“Repeat Business!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

This was our second trip to the 'trendy' Waterside and this time around we took advantage of the January offer - fantasic value! As with last time (November 2010) we dined in the restaurant and the food was very good indeed especially with the 50% discount menu which didn't restrict our choice at all and the service was friendly and efficient. We managed to grab a room with a sea view and the aspect and location is quite superb although the shower was lacking in pressure this time around. In the not too distant future I will be celebrating my 50th birthday with my son who will be celebrating his 18th and we would love to treat our close friends and their kids to a weekend at this fabulous hotel. Keep up the winning formula!

Room Tip: Try to book early for a sea view.........it's worth it

“A Great Child Free Night”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 January 2012

We booked to take advantage of the 50% offer during January. I arrived early and made the most of 50% spa treatments, which were great. Unfortunately we couldn't get a sea facing room but had the Venus room which was really nice with lovely views of the downs. Dined in the restaurant where the food was fab (steak and wine special offer a knock out), service a little on the slow side but otherwise faultless.
The only disappointment was going to the Grand for drinks which is very overrated, we shouldn't have bothered to venture out of the Waterside.

Definately planning to visit and even without 50% discount, well worth the money.

“Excellent”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 January 2012

I always stay in this hotel when I'm in the area on business. Fantastic rooms,superb staff. I brought my French and German colleages here ( who are not easily impressed ) who thought it was delightfull.Excellent decor and stylish touches make this " Boutique Hotel " a pleasure to stay in. Well done to the owners for attention to detail in everyway.

“Perfect weekend :)”

Couldn't say one bad thing about my stay at Waterside hotel. The staff were super friendly and really made an effort with everything. The night porter made us cheese toasties at 4am free of charge and received free cocktails at the bar. The rooms are beautifully clean and the breakfasts is also great.
We got the basement Aqua room, where we organised a Bath Butler to have the bath ready for us upon arrival. Lots of bubbles candles flowers and 2 glasses of champers, very romantic, definitely recommend that service.
We went during the January sale 50% off so got a room for two nights two people for £135 absolute bargain....But make sure if you are looking to use the spa that you book in advance as there were not free spots available when we were there.

Anyway top notch i 100% recommend it :)

Room Tip: The aqua room is right bellow the restaurant so can here the footsteps above, i didn't mind, but...
