We booked this holiday through premier holidays, this holiday was for my parent’s 60th wedding anniversary. The hotel rooms we got were a big disappointment to us and to our parents. The quality of our bedrooms was not acceptable for a 3 star hotel, at best the rooms might be described as poor Bed and Breakfast accommodation (numbers 22 and... more

We travelled with two young children of 2.5 years and 8 months old, so we needed a hotel that could accomodate such young children, and I must say that overall the Shakespeare came up to scratch. Firstly, the family room was large and spacious. We needed two cots as our eldest has special needs and can't yet sleep in a... more

The excellent staff were polite and attentive but not obtrusive, good food well presented and reasonably priced. Hotel location is brilliant no need for hire car as bus stop is very close by. We only stayed 3 nights and would upgrade our room for a longer stay. Taxi to airport is £20. 3 day unlimited bus ticket is £15 per... more

visited this hotel for 4 days in september. although not the height of luxury (is currently being gradually renovated) we had a lovely stay. paid extra for sea view and could sit in bed and watch the sea - only a quiet road between us and the beach which is reached via a private gate. the room was maybe a... more

We had a great four-day stay at the hotel. I was with my 21 year old and my 10 year old step-daughter, so there was quite an age range. The hotel was clean and the staff and service were superb. I must praise the serving staff in the restaurant as they were efficient, helpful and highly professional. The food was... more

Location is nice, beach across road makes nice walking. Room was dated with chintz & white formica but very well stocked with tea & coffee. Shower gel etc was the paltry sachets which look really miserely. Room was clean though but had sheets & blankets. Why don't these hotels catch on to the fact that this is so old fashioned... more

The hotel was in a great liocation.The restaurant served very good food and the waiting staff were very attentive The bedrooms were very basic and noisy due to the thin walls but clean. the bathrooms need a refurbishment, the taps in the bath must be about 1900 and could not be reached without getting in the bath. Entertainment was only... more

This is the 7th time I have returned to the Shakespeare. The staff are so friendly and helpful I actually got engaged to one of them! The owners have updated a great deal over the past year and the hotel now has a games room and basic fitness room. It is popular with the locals too which counts for alot.... more

we arrived and was given room 20 looked o.k if not a little tired, unpacked and went out for the day, arrived later and had a meal, returning to the room later that evening we noticed a wide gap in the fitting of the door, we had to cover the door with a blanket to stop the light coming through... more
