Although the building needed some TLC, we couldn’t fault the staff. They were friendly and welcoming and ready to assist. The breakfast was good, plenty of it. The hotel was near all the facilities, so all in all a good couple of days.

The hotel reception staff was not helpful and when I reported the tv wasn't working they told me they couldn't help me they had no one there to fix it. The hotel was a bit run down and the lift was not working. The good things was the food and location but I would not stay there again dew to the staff and condition of the hotel.

First appearance from outside was off putting, poorly maintained, in fact shabby inside & outside. Quiet night’s sleep considering the hotel was full. Didn’t have a sea view which I was expecting as I paid for a superior room. Staff were polite & helpful.

Excellent value for money. The outside of the building needs some TLC, but inside everything is fine. I had a nice room, very clean, with a sea view, even though I had not specifically booked a sea view. Staff were friendly and helpful. I did not use the restaurant, but the bar and bar food were very good.

The Burlington is a fascinating historic building in a beautiful seafront location, and I appreciate the effort involved in maintaining a property of this age. Unfortunately, it appears to be in need of significant refurbishment. The worn, stained carpets made the room feel less clean than it likely was, and there were other signs of deferred maintenance such as peeling paint. We had read previous reviews mentioning bed bugs, so we chose to leave our luggage in the car as a precaution, although we did not experience any issues ourselves. With continued investment and maintenance, I think this hotel could be a wonderful place to stay, and I would certainly consider returning in the future. ⸻
