Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Viking Hotel is often praised for its excellent value and ideal location, especially for those wanting to be near the South Pier. Guests frequently enjoy the dining experience, highlighting the lovely food in the dining room, which offers sea views, and the varied choices at the breakfast buffet. Many find the entertainment to be a standout feature, with some recommending reserving seats in advance; however, some guests have noted that the rooms could benefit from more plug sockets for charging devices. On-site parking is a bonus for visitors, and the tram stop being almost outside makes getting around easy.

Excellent Hotel Experience

friendly staff great choice

I found the staff very friendly and helpful. Food had great choice at breakfast AND the evening meal. Tables for meals and evening entertainment were pre-bookable for the whole stay. IT was a very convenient perk.

The lift had broken down upon arrival. I was on the fourth floor. Elderly people struggled with the stairs each day. This was UNACCEPTABLE.
