Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
West Rocks Hotel enjoys a superb seafront location, as many guests point out, offering lovely sea views, with some rooms even featuring big bay windows. The rooms are generally spacious, with some even large enough to accommodate a sofa, and some guests appreciate the convenience of having a kettle in the room. While a few guests have noted that the hotel appears worn or dated, its location near the pier and Towner art gallery and the availability of on-street parking for £2.20 a day still make it a good choice.

friendly staff breakfast bag dated room rubbish shower
the staff was very friendly and helpful. they provided a breakfast bag with fruit etc. and a discount at the breakfast across the road, very nice.
i was disappointed since the room was quite dated. the shower wasn't great and the curtains didn't cover the windows properly. the key on a massive block of wood was a pain.

the bar wasn't open at all. the pool table needed repair. my room and the shower were very small! the drain couldn't cope with the water volume, so the tray filled up quickly. i had to turn the shower off and wait for it to drain. apply, twice.
