Location is excellent with fantastic views. Breakfast exeded my expectations for the very reasonable price of the overnight stay. The receptionist was really nice and friendly, good welcome and helpful. Would definitely book again if in the area and would recommend, don't be put off by the ultra low price. The location is amazing.

The Clifton offered exceptional value for money. It does have some shortcomings but for value it must be hard to beat. Right from our arrival the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, the chap serving the very good breakfast was amazing. Location was good as were the views from our seafront facing room.

The Clifton charges budget prices so expectations should be in line with this. The stairs to our second floor room were steep and the walls allowed some noise from nearby noisy neighbours but the room was large and comfortable with tea and coffee making facilities and toiletries in the shower room. It was fine.

Great location, right on the seafront, with the bonus of free street parking on the road outside of the hotel. About a 10-15 minute stroll along the front to the town centre. We had a seaview room, which was lovely. Furnishings and facilities were typical of a seaside property of this age, with a few quirky features and the usual lack of conveniently placed plug sockets in old properties, but the bed was comfortable and the room was clean. The stairs to the 3rd floor, where our room was, are a bit uneven, but all in all, the room was really good value for the money we paid, especially with it having free parking and a cooked buffet style breakfast included. All the staff members we encountered were lovely, friendly and helpful. All in all, it was ideal for our overnight stay, en route to the Lake District.

Nothing really, it was actually much nicer than I'd expected for the price! Maybe having to boil the kettle on the floor, due to the lack of plug sockets, if I'm being really picky, but it's certainly not the first B&B I've had to do that in!

An amazing location, free, on street parking, a warm welcome from Adele. We chose a sea view room and so glad we did as the view across the bay towards Cumbria rivals any international resort views. Don’t worry if you don’t have a sea view as there’s an extensive seating area at the front with the same amazing views. Treat yourself to a drink and sit outside watching the sunset. The door is locked at night but there’s no curfew and you’re given an external door key for access. There’s a hotel bar, we didn’t use it but the breakfast is well worth staying for and again the guy hosting (I am sorry but didn’t get his name) is very likeable and nothing is too much trouble. I recommend it and wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again for my future visit. Well done to everyone concerned.

I can’t say anything negative. The staff, view, room, food, location and view made for a pleasant stay. We slept very well.

We recently booked two double rooms for a couple of nights to visit family living nearby. The Clifton is a lovely clean hotel with very comfortable beds, the staff are friendly and Amir who was running the breakfast room was fantastic - nothing too much trouble and the second morning he’d remembered that my little girl has food allergies so had breakfast ready for us when we got there! The cooked breakfast was spot on, and there were plenty of options of cereal toast croissants fruit yoghurts - well worth their reasonable rates. Will definitely use the Clifton again for our next visit - thank you guys!

The reception staff on arrival were very friendly. The room was single and had plenty of room. The mattress was new and the room immaculately clean. A small airfresher just inside the door made walking into the room a welcoming smell. The breakfast the following morning was excellent and service good.

Unfortunately there was scaffolding outside the building so not a very welcoming sight on arrival and cut down the natural light in the room. The corridor areas on the way to the room are dated and not very bright, so I was a bit apprehensive on the way to my room, no need to have been as room was fab.

Stayed here before years ago so was nice to see it still as a hotel . Excellent lococation for my needs within walking distance to town the beach is right opposite parking is free along the promenade i really just needed a bed hot shower for the the 2 nights i stayed as visiting family. The breakfast was wonderful 10/10. Comfortable bed, staff wonderful really welcoming wish i stayed a bit longer to be honest the place is being renovated but certainly doesnt affect the stay but once you see through this its a very affordable hotel on the promenade definitely stay again

If you want 5 star then pay for a 5 star. Otherwise Its an honest hotel clean affordable n comfortable

The hotel itself was a little dated, the room was on top floor with no lift, the room was very hot and there was only a small part of the window that opened a little bit, I asked if they have a small fan but they didn't, the single bed was a little uncomfortable and made squeaky noise everytime I moved, the shower was also an issue as the water temperature was fluctuating and it took longer to settle, however staff were excellent and couldn't do enough for me, especially the kitchen staff during the morning breakfast.

There was a clean room, clean, cosy towels, a shower, with private bathroom, free WiFi, TV, a cosy bed and a very good breakfast. It was a great place to chill after a long journey and lack of sleep the night before. There was also an award winning Indian restaurant just next door. For budget accommodation it was great. I got it with a cheap rail fare with Booking.com. It was also quiet.

If you want frills, then you will have to pay a higher price. There was only coffee I the room for refreshments but it was enough. They are renovating the place and decorators were in when I arrived warning of wet paint and where not to touch.

We liked all of it, the location, the friendly smiling welcoming receptionist, the breakfast, the price. Only possible deal breaker was parking availability, but we were lucky and managed to grab free parking space not far from hotel. Would gladly stay again. Just forworning, it's an old style english house with narrow front facing the street, with narrow corridor, and smallish room and bathroom, it has its sounds when you walk around, but it's its charm, it feels like visiting an old relatives or old family friends... some may not like it, we didn't mind, it felt welcoming.
