Friendly stay with s sea view

Our stay started off with a bit of a hiccup, with our room not being ready but the staff were very accommodating and we ended up getting an upgrade with a sea view, this made our stay even better. Everyone was friendly and we enjoyed our stay very much.

enjoyable stay

Very good hotel for price would recommend shame about the lack of parking
Barry, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The staff were wonderful - they were so friendly and helpful whenever we needed them (even after we'd checked out!) - they're a real asset to the place!
Katie, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The traditional English breakfast was well worth the wait for being cooked to order, probably the best cooked breakfast I've had in years! And a nice selection of buffet items as well. In October the parking wasn't an issue, but I can imagine its more problematic at busy times of year. The building is nearly 200 years old so I can forgive the creaky floorboards, but the bed we had was also very creaky which was a little annoying. Overall it was excellent value for money and I would stay again.

Another lovely stay here. I can’t fault the hotel at all. Staff are great, clean, comfortable and always a great nights sleep.
Lisa, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was very clean and ready early for check in. The breakfast was good with varied choice. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The position of the hotel was ideal for being central in Exmouth for all amenities.

Value for money - try and book parking in advance!

Staff very friendly and helpful. One member of staff working when I arrived, working reception and the bar! Bar not overly well stocked. Unable to park anywhere near the hotel had a ten min walk from where I parked. Room on the nicer end of basic, but good value for the price. Hotel in general is nice , great location, needs a lick of paint and some new carpets in places. I would stay again 👍
Oliver, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel is in a great location, amazing sea view.it’s an old building with a lot of character.the room itself was comfortable but bathroom very dated and dark Staff very friendly and helpful, dealt with any requests straight away, even though they seemed short staffed. We were on room only basis so can’t comment on food.
Maxene, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

The property was okay, and had only breakfast to offer, the rooms were stuck in a time warp. Very outdated and needed replacing. The cost of the limited parking was overpriced. Parking in the road outside hotel is free.

8/10 Very good

A nice place to stay for a few days. The lack of evening food may be awkward in bad weather. The lack of parking is a problem.

Ideal hotel

Very friendly lady on front desk. Quick check in. £10 to park which we weren’t aware of. Clean spacious rooms, usb sockets & plenty tea & coffee. Walking distance to beach & town centre, park across the road.

4/10 Fair

This is not an hotel. Restaurant has been closed for over three years, therefore it is a large b&b. Only offers breakfast No other food available. Not suitable for anyone with any disability. An open staircase at floor level on ground floor is very dangerous to children or elderly. Only has 7 parking spaces, which must be booked and 'free' parking on road is rarely available. Bar facilities are very limited. Awful place!
