The room was a good size but smelled badly. We opened the windows which did clear it eventually. Found someone else's deodorant on the floor under the desk. The staff are very nice. Car park is free and always had spaces. Great location for the sea front. We had hreakfast off-site so can't comment on that.
Location staff cleanliness breakfast 5 star as always our 3rd time at the Sea Hotel South Shields

Good parking for the area. Reception, restaurant and bar have had a referb but rooms are in need of complete referb. On arrival our bathroom had not been cleaned and in a bit of a state, ( not very happy 🤔) however we went to reception to complain, Stuart the receptionist was first class very polite and apologetic and found us another room. Good breakfast. Again I point out that the rooms are in need of a good overhaul.

Staff were great. Very large rooms but a little tired in terms of decoration and didn’t feel as clean as they could be.
Located at both beaches & a perfect position for eating, drinking & entertainment. Lovely rooms (some slight touchups needed) & fabulous breakfast/evening meal facilities. Friendly & polite staff who are always happy to help.
