Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Limited parking fills up fast — On-site parking is scarce – guests report having to arrive early to get a spot, and once parked, you risk losing your place if you leave.
- Rooms can feel basic and cold — A few guests found the rooms on the small side, with some describing them as basic or cold. Heating is available, but it may not be enough for everyone.
- Dining scores lower than other categories — The hotel's dining rating is 5.8 (out of 10), the joint-lowest with facilities. While some guests loved the food, one gave breakfast just 5 out of 10.
- Property is showing its age — With an overall rating of 6.1 and a facilities score of 5.8, the President Hotel is a traditional seaside property rather than a modern one. Room décor and amenities are functional but dated.
