Very dated hotel, apparently under new management. No parking, had to pay £30 in the hotel across the road or pay £9 perday NCP a good walk away.
Only saw 1 person all the time i was there. This person had zero personality! No food available at all due to no staff for the kitchen

I stayed in a single sea-view room. The room was nicely decorated and the bed was very comfortable. Good Wi-Fi. Lovely view of the pier and beach. The shower was hot and powerful. Unfortunately, the room and en-suite were not very clean, it was very dusty and there were bits on the carpet. The mug/spoon was still dirty from previous guest. The en-suite really needed a deep clean and the toilet had been left dirty in the bowl although it had a paper slip on the toilet seat to say it had been cleaned.
Parked in the local NCP for £7.95 per 24 hours which was only a 5-min walk to the hotel and straightforward (is cheaper if you download the app before you park). I had received an email from the hotel before my stay with the parking permit instructions (subject to availability) however they do not have permits at all at the moment as they have not been granted by the council yet. Found it a little confusing - the email was not needed as it wouldn't have been an option to have a permit and I wasted half an hour trying to find a space in the permit zone to then be told they did not have any to give out anyway! No restaurant for breakfast but there was a Wetherspoons a short walk away so was not an issue. Understand it has recently been taken over so may explain these few issues.

My experience of my stay at Pier Hotel would be average. I paid £50 per night for three nights. Hotel rooms were average, quite congested to walk.
Firstly, I was annoyed of the services provided. I understand the management was new and they purchased the hotel few days ago, the wifi router in my room wasn’t working. Things were not checked before the arrival of the guest. They did offer me another room on my Day 2 which I denied, because one day stay left only.
Secondly, no room service at all. We left rooms in a good condition, and we expected the basic services to be done when we arrive back to the room. Basic like; emptying the bin, replacing the laundry, providing the with toiletries because they get used every day. We always had to ask for the services, which is quite unusual for the hotels.
Overall, average stay at the hotel.
The best things about the hotel is, it is right in front of the Pier and Seafront. This is the only attractive and positive things about Pier Hotel.

The main area in the room was good; however, the bathroom needs some attention - loose tap, musty smell and rust in places.

Fairly average hotel. Bed was really hard and uncomfortable. Often had no hot water late in the evenings. Needs improvement for sure but was quite a cheap stay.

The property as just been taken over by new owners. The hotel manager is very polite and made you feel welcome. The room we stayed in was clean and adequate for me and my wife. The property has no catering facilities or bar so it is room only which did not bother us as there are plenty of restaurants, cafes and bars around the hotel. All in all a very pleasant stay.

The hotel is in a terrible condition I am surprised Expedia sees it fit for purpose. I have never seen such poor quality service and an hotel in such dire conditions.
Very disappointed with need.

The room did not have 2 double beds as stated. Could not connect to the internet. There were no parking concessions, breakfast or drinks as stated at the time of booking and in an email after booking. Unfriendly owner and offered no apology for any of the things mentioned above.

When we arrived it was locked and didn’t open till 14.00. We checked in only to find it was under new management. There was no Restaurant or Bar, The front desk was only open to check people in. They gave me a fob to open the front door. The room was clean and well fitted, but we felt that it seem more like a Hostel then a Hotel. Not really impressed, and not what was advertised on Expedia. We spoke to another couple who had also booked through who felt the same. Probably won’t book it again.

Property recently under new management. Wifi was being installed. No AC in our unit, just 2 basic fans. On a really hot night. Location was very convenient. Amenities were basic.

The hotel was sold the day before we checked in, but i didn't get any warnings until I was checking in.
The new owners did not know where things were. Internet had been cut. No iron when requested. The chef had been let go, so no breakfast.
Overall terrible experience. Family was scared as we did not see many other people around. The reception was not staffed beyond 10pm and until late mornings. As we arrived later in the evening we couldn't find another hotel, we would have left otherwise.

Excellent location for pier, promenade and town. Great views from our seaview room which was also a good size and quiet with solid walls. Looked to be recently upgraded.
Slightly awkward pedestrian access to hotel as nearest light-controlled crossing is closed but not hotel’s fault!

This is a very convenient hotel for when we go to the tennis tournament at Devonshire Park. The only problem we have with it, is the beds! The mattresses are very soft and not comfortable to sleep on. We did tell the hotel and they found us a room with a firmer mattress but this was still vey soft.

The hotel is in an excellent spot and the staff were brilliant. The web site is a little misleading as the emerald bar is not open and no food available in the evening
Our ‘sea view’ room had limited view.
