Classic seafront hotel dining with friendly service and good-value set menu, but spa/afternoon tea quality and service speed are inconsistent—great location, mixed execution.
The Palace Hotel delivers solid traditional British dining with attractive seafront appeal and warm, friendly staff, but inconsistent food quality—ranging from well-executed dinners to stale sandwiches and overcooked roasts—prevents higher performance. Slow service pacing and recent complaints about spa facilities and meal delays further limit its standing as a destination restaurant, though the good-value set menu and comfortable lounges make it a respectable choice for seaside dining in the area.
One caveat: Service delays at the bar and during lunch; communication lapses on availability
