Very nice room. Pretty good breakfast. Very helpful staff. The room window (and nets) could have been a bit cleaner - to take real advantage of the seaview! ... But very good overall.

We stayed in the small double as we knew we’d be early evening arrival. Reception staff were very cheerful, helpful and explained breakfast time. If you’d rather have your car in their car park definitely phone and do that as on street parking is good if you can get space. Breakfast is buffet style and is very good with continental and full English available. We will stay here again.

One night stay for a visit to Open Air Theatre. The Clifton was well located and although we couldn't get a space in the car park we were given a on street permit to use. Room was a small double, was ok for our needs.

We stayed a few years ago and it has massively improved since then. We tried to ring to book a parking space but struggled to get an answer however there was space when we arrived. It is in a great location. We will definitely go back.

Stayed for 1 night & pre-booked a car parking space (£8) prior to arriving as parking spaces at the hotel are limited. Location was perfect. Staff were really helpful & friendly. Sea view room was spacious & very clean (although the outside of the windows could have been cleaner as they hampered a great view). The bathroom had a lovely walk-in shower. Breakfast was very good with plenty of choice. Our evening meal had to be taken in the bar area rather than the restaurant which was not ideal as the tables were quite low. However we had a pleasant stay and would not hesitate to return.

We had a very small room but it had a sea view and we were only using it for after a concert at the open air theatre. It’s brilliantly located for that. The staff were friendly and efficient. I’d stay in this hotel again.

We had a twin room with sea view. Room was basic but spotlees. No air conditioning but there were 2 fans but this might be an issue on very hot days and nights. Staff were friendly and helpful. We didn’t use the restaurant but the bar was nice enough and spacious. Very convenient for going to a gig at the Open Air Theatre. We would stay again

This hotel needs investment. It is old and tired. The position on the cliff top is amazing with amazing views. The reception staff were friendly and quite efficient. The bedroom was small and old fashioned although clean and the beds were comfortable. We had been to the open air theatre for the evening so this hotel was ideally placed to return to after the concert.
