This was genuinely a wonderful and most special place.
The Rocksalt Rooms are in a separate building to the Restaurant - but you check in at the latter and walk you over. Note all the streets here are cobbled, which can be slippery when wet.
They are a real BoltHole as they are described, and there are only four total. 2 on 1st floor, 2 on 2nd floor, with one per floor harbour facing. I'd definitely suggest that the upgrade is worth it.
The rooms are compact but exceptionally well presented. I've odd little niggles, theres no bedside of any kind - floating shelf would work, where do you put your mobile? And the metal bed frame is ornate and was loose on the footboard.
The biggest challenge is where to put things. There are a few hangers on the back of the door and a small set of hooks, but not a drawer or proper place at all. I get space is a real premium here - bedside with 2 drawers all you need!
The wet room is compact as everyone says. You won't keep the floor area outside the shower dry, it's not possible. The sink is a corner one with no space to place things but there is shelf in the bathroom for all your luxuries. The body wash / conditioner / hand soap / hand moisturiser are great quality.
Noise - it's by the Harbour so they start early, but for us it was part of the charm of the location, the fresh fish smell was totally incredible.
Breakfast is not to be missed, across in the restaurant with the best view, it's harbour side. Loved the granola, yoghurt, compote starter. I had English Breakfast as I was hungry, it was great quality but disappoining - it was more style over substance. The bacon is cooked to crispy, not my style at all but great quality. He had the Salmon & Eggs and it won hands down. Local, fresh, decent portion, on wonderful Sourdough. Luckily I was saved a bite.
A point or two more - the bedside light fused the circuit and the room was plunged into darkness. Looked for fuse box, could not find. Ended up in Restsurant. They had to get keys to a location they used to own but don't now (ground floor of the Rooms building). This took a while as the keys had to be obtained. I get how this used to work, but not now - the fuse box needs moving. The if we cant fix option was check out and refund - erm no!!
There is the most incredible Team member behind the Bar/ Restaurant from Bulgaria whose name I have really tsckily forgotten. For which I apologise.
She is truly wonderful and made the visit for me, id return solely to see her again!!!
Overall we loved Rocksalt Rooms and would return, to have dinner in the restaurant too!
Thumbs up from us, thang you so kindly 💕

The location is good. It's on the beach. You can hear the sound of seagulls in the morning. It's relatively quiet. It's OK. It's OK. It's OK. It's OK.

Great location, attached to fab restaurant so breakfast was delish but best of all I left my jacket in the room and Leon the manager called not long after we left and arranged postage. We left Saturday I had my jacket back Tuesday. A1 service.

Small room but extremely high quality for the price. Very comfortable bed! Luxurious wet room. Could not fault this Hotel. There’s also an amazing (award winning) fish and chip shop a 30 second walk away! Can’t be bad!

Always a great stay here. Very convenient, situated very central to everything. Christmas market about 5 minute walk with lots of stalls.

Hi, we had trouble finding the premises because the introduction video did not work on iPhone somehow. It took about an hr to get someone over to show us. Otherwise, great spot, rooms are very small but functional and everything is brand new. Enjoyed our stay but it would be better if the hotel tells you that no one is available on the premises on Monday and Tuesdays

Veldig hyggelig sted med super belligenhet. Super frokost.
Rommet var fint og nyoppusset, litt lite bad på vårt familierom, men pluss for at de hadde familierom.
Spiste middag der også, den var glimrende
