General Comments.
Located near beach. Would expect large crowds in summer.
Note: warning at front door could not be placed lower. See picture.

The hotel employed a bouncer who was found guilty of the manslaughter of a patron that had occurred in February, 2005. Justice Layton found that that Ramsgate employee had acted beyond his authority when he held the victim in a headlock until he died from asphyxiation during a brawl at the Ramsgate.
