Medehamstede Hotel

No one or no where did we read about the expensive Ferry.....Cant recommend the Ferry or the hotel

Positives: good value for money location tasty breakfast amazing water pressure room stayed cool during the heatwave had a lovely view from my bedroom window Negatives: uncomfortable squeaky bed dated

The male receptionist was lovely, very kind and friendly. The hotel was very, very disappointing. I have stayed in Youth Hostels that really put the Medehamstede to shame. I absolutely hat writing bad reviews because i always worry about the staff and their jobs. And as I have mentioned the receptionist / concierge was wonderful. Why on earth has the hotel not at least been painted on the outside? Why are there so many crappy fire doors - just paint them white and you will improve the appearance by 100%. There is absolutely no love shown by the owners in this hotel, and it is such a shame as it could be a real gem if it was just given a few days of cosmetic love.

Cannot speak highly enough about this hotel, it may not look as grands as some but that is made up for by the friendly and helpful staff, the quality of the food and the general good feeling you get staying there

just what was required for a couple of nights away

Poor quality of the room, smell not good (old odour)

Nice hotel with friendly staff and good service. Maybe the exterior could do with a lick of paint, but overall I had no problems and would definately recommend.

Have stayed here a few times previously, great Staff, very friendly fairly basic rooms but recently renovated bathrooms. Great value,

It was a comfortable stay however the bed had wheels and it was moving a lot. Thw wifi is terribly slow and weak from the rooms. We stayed for one night, other than, it was a comfortable stay

For somewhere to lay your head and not worry about the state of the room its ideal, the pillows were great. Unfortunately thats the positives. Was greeted by a rude man when checking in as i asked about the parking as there was only a few spaces and was full, instead of apologising and stating its limited he was very rude to me about it which i wasnt expecting and was only asking. So after walking quite some distance with a 5 year old and all our bags after finding a space on the road which i had to move by 10am the next day we arrived to a very dirty room. I made the mistake of moving the bed up against a wall to barrier for my child and there was medication in tablet form and other random stuff under there aswell as about 5 years of dust. The skirtings have never been cleaned and the grout etc was disgusting. The bathroom and decor was extremely run down and only a soap bar for the sink provided no toiletries for a shower so im glad i took my own luckily. There was a tiny window which opened half way and in 30 degree heat in the day and 22 at night it was unbearable. Upon checking out as our room was via the resturant we had to negociate people eating and moving around with all our luggage in tow and via many stairs.

Check in was easy. Man on reception is helpful. There was a singer for entertainment on the night we stayed he was very good.

Car parking is not satisfy

The room was quite small and would be very cramped for two people. Very noisy when people walked past or when the people in the neighbouring room use their bathroom.

Was out doing activities so did not spend to much time there, staff seem friendly enough and the room was okay

Check in was relaxed, cordial, and efficient. The Hotel is well located and close to town and beach. The amenities include entertainment in a spacious bar. Lounges with reading material. Good sized garden. Rooms are functional, with beds being firm, yet comfortable. The restaurant was superb with fast and efficient service catering with a menu that was in keeping with the clientele.

This place is in desperate need of renovation. However it’s adequate if you just need somewhere to crash for a night as I did. I would have rated it a tad higher as given the price you can’t expect too much. However the walls are paper thin, which meant I was kept awake by drunken lads next door, so you’re at the mercy of your neighbours as to whether you get a decent nights sleep.

I had stay the room was very comfortable. I contacted the hotel a few weeks before my stay and requested a room on the ground floor due to injury, there were able to accommodate me.

My room is on the ground floor with garden view and a little bit of sea from the window. (+) No noise in the night, good breakfast and friendly staff, close to the seaside and shops/restaurants, great value for budget travelers (-) No lift to upstairs, no wifi in the room, on-site car parking is limited but plenty spaces on the street - free after 6pm but have to move by 10am

Ideal overnite stay

Our stay was just what we ordered.
