Fantastic location. Very faded grandeur with fairly basic accommodation but this is reflected in the price so is good value for the price.

Had problems booking in to hotel, I paid al monies but it didn’t register with the hotel that I had booked, there were no rooms available so according to them there was no booking, so I had to prove that I booked with my bank statement, after about 2 hours of trying to sort out they eventually got me a room, the excuse was that they had lost the link with yourselves.

Carolyn

Firstly to say that the reception staff were helpful and friendly. The bed was very comfortable. The corridors and room were grim. No bedside lights, peeling window frames, cheap unmatched curtains, bathroom with unpleasant odour. The hotel was very depressing and dismal. There was no bar or restaurant and bacon was not allowed to be served owing to the owner’s religious beliefs. I did not have breakfast as I wanted to leave as quickly as possible. I checked out early so stayed for one instead of two nights.

I had taken two rooms. Pros: The location of the hotel is very good. It is in the centre of Lynton Town. Con: 1) Dirty carpet in rooms. 2) Only breakfast available that also on pre-order basis (an evening before). 3) No free parking at the premises. The nearest council parking charged £15 for 4 days. 4) The backyard of the property is closed and is poorly maintained by look. 5) No facility like vending machine etc for buying water, etc in night if needed. 6) No room service or garbage collection. 7) No replenishment of tea/coffee sachets. 8) No fan or heater in 1 room.

Property was great because we had a dog and the hotel accommodated this very well. One downside is that there is no parking at the hotel so you will need to factor this into your costs plus the hotel only did breakfast and had no bar.

Past it's prime, avoid breakfast
The hotel is definitely past its prime and much of what was once a beautiful hotel has been covered up or blocked off. The views are truly wonderful, and the rooms are ok. However, I can't remember when I had a worse breakfast, at any price. The eggs were actually grey in bits, smelled and were inedible.
