The original room we were allocated was a bit small so we changed to the family room. At an off peak price it was good value and I would summarise it as a cheap and cheerful hotel. The staff were all very friendly. The breakfast at £6.95 per person was enjoyable. I would return but only at off peak prices.

Traveling as a single person I felt very safe, I loved the single room that was comfortable, had everything you could possibly need.Lorraine who helped with the breakfast was absolutely wonderful, she is an asset to the Hotel.I would recommend the Halycon to anyone looking to stay in the area.I would live a return visit. The owner was very accommodating with a late check in. Loved the whole experience.

Perfect

We had a wonderful stay. The staff made sure that we felt like home. Especially big thanks to Sue for all the tips for must see must do and must eat’s. The room was perfect ( we booked extra nights). Good breakfast served with a friendly smile every day a treat.

The room was lovely, nicely decorated and clean. Everything looked new so I think the rooms have been very recently decorated. Staff member who checked us in and showed us to our room was friendly and helpful.

Pros: room looked nice and modern, everything was tidy and clean and cleaning service was great.the windows were nice and big and the view vas nice as well Cons: the mattress in room 8 was terible, it needs replacing as could feel every spring and when siting down you just sink through it. The room was cold in the morning and there was a weird smell in the hallway when you reach around second floor.

Lovely decor in room great sea view very convenient for seafront and main amenities. Bell to call for help at reception was not available as was charging. Suggest having a spare or ordinary bell availble as it was hard to raise someone

Bargain hotel with some downsides

This hotel is in a pretty quiet and in a convenient location. The rooms are clean. The downsides are that the rooms are VERY small. We had no room to do anything but get into bed and there was only one nightstand. The bathrooms are in need of some rehab. The shower had a curtain with pink mold and the door had exposed wood on the bottom where it had gotten wet too many times. If you’re picky, this is probably not the place for you.
