Veldig hyggelig personale, nydelig rom, super plassering.

Savnet aircondition siden det ble veldig varmt.

Nice, great location, stunning roof bar, would not stay again due to the cost

7.0

Location was great, rooftop bar excellent. Rooms were cosy and well appointed, the pantry is a great touch.

In terms of the cost per room per night, the hotel lacks finish and quality, 5 star cost, 3-4 star value

Outre son excellent emplacement, cet hôtel propose de belles prestations et un personnel agréable et efficace. Nous avons apprécié le balcon avec vue sur mer et le rooftop.

Pleasant, aesthetic & comfortable but a little disappointing!

Location, the shower/bathroom facilities & the bed! Very comfortable!

Dear GuestHouse No.42 Team, I wanted to share some feedback following our recent stay. My partner and I travel frequently and stay in luxury and boutique hotels across the UK and Europe, so we naturally compare experiences against a fairly broad benchmark. Whilst there were aspects of our stay that we genuinely enjoyed, there were also several areas that left us disappointed. The first was breakfast. As breakfast is advertised until 10:00am, I would expect the same choice and quality to be available throughout the service. Unfortunately, when we arrived later in the breakfast window there were no croissants left and very few continental options remaining. It felt as though breakfast had not been replenished, which is disappointing when guests are actively encouraged to enjoy a later breakfast. If breakfast is offered until 10:00am, there should be sufficient provisions for those choosing to dine closer to that time. Parking was another frustration. There was no clear information provided during the booking process, meaning I had to research parking myself and send a separate email in the hope of securing a space. I also feel that charging £25 per day for parking is rather excessive, particularly when it is not made clear from the outset. Similarly, the £30 charge to extend check-out by just one hour (from 11:00am until 12:00pm) felt disproportionate. In many luxury hotels we have visited, a modest late check-out is offered as a goodwill gesture where occupancy allows, or at the very least at a much more reasonable cost. It gave the impression that additional charges were being applied wherever possible. I was also disappointed with the arrival experience. The only room type available when booking was a standard double room, yet despite arriving at around 1:30pm, we were advised that our room would not be ready until after 3:00pm.

Location, vibe, room all lovely. Pantry is such a nice added extra perk. Rooftop bar is lovely too.

Price varies depending on the night you stay quite dramatically. I felt like the price for Saturday was expensive and would of wanted to have a sea facing room for the price we paid.
