10/10 Exceptional

This is a grade 2 listed building and is beautiful. Some might say it's a bit outdated, but that's definitely part of its charm. We had a huge room that was very clean and comfortable. The lady on reception was fantastic and helped me up with our luggage while my partner parked the car. There is pre bookable parking at the rear for only £6 a day, and you can park out front to sort out your luggage. The views are spectacular, and the room was lovely and quiet. There's no food available but plenty of places to eat in or take out close by. Reception staff were fantastic and so happy to help. They made us feel like royalty from the moment we booked the hotel. There is a lift if you need it. We plan to stay again as it was perfect and so special.

Lovely hot bath ideal after walking coastal path. In the centre of the town with all amenities, plus coast path and cliff railway. Very good value. Basic but clean and comfortable with everything you need in the room. Excellent service from Rachel at Reception who was friendly and helpful and recommended a brilliant place to eat.
Susan, 2-night trip

Great location

The location of the hotel was perfect for walking to the Valley of the Rocks and the coastal path. We had a room only but that suited us and the service was friendly and helpful.
Anne, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Great location, great staff, property in need of lots of maintenance, lift out of use, kitchen closed so no food, bar shut, building very run down and out dated.

6/10 Good

Great location but needs some TLC

Great location on the hills above Lynmouth, but definitely in need of some TLC. Friendly check-in, but were advised that the kitchen was closed so no breakfast was available. There was a great view from the first floor room, which was in need of redecoration and generally brightening up, with scuffs on the walls and peeling paint in the bathroom (which was bigger than usual and with a decent shower) There were a few parking spaces available behind the hotel (£5 per day)

Top floor, lovely view, nice staff, surprised they dont do breakfast or any food, they have a BAR but no license so they cant serve alcohol, such a shame as its in a perfect place

Old tired Hotel, very surprised that they don't do food, and no license to sell alcohol, friendly lady on reception, bed was comfortable nice shower, lovely view of the sea, just a very tired old hotel
Martin, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel staff are helpful and welcoming. It is well positioned in the centre of Lynton within walking distance of shops, bars and restaurants and beautiful walks. The hotel has a faded glory and is quirky and interesting. We enjoyed our stay and the rooms were warm with comfortable beds.

Friendly helpful staff, wonderful views, buffet style breakfast with lots of choice.

Traditional building with some defects. Elevator, bar & restaurant were not avaible. Windows not allowed to open. Big advantage is low price.

No breakfast or any other food available. Bed was hard. No parking facilities so cost a fortune in the council car park. Hotel looking "tired" and hotel gardens overgrown. Staff however were very friendly.

Lovely overnight stay with fab breakfast. Will be back

Valley of the Rocks

Staff were friendly & helpful, but the room was horrible. Carpet had numerous stains or marks, the bed should have been thrown out as one side sloped away to the edge & it was difficult to stay in the bed. Restaurant was not operating, perhaps due to time of year? Most hotels we have stayed in do offer a breakfast of some sort, nothing at all here. Good location in centre of town.
Rob, 1-night trip

Beautiful spot, highly recommended

Lovely hotel in a stunning position. The room was spotless and large. The staff were super friendly and welcoming. I'm very impressed and highly recommend this place, especially as it is such excellent value for money.
Heidi, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It's not only the property that standout. It is also the staffs that work there that made it perfect. Even if the hotel is 5 stars but the staff are not caring and accommodating, the property wont make it to the top. Ahmed and Abdul are few of the staffs that are very remarkable . They handled every situation very well. I would definitely recommend the property due to its cleanliness, being near to tourist spots and staff's courteousness
Jocelyn, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful walking right from the front door, Valley of the Rocks any of the paths with some amazing views, then a little more walking to “Watersmeet” and beyond.
Maureen, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel fails to advertise the fact that this hotel is run in line with Islamic tenets so no alcohol or pork allowed or available on the premises. I had to seek out dining and breakfast elsewhere. This once glorious building needs a refurb. Very helpful young lady at reception.
Simon, 1-night trip

This hotel was very much ‘me’. I loved its old world charm.

Lovely Lynton

The room and bed was comfortable. The plumbing in ensuite was noisy. A beautiful hotel lacking any facilities apart from room and ensuite Price was reasonable. Staff very nice, courteous and polite.
