Very happy. It did what it said on the tin.
A little old fashioned.... which was right nice!!
Local to The Cliffs for a show. Early check-in was very welcomed alone with parking, so able to go off, have a walk, a drink & enjoy the show.

Perfect location for Cliffs Pavilion
Staff were friendly but hotel was dated and room was very dusty and worn. Bathroom was clean and towels and bedding appeared clean.

Not good at all because they disappointed me for family apartments I booked and gave me other rooms, so my family was not happy so we decided to check out 3night after instead of 7nights.

This is an older property and average condition but very clean. It is 17 minute walk to Southend Central train station. Hotel has a wonderful breakfast in a delightful breakfast room overlooking the garden or street. It is easy walking to the Pier or High Street for shopping or along the ocean promenade.

Lovely stay
Lovely stay; recently refurbished room and sparkling clean en-suite. Made good use of the fan provided, during a warm night.
Only suggestion is to offer fruit, yogurt and perhaps croissants for breakfast as not everyone likes a full English. However, our breakfast was well cooked and delicious.
Had good advice and help with parking, as we arrived, which was much appreciated as parking is tight.

Great host, great evening meal (excellent value). A really nice owner who’s got a great little b&b there. Only one criticism though it maybe just me and my work colleague, the breakfast should be self service, or at least give that option. Highly recommended.
