Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Stay At Hotel Steyne enjoys a fantastic location right on the beach front, offering easy access to both the beach and nearby shops. The spacious apartments, some with multiple bedrooms and bathrooms, feature amenities like a kitchen with a dishwasher and balconies; though some guests have noted that the kitchen equipment is minimal. Guests can enjoy facilities like the guest lounge, on-site restaurants, and a rooftop bar with sea views; however, some have occasionally mentioned noise from the downstairs pub.

the king room was a lovely surprise at the end of the hall it felt private. the space was immaculate a haven of cleanliness. i found the staff checking me in very warm they were always ready to assist.

i found miscommunication a recurring issue and it was hard to reach anyone by phone. the room phone only worked on speaker making conversations less private. the restaurant made errors with my order and it took effort to resolve.

The location was good. i needed a place near the beach. This hotel fit the bill.

The noise was ridiculous. music thumped until 3 am, and earplugs barely helped. parking nearby was expensive. The overall cost of the stay felt too high for what i got.

I found the location fabulous! It is right across from the surf beach and very close to many cafes. Breakfast was included. I received a voucher for one item like eggs benedict or granola. The upstairs guest area proved handy. I used it later to sit and enjoy my bottle of wine.

Unfortunately, the tea and milk were not restocked during the daily housekeeping, a slight inconvenience.
