Comfortable and well furnished rooms

positive:
Conveniently located near attractions
Although you should reasonably expect to have to tackle a few hills in Ilfracombe, you won't have to wander too far to visit some of the area's attractions. The harbour and beach, along with shops and restaurants, are all nearby.
positive:
Delicious breakfast
Guests are appreciative of the choice available on the hotel's breakfast menu but are even more impressed by the quality of the meal. Comments that describe breakfast as delicious crop up fairly regularly.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Limited parking available
The only shortcoming that crops up frequently is the limited parking available at the hotel. You may end up having to find a spot elsewhere, although few guests had any major problems finding somewhere.
negative:
Small bathrooms
Guests rate the bedrooms highly but some do mention that they found the en-suite bathroom a little cramped. On the plus side, guests also found the bathrooms were clean and well stocked, and you won't have to worry about using shared bathrooms.
negative:
Infrequent comments
Guests tend to rate this hotel highly and any issues beyond parking and small bathrooms appear to be few. A handful of reviews highlight infrequent concerns such as some minor traffic noise and the bar in the hotel found to be closed but everything aside that seems good.
