Grand hotel (1851) that's faded and needs refurb. Under new management who are bringing the place up. Reception helpful. Room needed a lightbulb changes, and bathroom fittings repaired. No room fridge. WiFi worked. Cocktail bar led by a real enthusiast. Breakfast not so great. Staff helping everyone, and pastries (ordered in I suspect) good. But the cooked breakfast could be better without much extra cost

We stayed for 4 nights and really enjoyed our stay. Although the hotel is quite old we had a lovely bedroom where we could see the sea, very comfortable beds and excellent shower with hot water all the time. All the staff,especially Ben, couldn’t do enough for us - and always with a smile. One of our party is a vegetarian and the chef, Steven, came and spoke to her to see what he could do for her for the evening dinner. We hope to come back.

A fantastic job done on the installation of a quality product by a very professional company. From quote to clearing up, we cannot fault Tim, Andy, Zac and Tom. The service was friendly and courteous and we are thrilled with the end result which has transformed our house. They even removed and refitted blinds where possible, and disposed of them where it wasn’t viable, so they went above and beyond. It’s so refreshing to use a company where everything was carried out perfectly. We cannot praise Swain Bros highly enough and wouldn’t hesitate to use their services again.

Majestic Victorian building right on the sea front and so close to the pier
I would recommend this hotel . We loved it from start to finish it’s been a great staycation ! The receptionist was so friendly and checked us in . We didn’t like our first room but she quickly upgraded us to a delightful sea view room with stunning views ! It was worth paying an extra £25 a night . The breakfast dining room is very grand and there’s a good selection of cereals fruit and cooked food . The waiting staff are very good and attentive . I really liked the blue bar and we had a bar meal whiich was very reasonable and the food was good . Parking is limited but we got street parking outside . The location of the hotel couldn’t be better to get to bars, restaurants shops and amusements . The sightseeing bus is also close by and well worth the trip . The entertainment has been good and the drinks prices are reasonable. Some areas need a face lift and the lift needs upgrade but everything else has been super !

The hotel was lovely, large and spacious with very high ceilings, the location on the seafront opposite the Pier and only minutes walk to the shops, bars, restaurants and theatres was brilliant. Our room was a standard double at the rear of the hotel on the first floor, it was clean, comfortable and large. The ensuite had a small bath with shower over it, the room had a TV, tea and coffee making facilities, a hair dryer and plenty of wardrobe space and drawers. A bonus was a table and 2 chairs so we had a little seating area which was great.
On the downside staff on reception were not overly friendly or welcoming and on arrival were not particularly informative. There was entertainment in the hotel every night of our stay but we were not informed of this on arrival. The hotel has a car park which is great we pre booked our space via Shearings it costs £6 a day, but when we got there it became clear that it was first come first served as no allocated space was given to us, we were lucky to get a space. The restaurant food was good we were on a half board basis, the choices for evening meal were limited but fine. Breakfast was very good buffet style, your choice of cereals, fruit juice, yoghurt , porridge and croissants, as well as the full English, so fried or scrambled eggs, sausages, bacon, hash browns, tinned plum tomatoes and baked beans, brown or white toast and marmalade or jams. No mushrooms but a small gripe.
The restaurant did not have a wine list and bar staff were lovely but had little knowledge of wines, one waitress when asked what a caprese salad was just said 'I dunno I haven't seen it' with out offering to go and find out for us.
The Burlington overall was very good and we enjoyed our stay, if the reception staff could just be a bit warmer in their welcome and bar and restaurant staff be just a little better trained it could be excellent.

The Afton Hotel is rated 2 stars which, whilst it might describe the hotel's need for some upgrading of it's fading decor, completely omits to award stars for the positive attitude's of the hotel staff. All of the staff were absolutely lovely, welcoming and helpful.
The bedrooms are spotless. The food is excellent and the atmosphere is relaxing.
My wife and I loved it and will be returning.

My poor old computer died of old age and I discussed it's replacement with Andrew. Having received the new computer Andrew transferred the programmes and what data he was able, from the corrupted old computer. As usual Andrew did all that he could to get me going again as quickly as possible with his cheeky good humour thrown in for good measure! Thanks, yet again Andrew!

An excellent product and team of workmen. We are extremely pleased with our replacement sash windows and the work was carried out with as little disruption as possible and everything cleared up at the end at the end of the working day.
