OK the Viking Hotel is not the plushest of hotels but our room was clean and comfortable with everything one needed plus we had a seaview. All the bars were clean, comfortable and the bar service excellent. The same for the restaurant. We paid £201 each for a two night stay but that rate was fully inclusive of breakfast and dinner and a Saturday lunch plus free drinks (except for some more premium brands) and the food was excellent. Breakfast was buffet style but very well done and deserts at dinner were to die for. We will never forget the Black Forest Gateau and sticky toffee pudding! There is a good sized car park and of course the evening entertainment (2 comics and a singer on our stay each night and also free) was very enjoyable. Only one downside. The hotel is two buildings joined together, both halves have lifts which don't serve all floors and finding them is a problem. More help from the reception team in this respect would be helpful otherwise that team were pleasant an helpful. We will be returning.
