A nice hotel, well positioned for walking access to the lower town & harbour area which was great for an daytime or evening stroll & friendly welcoming staff, a clear winner on breakfast, very well cooked, plenty of choice, generous helpings . Overall a clean, tidy hotel, good sized comfortable room, the only let down was the plumbing, struggle to get hot water from taps consistently. Parking a bit limited, but walking around, even out of season, it looked like a problem for residents, never mind visitors.

Liked: Staff & service
The good points are that the rooms were large, bed was comfy, refreshment tray was better stocked than usual, a very good breakfast, friendly and attentive staff and a convenient location right on the front. It was also a low price that would usually reflect excellent value for money. It was also busy for the time of year with a range of different guests. However, the bad points are that the stay was somewhat ruined by the (rightly very loud) fire alarm going off at 1.10am and then again briefly at 1.45am followed by a guest loudly knocking someone's door for ages at 3am. This was raised with staff in the morning who said that the guests had been dealt with overnight, had already been removed & would not be returning. Whilst unreasonable guest conduct is clearly outside the direct responsibility of the hotel and prompt action taken, I do think on reflection that other guests should have been refunded some of their night (with the hotel then reclaiming costs incurred through a civil action against offenders). If you stay at a hotel, you expect a reasonably comfortable night & not to be persistently disturbed in the early hours. My room also smelt of smoke despite the no smoking signs along the corridor, wifi was intermittent and the walls were thin so noise was transferred from around the hotel. All bearable though (especially taking the good points into account) but the disturbed night was not. I don't know if this was just very unlucky but it put me off returning.

This place was exactly where we needed to be, though I hadn’t realised it. Also cheap. Very nice staff, and I really enjoyed walking around the town and coast.

The staff went out their way to help find a suitable room for us as my wife is disabled. Ideal to walk to town and down to the harbour.

Thank you The Dilkhusa Grand Hotel

Staff were friendly and very professional, nothing was too much trouble for them. They also had good knowledge of Ilfracombe and gave good advice on where to go, what to see, and knew what was happening (i.e. where local bands were playing etc) at night time. My room was clean, tidy, warm, with a lovely power shower. If i had to 'nitpick' i am quite a large person, but, my shower was quite small. However, this would not put me off from booking again and recommend to family and friends. Defiantly a value for money hotel.

Great value

We arrived to find a very reasonable car park opposite that cost us £5 for 2 days . Great value. The check in was smooth and the room for what we paid was excellent value. The bar was closed but this trip was off season so quiet. Ilfracombe we love and has a whetherspoons close by.

The room was very cold, no hot water and no customer care. When we survived the night with a little help from the hair dryer to raise the temperature just above freezing, the breakfast was good. There were however many other guests at breakfast who suffered the same problems. We have no intention of ever returning.
