This hotel is quite old and has supports on some of the outside walls but the room and facilities are really good.
Our room was an older style but with that we had lots more space than in other hotel rooms with a large bathroom and a balcony with a sea view. Everything worked well.
Staff were very helpful and showed us the spa and even came to the outdoor pool to check we found it ok and move a sun bed in to the shade for us.
We chose to eat here even though the menu was very limited to 4/5 choices. I had lasagne and my husband pizza which were both cooked well and reasonably priced. Drinks were also reasonably priced with friendly service.
The spa facilities were great-all clean and working well and plenty of other activities such as putting, croquet, tennis and board games. Only a 5/10 minute walk through the grounds to the beach.
We enjoyed our stay so much that we wished we had booked more nights here.
The hotel was the cheapest we stayed in during our 2 week trip but probably the best overall.

Charming and quaint old-fashioned style about it. Beautifully tended gardens with croquet and other lawn games available. Room very spacious and clean. Staff were helpful and friendly making us feel welcome throughout our stay. Lift to all floors. On first floor (where we stayed) the fire doors were very narrow and stiff so wheelchair access would be difficult but doors to rooms were okay. Heated outdoor pool in a secluded area sheltered from the wind and pleasant to swim in. Easy access to the beach via security gate with 10 minute stroll. Close to many sites of interest and the town centre for eating. Garage with super EV charger less than 1 mile away from the hotel. Full English Breakfast was excellent and is worth booking the night before to keep the cost down. Would be happy to stay here again.

We had an en suite double room with kitchenette which was big and but very dated, booked room only so can’t comment on food. Room was clean and good value, use of pool and leisure facilities were included (unfortunately we didn’t have time to try it). Lovely garden, friendly helpful staff. Would stay again but probably upgrade to a sea view room next time. Great for short no frills stay.

Property is extremely dated and very little investment made. Lift doesn't work, some of the leisure facilities haven't worked for days. Fantastic location and access to the beach through the gardens. The outside pool was freezing when the outside temp was 20+, was defo not heated. The electric shower was disconnected with no warning, the sink was blocked that should of been picked up, the sofa lost a lot of pudding, the phone doesn't work, the fire alarm went off at midnight for 5 sec, windows are dirty. The property feels like it hasn't moved from the 1970s.

If you want no frills with a leisure centre and easy access to the beach, this is an ideal property.

Room was clean, plenty of off street parking as the hotel car park is always full.

Classic old school hotel, presentable but decor from a different era. Very clean. Gardens are stunning. Good location for seafront - about a 5 min walk. Good facilities. Very limited food options, but that might be because we stayed in March. We were very grateful for the room upgrade that we received - they didn't have to do that.

Great location, very friendly, a would stay again.

A great location, with on site parking and lovely gardens. Arrived quite early but were able to check-in. The receptionist was very friendly and informative - a real credit to the hotel.

Pleasantly surprised to be upgraded to an apartment rather than the double room we had booked. The apartment was very spacious, with it's own private balcony. Whilst the furniture & decor was quite dated, it was all in good working order and the room was clean.

Had intended to make use of the hotel facilities but didn't in the end - though they did look very good.

Our trip could have been easily improved

The staff were not very pleasant or friendly- it was like it was all an effort . Until we met the cleaners - they bothered to talk to us and the guy in the swimming pool area was really friendly and seemed to want to work. The shower was broken and the toilet wouldn’t flush in our room. We didn’t have enough towels for our family.

Good cheap hotel

Only stayed for one night but it was just over half the price of the local Premier inn and I was given an apartment not a room, pretty clean with a sea view and plenty to do there although I didn't have time to use any of the amenities. Free parking on site and a decent restaurant, Only thing is it's a pretty old hotel and looking a bit dated and tired but not really an issue. I will try to book this hotel again if I am in the area in the future.

1980s time capsule deco

It is time capsule hotel is great for the enthusiasts of the 1970s and 1980s deco. The hotel establishment needs a proper refurbishment, its \"leisure club\" shower area is full of mould, each hotel corridor has a different type of musty odour. It is all very shame as the location and views are great, the hotel staff trying to their best to accommodate the needs of the mainly senior customers.

Booked this last minute as British weather is very unpredictable. Very pleased to get a genuine sea view room. The location of this hotel is great for the seafront and promenade and the gardens are lovely. The hotel is a little tired and smacks of past grandeur but for the price you can’t complain. The staff are great and the atmosphere very relaxed. The only issue really was the evening dining where there is only an hour and a half for ordering and one guy had to do all the bar and serving. He was very good but a lot of people gave up and went into town when you would have thought the hotel would want the money. The food quality however was great and the breakfasts in particular were splendid. Would definitely come back.

Well it was mixed .
Not a bad room but bit too near main corridors and noisy above in the mornings.
No bedside lamp which seemed odd. Only very bright spotlights. Asked for one and they brought an uplighter but not a lamp in sight! Food unexciting but ok. Menu very samey. They wont let you have a 125 glass of wine ! Only larger ones even if a guest.
Fridge noisy but useful.
Better night porter and more attention to safety of guests, after a drunken fracas during the night near reception, would help!

Recommended

I had an early arrival in Exmouth and they kindly offered to keep my luggage until later that afternoon. The room was comfortable with the things that would usually expect to find, television, kettle etc. The room was clean apart from a few old marks on the carpet. For once I had a shower that was easy and safe to use, my only recommendation would be the availability of a non slip surface for the bath.
There was parking provided but I would recommend care, one vehicle outside the front of the hotel made it impossible to use one entrance due to the short length of the parking space, though there were clear signs on the building warning of the length of the spaces.
I didn’t use the bar or gym and so cannot comment on them.
Generally, not modern or luxurious but I would recommend this hotel to others.

Nice spontaneous break

Booked last minute....we only live an hour away so booked at 12pm was at the hotel before check in, we could park our car in the carpark until we returned later.
We did read reviews and were expecting it to be run down but we were pleasantly surprised. Our room was dated and needed redecorating but we've definitely stayed in worse places for more money.
We used the outdoor pool, which stated it was heated but another swimmer who uses the facilities daily said the heater was broken. It was quite cold so didn't last long we went to the indoor pool which was lovely and warm, the hot tub was lovely. There was a steam room and sauna and massage chair and foot massager. Also a gym.
We would definitely come and stay again, hopefully it stays open.

The hotel has beautiful, well-kept gardens and really good leisure facilities. It also has off-street parking which is a bonus in Exmouth, plus the sea front is within walking distance. However, the property is in need of some TLC - the decor is shabby and outdated. We also had issues with cleanliness and room facilities during our stay.

Hotel

Weather was raining then hailstone's very windy but that didn’t bother us we were there to celebrate a dear friend’s life after he passed away
The hotel could do with some modernisation the staff were great very friendly and helpful it’s nice and quiet where the hotel is and just a stone’s throw from the town

One Night Stay

Although the price paid represents excellent value for money, as i only booked a basic room + en suite for i night, and was surprised to find we had been allocated an entire suite with lounge, kitchen 2 bathrooms balcony and sea view. staff are very friendly and service was great. my only reservation was the suite was very out of date, and appeared not to have been updated since possibly the 80's at best, and many parts of the hotel are in need of updates, renovations etc. apart from that a lovely stay

The bedroom and en suite were appalling with no housekeeping done in the 4 night stay. The hotel is sadly let down by this. Will not be staying again. We travel to Exmouth twice a year and thought this would make a nice change. Worst experience in Exmouth.

Bodily fluids & bugs.

When we unfolded the sofa bed, which our son was going to use to sleep on, there were a number of stains on the mattress. These appeared to be as a result of various types of bodily fluid. The room seemed to have an high number of insects flying about. Also, as soon as the sofa bed was fully unfolded, three beetles emerged from it. Needless to say we were disgusted. We packed our bags, informed the receptionist (who didn’t seem to really care) and we left. This was at approximately 11:00pm and we a 3 hour drive home. It was that disgusting we were still prepared to drive 3 hours home rather than sleep in that room. Easily the worst hotel experience we have ever had.

Staff who cleaned Room 305 on Sunday 27 August 2023 stole my iphone 8 from my bag in the wardrobe.

My husband was in the room on Saturday 26 Aug when they were cleaning the room but we were out on Sunday 27 Aug and that's when they took the iphone from my bag in the wardrobe.

My husband contacted the hotel for them
to say they cannot do anything about the stolen phone and insisting that cleaner did not take my iphone.

This is the first and last time I stayed in a place like this, we usually book in renowned hotels like marriott, hilton but this was a group holiday sp
did not have that option.

Dated hotel, dirty, unprofessional reception staff, arguments between guests, police attended in the early hours in the morning, manager can only apologise but could not stop one of the resident in the apartment to stop behaving in an unreasonable manner disturbing guests.

Worst stay ever and got robbed. Good luck if you are thinking to book into this hotel!!!!!!

It is a wonderfully old-fashioned hotel with a lovely garden and excellent location on the coast. The breakfast room staff knew their job well (better than in many five-star hotels!) and did it with nice attitude. My room has left a conflicting impression: breathtaking views and decent bathroom on one hand and disappointingly dirty floor and some furniture, scuffed wallpaper on the other. I wish the rooms could be upgraded gently, without destroying the charm of the place.

Disappointed stay.

Very tired hotel in need of refurbishment.
Bed quality not up to standard and room cleaner awful.
People partying in room below till 3am and no one stopped them even after we reported it and complained.
Breakfast was ok but little choice, friendly staff.

My room was stuck in the 80's. It was truly awful and my shoes stuck to the carpet. Water didn't quickly drain from the shower or sinks, the sofa was threadbare, the carpets were garish, the kitchenette cupboards didn't fit squarely and I couldn't open the drawers.

I didn't want to touch anything in the kitchen and certainly wouldn't have used the utensils or provisions to prepare anything.

I could also hear someone in a neighbouring room on the phone - I could hear every word they said.
I will not be staying here again.

Highly recommended

This is an excellent hotel. Our room was large, comfortable and clean. The staff were nice and helpful. Dinner was OK, breakfast was great. There is a fitness room and an indoor pool with warm water. The lawns and gardens are beautiful, with palm trees, a putting green and croquet course (equipment provided). I highly recommend this place.

All staff from reception,bar restaurants and domestic staff very polite.
Decoration is dated but didn’t affect our stay. Lovely view over the extensive gardens extending to the sea.
Breakfast self serve ,plenty of choice.
We had a theatre trip just a fifteen minute walk to the theatre and the beach.
The outdoor pool was cool on entry but we soon acclimatised.
We would use this hotel again.

Our stay was excellent. All of the staff are friendly and helpful, nothing is too much trouble. Yes, the hotel is a little dated, but that adds to it's charm. The room was spacious, warm and comfortable. The restaurant served well cooked, hot food at breakfast. We ate in the restaurant one night and again the servand food was excellent.

We waited at the desk to check in for a while despite trying to get the attention of somebody in the office area. A member of staff came in from outside and asked if we were being helped and then checked us in. The heaters/air conditioning unit over the hotel entrance could clearly be heard in our room and kept my partner awake for much of the evening, at least we believe this was the cause. The room was comfortable and the breakfast very nice.
