A Month of New Beginnings

Here at The View Hotel, January always brings a quiet sense of excitement. The seafront has that crisp, breezy charm, the lobby feels calm and cosy, and the team is full of ideas for a bright and cheerful 2026.

January doesn’t have to be gloomy. In fact, it’s one of the best months to step back, reset and look forward. Whether it’s couples planning their wedding day, friends catching up over coffee, or guests taking a peaceful break by the water, the hotel has that “new chapter” feeling that only the start of a year can bring.
