Beautiful hotel. Large room with a comfortable bed. Didn't utilize the restaurant nor the reading areas or snooker room, as we were only there for one night, but they looked intriguing.

I loved the property—next to or a part of the Dornach Golf Club and within walking distance to the beach and sea. The staff were phenomenal—kind, courteous, and professional. I found Bob and the rest of the staff eager and enthusiastic to assist their guests. They made me feel very welcome. I Highly recommend staying at this property

Love old hotels. The restaurant food was fabulous. The breakfast sausage maker should get an OBE. Rooms a bit small, but its an old hotel.
The lobby is spectacular
