Great value stay in Lynton

Offering excellent value for money this hotel right in the middle of Lynton and perfect for a weekend away. Its Victorian features hark back to it's time as a premium hotel and today it is adequate for a stay in the beautiful part of the country. The bed was comfortable and room and bathroom clean.

Nothing like the photos. Would not stay again.

My fiancee uses a wheelchair and I made sure they were aware of this during the booking process. The disabled access is through a dirty fire escape and takes you in to a disgusting room piled high with black bags of dirty laundry which on one occasion was piled so high we couldnt get through without moving them. Then we find out they had booked us in to a room accessible only by stairs and we had to wait whilst they found us a different room. The room we were given was on the top floor which shouldn't have been an issue as they had a lift. However the lift is in such poor condition that my partner dreaded using it every time. It made very strange sounds and the display inside doesn't work. The room didn't look anything like the pictures online. The paint was chipped and falling off, the ceiling had cracks, the glass bathroom shelf had at some point fallen off in the past and instead of replacing it they just left it on the floor behind the sink. Very poor condition overall. The room was a little chilly so we decided to close the window, only to find it didn't close properly because the framework was broken. The rest of the hotel corridors looked like they hadn't been updated in 50yrs, with similar issues to the room. I made sure to get photo and video evidence of the issues as i was going to discuss them with the receptionist when leaving the hotel however on checkout he didn't even ask if we'd enjoyed our stay so i didnt bother. Deciding to leave this review instead.

Good position but very basic.

Very surprised how basic it was. A real struggle to get luggage from car park (paid extra) into hotel. No back door, had to walk down main road dodging traffic. Rooms not tidied or cleaned during stay, bins not emptied. Nice sea view from room though and a very good position for walking. Just very basic.

Car parking, limited and no space for me! Restricted parking close by. On booking in there was no bar facilities or dining! They do give you clise by resteraunts list. Bed comfortable, basic facilities in the room, good working shower and toilet, clean but in need of decorating and carpets in my single room.

Lovely old Victorian property in a fantastic location. Admittedly condition a little tired but that’s part of its charm. We had a very warm welcome and pleasantly surprised when we had our room upgraded to a sea view free of charge. The room and bed were very clean and comfy and it had a nice view towards lynmouth. Very convenient location for the shops, eateries and walks. Not much in the way of car parking, but found it very easy to park in a pay and display nearby, then get a 4 day voucher for £15. Unfortunately no bar or food in the hotel, but you can get a very nice breakfast in the greenhouse restaurant across the street. Plenty of places nearby to eat and drink. Had a very pleasant long weekend, didn’t need to use the car at all. Great value for money stay.
