Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Camelot Seafront Hotel enjoys an amazing location, right opposite the South Pier and very close to Pleasure Beach, with a tram stop conveniently located outside. Many guests have found the rooms spacious, some with lovely sea views, and appreciate features like good showers and TVs. Free parking is available on Dean Street next to the hotel, a definite bonus, although spaces can fill up quickly. While some have noted the hotel's external appearance looks a little old, the value for money is often described as fabulous.

a satisfactory stay

spacious room sea view rough edges poor workmanship
the room was spacious and had a lovely sea view. breakfast had good value, and there was no pressure to order it. i enjoyed the convenience.
The room i stayed in was a bit rough around the edges. it started leaking during heavy rain. It was not the hotel owners fault, just poor workmanship.

A Decent Stay

ceiling fan friendly owner stained carpet rundown hotel
The room had a FAN built into the ceiling light. This helped keep the room cool. The owner and manager was lovely and friendly, I found this cute.
The hotel looks a little run down. It needs a good paint in halls and stairway. I also noted the room carpet was very stained.

underwhelming stay

old building cooking fat smell
the breakfast was alright, nothing special but acceptable.
the front of the building looked aged and needed some fresh paint. the entrance had cobwebs full of dead flies, it was uninviting. inside, a strong smell of old cooking fat filled the lobby, very unpleasant.

The room had a modern shower room. It also had a LARGE smart tv in the room. The manager seemed fantastic, he was called pete.
The beds WERE not the comfiest. The room had only an office blind, not curtains. Lights from the pier SHONE into the bedroom at night.
