Unfortunately we were told the chef was on holiday so we couldn’t eat at the Schooner. It would have been nice to know that information so we could make alternative arrangement and not be disappointed when we got there and be inconvenienced by having to go back out. Also there was no hot water and none of us particularly wanted a cold shower

After confusion regarding breakfast due to the Expedia booking system, the staff were rude, dismissive and said it was our fault for not using another well known webiste !! When we checked in, there was no mention that breakfast was not included, and even when we added a third room on the day, not once was breakfast mentioned or offered as an extra. When we pointed this out after the confusion, the staff suggested it was our fault for not asking for breakfast. It was not their policy to ask if a guest might want it. They then stated you can only book breakfast via the aforementioned website!! The rooms were very outdated and a little scruffy, but this wasn't the problem. It was the lack of customer service to come to a resolution regarding breakfast there was not even the change to pay for hreakfast on the day. Any notion of breakfast was refused as it was not booked via the previously mentioned website. I would avoid this hotel as i feel any issue or problem would be dismissed and handled very rudely.

We booked in at the bar ran by 1 man who gave us our keys. The bar area was absolutely freezing I think it was warmer outside. Decided to have a beer after 2 hour journey they had no draught beer no coffee or tea the only drink they had was a small variety of bottled beers. Went to drop our bags in room at least there was a small heater in the room but bathroom freezing and no hot water. Went out in a taxi to Warkworth for the night. The next morning we went down at 9 for breakfast there was no sign of anyone in the hotel so left keys on bar and walked out. I would urge you to remove this so called hotel from your website as it is not fit for purpose. They should refund us our money back for the lack of everything at this hotel disgraceful.

Plain but comfortable room. Bar and restaurant areas exceptoinally and clean and well organised and a credit to the staff; who were welcoming, friendly and always willing to go the extra mile. Food was beyond expectation; this is great place to eat; and takeaways seem to be very popular.

Room ok but hotel has skeleton staff

Arrived late and no one was there to let me in, despite me calling. Hotel did say it was 11pm final check in so I suppose they did warn me. But I had to sleep on the beach until the hotel phoned me back at 3am.

I don't understand why the previous reviews were so negative. I've stayed in various hotels all over the world and this one was perfectly fine. Room was clean, bed comfy, bathroom clean and power shower worked great. Manager didn't speak great English, but once we got chatting, he turned out to be a really nice guy.
