The Beach Hotel

Had a fantastic stay at The Beach Hotel, Minehead. From check in to leaving we had the best experience. Staff warm and welcoming. Rooms clean, spacious and with a great view.(Porlock Bay room)Plenty of choice for beverages in the room and we were given fresh milk during check in which we thought was a lovely touch. Breakfast was flavoursome with juices, teas and coffees on offer with cereal and croissants, jam, honey and marmalade.The cooked breakfast was ordered during check in and again tasty. I had a cheese omelette and my husband the fried English. Location also ideal and travel options on hand if you wanted to travel a little bit further. We’d also like to recommend the cinema in town- well worth a visit. We will recommend the hotel to friends and family and will definitely return. Many thanks to all for making our stay so pleasurable.

Booked and paid for a family room, double bed and sofa bed, turned up to just a double bed, my 18 year old son didn’t want to share a bed hence booking a family room, apparently fully booked so split a double bed into 2 singles. Very disappointed as very small beds.

The rooms were decent, however a few stains on the bedding and curtains and black mold on the window edges. Stains on the carpet too. I stayed in the suite and two others stayed in a 2x single bed room. They said the mattresses were hard to sleep on, not soft at all. Additionally, there was an incident downstairs in the lobby, in which we were sorting through our belongings and amongst them were sanitary towels. The receptionist ran off to go around the bar and were whispering and giggling with the bartender girls while looking at our family. Very immature, and made us feel uncomfortable about something that is entirely normal for women. One of my family members was especially affected because they have autism, and the reaction from the staff made them feel embarrassed and very uncomfortable. That was the only really bad part of the experience. The breakfast is decent, hashbrowns were a bit solid and burnt but other than that very good. There was an older woman, a member of staff who was very lovely and helpful towards the end of our stay however, so thank you very much.

Room was clean and big for family of 4, staff were friendly and breakfast delicious,the only bad thing the view out of the window as we were expecting beach view and got some roof and other houses bag garden view
