Filthy and disgusting
Abysmal. Should be demolished. The paint and finish to the rooms is flaking and crumbling. The carpets are filthy and disgusting. We booked a Seaview room but there is no view. Honestly should be shut down and refurbished. How they can charge the rates they do is beyond me. NO AIRCONDITIONING! And it’s summer…

Lovely old building, seafront doesn't mean seaview
Gorgeous old heritage building in a convenient location to the tourist attractions in the old part of town. Spacious room with big window and lovely antique furniture (although mattress was saggy and lumpy).Was disappointed as we had booked and paid for a seafront room but our view was of a building across the street - felt deceptive. It was possible to leave our room, cross a public corridor and go to a roped off area of the balcony (that was accessible to everyone) for a seaview. Bistro downstairs was good with a nice bar made from an old wooden boat. Decent value for money but don't bother paying more for a seafront room.

Staff helpful, friendly and professional. Room was great, and while bathroom was separate to room, it was private and full size bath. Able to soak all cares away.

Absolutely loved The Anchorage! It’s a beautiful “old style” pub filled with original features & a warm ambience! The people are so friendly & welcoming. The location is central so easy to walk around. The rooms are clean & bed very comfortable. Wish we could have stayed longer!

We only stayed the one night which I’m glad. Room 5 had a private bathroom across the hall with a great shower. The room definitely needs a new mattress as it was quite uncomfortable. We had trouble with the kettle and heating as I assume it was because everything was running off one power board for everything in the room. The room did have balcony access but due to the bad weather didn’t get to use it. I would say it needs a bit of updating in the accommodation area as it is looking quite ‘weathered’ however the restaurant at the rear was outstanding. The food was beautiful as were the hosts and it had been renovated.

Location wise the hotel was great and had a great view across the ocean from your room on the balcony.
The bed was just a normal double bed and was fairly uncomfortable and didn’t leave much space for 2 people.
We had also booked for a spa bath room for our stay but when trying to use it it didn’t seem to work at all.
Overall not amazing but a decent stay even if just for the view.
