A pleasant stay.

Beach View, friendly, helpful staff. Traditional charm
Clare, 1-night trip

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.

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 👍

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

8/10 Very good

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

A bit tatty but staff made up for it

Staff lovely and nice breakfast, although carpets were a bit tatty in places and a clump of hair in shower on arrival and toilet tissue behind toilet.

Really friendly and welcoming staff. Always smiling and checking to see if we needed anything, the hard working staff couldn't do enough for us. Would definitely recommend!

Nice stay but tired hotel

The staff here were fab and so friendly and helpful. The bed was really comfy but the hotel is tired. I imagine being an old building the upkeep must be huge! The bathroom definitely needed an upgrade and the windows need refurb/ replacement. We didn't eat here so I can't comment on the food. Having said this it wouldn't stop me staying here again. The hotel is in a good central location.
Liz, 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

10/10 Exceptional

Our room was quite large, the en-suite was a very good size. Rooms were clean, beds comfortable. Didn’t eat in the hotel, we will definately book again.
Pamela, 1-night trip

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.
Tom, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

I liked the location and room. What I didn't like was the noise of the plumbing system , the full english breakfast was of low quality and the parking situation.
Edward, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

2 night stay

I’ve stayed at this hotel many times. On this occasion my stay was okay. Nice room with sea view. The room was comfortable and clean but there was no hand soap and there was insufficient shower gel (30ml) for one person yet alone two - for 2 nights (the room was booked for two people) - Luckily I had taken my own soap and toiletries. Breakfast was enjoyable and the staff were friendly.
Paul, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place to stay, friendly staff and great place for an escape , will definitely book again when coming back to Exmouth. Car park free outside but to find it could be challenging, or you can pay the hotel to use theirs (booking needed tho) Overall 👍👍😎
Marco, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Not a bad little hotel, but needs some renovation works. Some areas look untidy and need a lick of paint and other areas are in need of some more major works. I was staying in the Courtyard rooms. The corridor and my room smelt of musty damp area and didn't improve one bit. But a great location and friendly staff.

4/10 Fair

Disgusting bathroom

I just wish there was a bit more pride taken in hygiene standards. Ultimately, this comes down to management — if the managers don’t set even the most basic levels, the cleaners will naturally cut corners. The room itself was not clean. The walls had random dents and visible damage, while the shower area was covered in mould and dust had gathered everywhere. A basic bottle of bleach costs less than £1, so there’s really no excuse not to maintain the bathroom properly. On a positive note, the reception staff were very friendly and welcoming.
