“My stay at Pier Hotel was marked by an exceptional level of personal care from the staff, particularly Margaret, who fosters a truly welcoming atmosphere. The commanding views of the beach from the rear, coupled with spacious, immaculately kept rooms, provided a restful base. Dining was a highlight, with generous portions and high standards evident in every meal, from hearty breakfasts to expertly prepared dinners.”
