I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were spotlessly clean and of a high standard, and the location was perfect, just a short distance from the town and harbor. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. The room I stayed in, number 19, offered stunning views of the sea and even had a balcony with three single beds overlooking the sea, making it such a cozy spot.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is just stunning, right on the seafront in Ilfracombe with breathtaking views. The rooms were immaculately clean and the bed was so comfortable for a great night's sleep. The service was top-notch with the staff being incredibly lovely, friendly, and welcoming. However, the noise from the seafront at night was a bit bothersome. The dining experience was delightful, with a lovely balcony view, but the self-serve drinks setup felt a bit chaotic. Overall, a fantastic getaway spot!

I couldn't have asked for a better location, right on the beautiful seafront in Ilfracombe with stunning views. The rooms were basic but had everything I needed, and the balcony overlooking the sea was a lovely touch. The service was pleasant overall, but there were some hiccups like being told there were no Sea View rooms left. The dining experience left much to be desired with limited options and late breakfast timings, but the proximity to shops and walks made up for it.

The hotel offers a good location close to the harbor and town center with a nice sea view. The rooms are economical but could use modernization. The staff are friendly, although a bit disruptive with vacuuming in the afternoon. The dining experience was pleasant, with fresh fish available, but the portions were small. Overall, a convenient stay for exploring the area.

The hotel room wasn't Deluxe, with an old large rug on the floor, a broken TV stand, toilet door, and hot water being hit and miss. Every bed spring in the mattress was felt. However, the shared kitchen area was excellent, even though it was too noisy at night with people coming in and out, waking us up and setting my chihuahua off barking.
