We were arriving late (post 9pm when the hotel is locked up) and having confirmed this via email and numerous phone calls (mostly unanswered) we were given the key safe code and were told the room key would be on the bar. Arrived at 11.45pm key safe empty! Phoned the number for deliveries (hotel phone not answered) and a man turned up 15 mins later in pyjamas and dressing gown to let us in. Then no room key on bar but eventually accessed the room. The man found the key in the office. Suffice to say not a good start after a 6 hour drive!!

Lovely hotel in this Northumberland beauty spot. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The rooms very comfortable with everything you need provided. Dinner on our first night was wonderful but huge portion sizes, less so on our second sadly with a tasteless curry for my husband but the staff apologies and took this off the bill. Overall, I’d highly recommend this hotel but avoid the curry!

Friendly staff on arrival and room modern and clean, with great shower and nice toiletries. Unfortunately TV would not work on our first day and - even though we reported it - had not been sorted by our second and final day, which was a bit disappointing. Asked about it when we came back in the evening after a meal but lady on duty was - how shall I say - a bit worse for wear and couldn't help. Other than that had lovely cooked breakfasts both days and Alnmouth itself is beautiful. Hopefully we'll be in a room with a working TV next time!

The room i stayed in was huge, with a lovely large bathroom and sofa/tv area. More like a suite than a double room.
There is a very good food menu and the restaurant also offers takeaway. They were completely dog friendly, not just \"dogs allowed\", making sure her every need is met.
They were very trusting with guests, allowing us to walk through the bar area after closing, to enter or exit the property.
Super clean

Having had a few medical issues this year, this was our first break this year and we greatly enjoyed our stay. Whilst there wasn't much of a view from the window, the room was spacious and had a great deal of storage. It is an old building and has the issues you would expect in such circumstances. The food was typical pub food, but there was plenty of it. For our taste, we would have like less emphasis on the cooked aspect of breakfast, but we were certainly in the minority of those staying. If staying in the area again, we woulf be more than happy to book again.

Lovely and comfy spot

Lovely location on main/only street in Alnmouth, near several nice pubs and restaurants- also, above a very nice pub. Bed was comfy and good size for two, decor was lovely and fresh, shower pressure was good, perfect cleanliness. Pub food is amazing and they easily found us a table. You get a key to the front door so if you come back after the pub has closed you let yourself in through the empty bar which was a cool experience. Helpful staff, nice varied breakfast options. Loved it.

Super room and excellent evening meal.
No parking onsite which we did know as we had researched it so we spent a time looking for a space in the village . We entered the hotel at a minute to 5 pm and I immediately tried to order some drinks on Happy Hour menu ( 3-5 pm) as it was my husband’s Birthday and he had driven a long distance. However we were told flatly that it was too late. No apologies or explanations despite the fact that it was before 5 pm when I asked.
Customer service with the staff was much to be desired apart from our waitress for the evening meal who was lovely.
On check out there was no Goodbye or checking if we had enjoyed ourselves!

Alnmouth is a beautiful little village. The msin street is one way so to park on street you will have to follow the one way system.which takes you down to the links, then up past the golf course and around to the main street. We got there at about 2:30pm and drove around to find oarking. After 5 failed attempts, we decided to pop up to Alnwick for a bit and come back.
After our trip up the road, we parked on the links road at the bottom, in designated on road parking bays. There are steps up from this road (near the flats) that lead up to the village store, a few yards away from the Hope & Anchor. So we just left the car parked at the bottom and carried our bags up the stairs.
Check in was quick and courteous, we we were directed upstsirs to our room. It was beautifully decorated and furnished
The bedding was thick and luxurious, as were the towels. The bathroom was large as was the walk in shower. Tea tray had a selction of tea and coffee, with teo types of cookies to choose from. Clean, spacious and airy rooms. No noise or smells from the pub snd restaurant below. Slept soundly, no outside noise at all an we had the window open. Breakfast was a selection of cereals, wheetabix, muesli or rice crispies and a cooked breakfast from a menu that consisted of full english, full english vegi, eggs benedict ir eggs florentine. Breakfast drinks were fruit juices ,tea and coffee. Breakfast also csme with toast as an added extra. Great breakfast, it hit the spot.

Our stay at the Hope& Anchor

Hotel is well located in Alnmouth. The staff are excellent and the evening meal was good. The hotel is dog friendly which I must admit, I didn’t realise at the time of booking. The hallway, stairs and landing carpet was very soiled and badly needs replacing with hardwood flooring. The room we had (curlew) was very small and the bedroom window had obscure glass. Once again the floor was carpeted and needs replacing with hardwood flooring which would help keep the place more manageable with all the dogs being there.
