10/10 Exceptional

Friendly service and we really appreciated the upgrade to the sea view! Great location and convenient for the beach. Some of the decor was a bit dated, but all was spotlessly clean and we felt very welcome.
Zoe, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good value for money Hotel. Bit tired in places but comfortable. Parking limited on site but found it easy to park on street near the hotel. Breakfast was good.

Great sea view room

Public areas were good and clean, room was good too. Staff were friendly and helpful but maybe had too much to do
DAVID, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.

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.
Chris, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Breakfast was good. Room a bit tired, no plug in bath, stain on chair and carpet. Staff were very good.
Sarah, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Parking non- existent requiring us to park a 15 minute walk away. We managed . Staff are brilliant. Very helpful and charming . We had an excellent seaview from our room number 211 which was a highlight and great to wake up to . Overall the stay was fine for just overnight but hotel is looking very tired and in need of some loving care. Breakfast was very good and served with a smile .
Theodorus, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff friendly and helpful. Room had lovely sea views. Bed was comfy. Hotel was clean. Cooked breakfast was fresh and tasty. Would have liked an option of porridge or bananas. Restaurant was bright and clean. Parking was good as nowhere on yhe road available and my husband has mobility issues. A shower rather than one over the bath would have been easier. Instructions for operating the shower would have been useful as the water was very hot and we wasted a lot getting it to the correct temperature.

Parking can be a problem as has limited spaces at Hotel, how ever side street parking wasn’t a problem… All in all a very pleasant stay , would recommend.

The hotel only has a small amount of spaces which have to be reserved in advance. The parking in the street is very difficult

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

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.
PAULINE, 3-night trip

The location was good for my mobility scooter, helpful / friendly staff & we had a courtyard groundfloor room. Twin room was rather small, but adequate. Full English Breakfast was excellent value & not greasy- waitng staff were good. Many thanks for our stay.
