Ryan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Solo trip post hiking the Seven Sister's Cliffs. A beautiful and calm place to go to after a challenging hike. My room had a gorgeous view of the English Channel and the entire room and bathroom felt like you were staying in a top spa accommodation. Breakfast was of an array of nice choices. I will come again with my family!

Great seaview

I’d definitely return here. I had a great seaview and the room was newly decorated and clean. Small room but very comfortable.

8/10 Very good

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.

Will definitely return

Last minute booking - wonderful room with 2 double beds and fantastic view over Marine parade and cliffs. Comfortable beds. Excellent hot shower. Fluffy towels. Good selection for breakfast and good value for money. Staff very friendly personable and welcoming. Excellent night's sleep. A lovely all rounder.

Brilliant property with comfortable rooms and good breakfast.
Constantine, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

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.

10/10 Exceptional

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.

4/10 Fair

A boarding house pretending to be a hotel

Had dropped our bags off earlier in the day, got back to hotel at 10pm, night porter wanted to go eventhough the details say it is manned until 10:30. Porter offered no help with our bags, 2 women up stairs. While sections of the hotel have been updated the reception has the most terrible threadbare carpet. Breakfast is basic served by people who only come in for that. So the hotel is unmanned during the night.
