The White Rock Hotel

This hotel is comparable to Fawlty Towers. Upon check in the two ladies were having a heated discussion for at least 5 minutes before they even spoke to us. I was then lead to my room via a lift from the 80s and corridors so narrow that you could not walk down them with your bags. Upon being left in the room I turned on the light only to find that the light switch gave a large electrical shock. While the rooms were ok, the furniture was outdated and worn and the "fire door" did not fit the frame. Leaving a large gap at the bottom allowing light and noise to stream directly into the room. Later, when the rest of the party checked in, they were given keys only to find that people were already occupying those rooms and therefore had walked in on them late at night. I would not recommend this hotel unless you enjoy the constant risk of electric shocks and being walked in on

Stayed here from Essex for one night prior to attending a wedding. Room very clean, tidy and comfortable. Hotel smart casual and relaxed. Dining and bar areas well served. All staff very nice, friendly and helpful. Excellent food /breakfast served and good menu choice. Would definitely recommend and look forward to staying again at some time.

Hotel was very clean and comfortable. Lift was an experience if you and your sister are both on the large size! Bar very nice and reasonably priced. Breakfast was quick and very good. Car park was available but once you park, don't leave again until the end of your stay or you'll never get back in again!
