We tried to check in at the hotel only to be told they had no booking for us as the room had been cancelled, following a slight debate and showing proof of booking and payment they eventually accepted our booking. However we were down graded to a twin room with 2 single beds. We were very disappointed with the room as the carpets were dirty and stained and the square toilet had a round toilet seat that was badly fitted. We made the most of our stay by spending as little time in the hotel as possible as due to it being bank holiday weekend we were not left with many other options. On a brighter note Breakfast was reasonable and the waiting staff were fantastic.

Central to Ilfracombe
Large hotel doing B&B at a reasonable price. Very central to Ilfracombe with easy walking to Tunnel Beaches and the Harbour. Very few parking facilities but Jubilee Gardens car park is close by - busy in summer. The room, facing the street, was in fact very quiet.

Booked as a last minute stop off, really friendly staff, breakfast was lovely, overall though the hotel is a bit tired but for the price more than acceptable. I would stay again as a single guest

The reception staff were very friendly and helpful. Staff at breakfast not so good. No spoon to stir coffee, no separate knife for butter and as it was our first stay we had to ask what to do.

Clean and friendly
We booked the same day on impulse for 2 nights but ended up staying 3. There is parking at £6 a night but only a few places. There is free on street parking further up the hill if you are fit. We didnt sample the food, but if you want breakfast its cheaper to book in advance. The staff are friendly and helpful and the hotel is in a goid position for the beaches and harbour and tgere is a nice Wetherspoons just down the road

On arrival welcoming instructions were very abrupt, there is actually no parking at the hotel as advertised, all parking is on the street, only free at weekend. Walking upstairs you see worn carpets dirtiness and very old decore, some areas of water damage. In our room one chair was dirty and badly worn, window frame was wrapped and would not close properly. The floors are creaky and you can here them above and outside you room with people moving around. Decor in the room was poor. Bed was comfy, sheets and towels clean and fresh. Breakfast was reasonable.
