Gorgeous views. Beautiful hotel. Fabulous breakfast included with room in restaurant below. Only thing that might make this difficult for some people, there aren't elevators.

Food was excellent. Friendly staff and clean rooms. 24hr access was very helpful. Finding parking nearby on a busy weekend can be challenging
1-night trip

10/10

The Glengower is excellently situated, right on the promenade/beach. It offered a full hot breakfast and the pub itself offers a large and sophisticated menu. Everything we tried over the 3 days we were there was excellent. The parking may be a bit if a problem as the promenade road is very narrow but we found a good spot in the end. The room we had was comfortable tho a little tight.. the staff and service was excellent. We unfortunately did not have a sea view, but I will definitely suggest getting one as the view is excellent.
