A stylish, but very different kind of “hotel” !
This is a very different type of “hotel”, with no staff present on the premises ! I knew this at the time of booking, but it still seems a bit odd as you walk past the empty reception desk and lobby area ! Everything is done remotely by text messages, a phone call and an electronic guide, which is provided after your booking is confirmed. A unique access code is sent to you to allow access to the main property and then in to your room. My room was clean, modern and extremely stylish. Quality fittings and furnishings have been used throughout. The bathroom was spotlessly clean, albeit on the small side. Tea and coffee facilities are provided in the room, along with a TV, hairdryer and a small air con unit. Plenty of pillow and cushion options are provided. My bed was fairly comfortable, but on the firm side. The hotel is close to the train station, and a short stroll from the seafront, so it is convenient for most things. Unfortunately, the adjoining restaurant was closed during my stay (Aug 16th/17th 2023), but unfortunately, this was not mentioned anywhere at the time of booking, or in any of the messages received from the remote hotel management team. Overall, it was a comfortable one night stay, in a different kind of accommodation, but it’s more of a plush rented room rather than a hotel, especially whilst the restaurant is closed for business. I was advised by the Donnini team that this will hopefully re-open again soon under new management.
