The Dolphin Hotel

Awful room, definitely not what I paid for, was definitely not deluxe, bed was awful, felt the springs, absolutely disgusting

Amazing rooms.. me and my partner were fortunate to get the room with a jacuzzi bath which made the weekend we stayed super romantic. Close to seafront which was great for evening strolls.

We stayed for the weekend and overall the hotel is good. You get what you pay for. The room was nice and the bed was really comfy. To me what put it down was the lack of parking (no carpark just street parking which is a nightmare right on the seafront) and the hostel vibe me and my partner got (lots of noise and banging and interesting looking people coming in and out the hotel.) On the last night of our stay we decided to eat in the restaurant downstairs. Although the restaurant needs upgrading, the food was actually really nice (I had the lamb shank and my partner the spagbol) and the food was nicely priced, but the walls do need to be checked before opening to the guests as I had a bogey staring right at me which was slightly unpleasant when trying to enjoy my food. The staff were really nice and helpful, brought up anything we asked for. My partner and I would happily stay here again but if we’re being totally honest we wouldn’t stay here with the children, primarily because of the sort of people that are staying in the neighbouring rooms. We did have a really nice stay here though.

Formerly called Comfort Hotel & now called The Dolphin Hotel disgusting hotel Trip with Shearings Coaches First impression I got when I went in garden 3 bags of Dog poo left on patio. Carpet dirty and stained in my room.Very bad paint work on skirting boards. Lamp shade base torn, corner of bath rotted wood at corner. Food disgusting wouldn’t give it to a dog.Chips cremated looked as if they was cooked 10 times over. Soup thick and had to wait for bread roll to come after 10 mins.Untrained very young waitresses.Ordered Fishcake chips and peas,came with broccoli and carrots which I don’t eat,told they was no peas,sent it back where they just scraped broccoli and carrots off and returned it to me. Ploughman’s lunch for main disgusting and had to ask for bread again Hotel flooded second night by rain,restaurant got flooded. Stay here at your own risk but don’t say you haven’t been warned. They need to pay you to stay here.

No heating on in November. Cold rooms windows streaming in condensation. Complaints from all guests so given small heaters which overloaded the electric and kept tripping out so sockets didn't work.only two sockets in room. Rusty soap dish in bathroom looked more like an ashtray. Run down hotel needs updating. Breakfast okish only one toaster working but took ages to toast anaemic sausages didn't look cooked.

I can’t believe the negative reviews about this place .I compare my luck on finding this hotel to a lottery win .Not the jackpot , maybe 5 numbers and the bonus ball on a double roll over week.On approach to the entrance of the hotel /establishment, I was greeted by a red carpet .I quite literally felt like a film star.Well folks , Hollywood didn’t end there ! We only booked a slandered room but sweeet mama what a room , sea view , kettle , a lamp , a TV , soap , toilet roll , towels …..intact far too many luxury items to list .I opted for the cooked breakfast …..two words …Jamie and Oliver . A stones throw to the beach (and I throw like a girl) this gem is right in the heart of ‘Yarm Vegas’ as I call it it.Thank you to the staff and also Bob and Winston who fixed the lamp bulbs for us .See you again soon x
