The Marsham Court Hotel boasts a welcoming and friendly staff, as noted by numerous guest reviews. Though there were some occasional hiccups, the staff made it a point to go above and beyond to ensure guests were comfortable and happy. There were several reports of excellent service with guests praising individual members of the staff by name.

Pool
If you're looking for a hotel with a great pool area, Marsham Court Hotel should definitely be on your list. The hotel features an outdoor heated pool, as well as a separate children's pool. While the pool is sometimes closed, when it's open, it's amazing – clean, warm and a good size. The pool area is spacious with plenty of sun loungers and tables, although during busy periods it can be a bit crowded. However, guests are able to use the pool before and after check-in/out, which is a nice touch. If you're lucky enough to visit during a heatwave, the pool is a must-visit. Staff are helpful and willing to go above and beyond and the hotel's location and sea views add to the overall experience.

Some guests have found the £15 per night parking charge to be unreasonable and feel that it should be included in the price of the stay. Others have had to pay £30 for parking because they did not book directly with the hotel. While the hotel has limited spaces, there are a lot of free car parks in the area. However, some guests have found the car park to be awkwardly designed and too small with limited spaces for larger vehicles. There have also been issues with reserved spaces and no parking available.

Overall, the Marsham Court Hotel is a perfect destination for families looking to get away and make some great memories together.

4 Star
While the Marsham Court Hotel markets itself as a four star hotel, some guests found it to be overpriced and lacking in certain amenities expected at this level. Although the food and general facilities were satisfactory, some felt that the rooms did not meet four star standards due to a lack of complimentary toiletries and other basic offerings. While some guests enjoyed their stay, others felt that the hotel was overrated and not worth the expense.

Accessible
Marsham Court Hotel may not be the best option for guests with mobility problems as some rooms require climbing lots of stairs and don't have direct lift access. The lift available is said to be tiny and difficult to use and the wheelchair/buggy lift at the front entrance is also not easy to operate. However, the hotel does offer accessible facilities for disabled guests, including a sensory room and some guests did not mention any issues with accessibility during their stay. Guests who require a cooler room temperature may want to note that some rooms have no way to turn off the bathroom radiator, which may make them uncomfortably hot.

Outdoor Pool
The Marsham Court Hotel boasts a lovely outdoor pool, which is undoubtedly the biggest asset of the hotel on a sunny day. The pool area is spacious and well-maintained with a great range of seating options, including loungers and chairs/tables. The bar area is also well-equipped with plenty of seating, making it an excellent spot to relax and unwind. The pool itself is heated and provides a refreshing swim. No wonder guests raved about this lovely pool area and enjoyed spending time outdoors by the pool amid the beautiful location of the hotel. Overall, the outdoor pool is a perfect place to relax and soak up the sun while enjoying the lovely surroundings.

Dog Friendly
If you're looking for a dog-friendly hotel, Marsham Court has got you covered! With its welcoming attitude towards dogs, you can rest assured that your furry friend will be well catered for during your stay. Although there were occasional noise disturbances from neighboring dog-friendly rooms, the hotel's pet policy is more than satisfactory. Dogs are allowed in most areas of the hotel with the exception of the dining room and immediate pool area. The hotel also provides a small garden at the rear for dog-walking, complete with plenty of clean bins for disposing of doggy bags. The doggy welcome pack is a nice extra touch and the hotel even provides a menu for your four-legged companion! However, guests report a strong smell of dog waste around the premises. Overall, a great choice for pet-loving travelers.
