just a 5 minute walk to cliff lift or 10-15 min if walking the cliff. One main problem was that every time we turned the TV on it defaulted to babestation, we didn’t have children with us but if we did this might have been an issue! We were in room 52, so not sure if this was just our room or every room was defaulted. We did let someone know so hopefully it can be fixed. It isn’t as luxury or modern as other hotels, but it does the job for showering, changing, sleeping etc - you’ll spend most of the time out on beach or in town! Also, the shower was temperamental and didn’t work on 2 days just wouldn’t turn on. We also reported this so I’m sure it’ll be fixed before the next guests. Lift is very small and for someone who hates small spaces, I opted for stairs each time (grown some leg muscles haha!). We had balconies (3rd floor) which are small don’t get me wrong but they do the job. View isn’t great but it was lovely to have the balcony. Overall the hotel ticks all the boxes and does the job, despite being a little out-dated in some areas. Cannot fault the cleanliness or staff. Thanks again Connaught for a lovely week! :)
