Weekend family stay

We always like coming to stay at the Derwent Hotel. The hotel swimming pool is lovely, and so is the evening entertainment. The rooms need upgrading and refurbishing especially carpeted areas in the room and the matresses are definitely very old. Although there are things that can be improved we still had a lovely time and im sure we will be back again!

The property itself was in good shape considering the age food in general was ok ….. as for the mattresses in the rooms it’s like sleeping on a rack from the Middle Ages…. Definitely need new or at least a mattress topper… I’d possibly return if the bedding was changed and was able to get a good deal.

A place to be when you have kids and do not fancy to splash into the cold waters of the Riviera: the swimming pools at TLH are cool! And the one indoor is warm too. Conveniently located near the seafront, and lical gardens and Torre Abbey. Easy distance to churches, shops and restaurants. Food is ok but reasonably priced. Kids go free and we say Thank You. I appreciate the rooms NOT being serviced every day because guests must be responsible of keeping their space tidy anyway. The only 🚫🚫 is the lack of bins to differentiate trash: it's 2025 and a sustainable clean behavior must not go on holiday but be encouraged by adding due bins.

Very noisy, and because my room was near the lift I could hear the lift talking all night! Its an old hotel and has alot of creaky floor boards too. I had to pay for parking which I was not made aware of until after booking, and the cost was £10 per night, which is expensive. Only plus was its near the beach, so easy to walk to.
