I was a little perturbed that there was no onsite parking but the hotel gave me a complimentary carpark ticket for the duration of our stay which was valid for all council carparks in the area and this worked out well.

Thanks for your review. We are sorry you found our local shanty singers "Noisy", they are part of the local community and people travel here just to listen to them on a Thursday evening, apologies if you found that "strange" . Considering it is peak season and there is a countrywide shortage of hospitality staff, our team work very hard. Maybe you just need to relax a little bit on holiday and enjoy the village atmosphere that so many people visit for.

Lovely rooms, limited parking, one horse town
The communal areas suggest it's a bit fusty, but the room we stayed in was lovely (Aviary). Staff were excellent, as was breakfast. We didn't eat in the evening so can't comment. It wasn't so much of a restaurant as a bar with dining (but there's not much choice in Lynmouth, so eating here may be the best option apart from fish and chips from the Esplanade). We were fortunate to arrive out of season because it meant we were able to use allocated parking bays usually reserved for people staying in suites. However, it was the first we knew that parking for other room types was not available, so beware. There's not much in Lynmouth apart from spectacular views, so unless you're on a walking holiday, you might want to stay just the night, as we did.

Great hotel for exploring North Devon
This is a great place to stay if you're considering exploring Exmoor and the North Devon coast. There are numerous walks along the coastal path or inland following the river. Very helpful staff and a very relaxed atmosphere.

Room did seem a little small when we first arrived but was actually fine for our 3 night stay. So nice to have free access to bottles of chilled fresh milk and water for use in the rooms, along with a selection of other room essentials. Loved the unique and slightly bohemian décor throughout the hotel. The staff were friendly, very helpful and did their best to accommodate any requests. The Dinner menu was fine but would benefit from a little more variety in the dishes. Maybe more salad options for the summer months, a risotto dish or Kedgeree which could double up as a breakfast option, Smoked haddock with horseradish sauce and a few leaves as a starter or add some new potatoes and a slightly larger serving for a main course. Charlie Fridays café in Lynton has some interesting dishes. All the food was well cooked, portion sizes were quite substantial and good value for money. Overall a very enjoyable short break, in a lovely location would definitely come back again and would recommend to family and friends.

Lovely place by the sea.
The hotel is very nice, close to the harbour and cery well decorated. Room was clean and tastefully decorated also. Our only issue was that it took 1 hour and 15 mins for our breakfast to be served from ordering. This delayed our day out considerably. We were told that it was down to only having one chef and having over 30 covers to cater for. Saying that the breakfast was very good, freshly cooked and tastes excellent.

The check in was alittle muddled by the male who checked us in. He didnt seem too sure about proceedures & questions we asked. However he very kindly took our case to the 1st floor room we was in. The restaurant has divine food at sensible prices with superb staff particularly Angelica who served us during our stay. If l ran a restaurant l would want someone like her running the front of house. Other staff who also served us were very good too

4 stars box room
The hotel is a 4 stars hotel. We received a tiny box room that you could not move around. It was so small that there is no space for a chair. No facilities to put toothbrushes. We complained and moved to another slightly bigger box room again without facilities in the bathroom. We have never been sleeping in a box room!!! The staff were very nice and professional.

Friendly small hotel
Well maintained hotel in the centre of Lynmouth. Very friendly and helpful staff. We stayed in the Railway Room - comfortable with sea/river view. We booked knowing we would be restricted because of the pandemic and anticipating that this, and the weather, would limit what we could do. The hotel have taken lots of steps to ensure safety advice is met. Enjoyed our stay but a few things to note: * Our room - a double - only had 1 chair. As pubs shut at 10pm and we didn't want to overmix with other people, we spent quite a bit of time in our room. Fine ... except that 2 chairs would have made this more comfortable. * Spacious clean bathroom with lots of hot water and toiletries but why the small bath towels? Big fluffy bath towels are a must for me and are one of my criteria for assessment. * Ate in the Ancient Mariner (next door). Food generally good (if a little overpriced), amazing chips but avoid the veggie burger. Dry and so overcooked I couldn't even cut it! * Heavy duvet made the bed too hot ... lighter duvet and tgrow would have given us more flexibility.

nice break
The stay was lovely but unfortunately the restaurant service was lacking behind the hotel service. Trying to book a table for dinner was extremely difficult with no confirmation received as promised by the young lady following requests at 9am, 11am and 6pm being unsure if the booking was complete leaving us uncertain of dinner. We did receive dinner which was lovely food but in the bar area, this was the only downside to our short stay and will have no bearing on us returning in the future.

Booked for three nights only stayed for two. Room was tatty, furniture falling apart. Bathroom horrible and dirty, no sink just old bath and toilet. Sink in room leaked water all over carpet. Unhelpful staff, when asked if I could move room was told no rooms available and that the room was priced well because of condition, I don't consider £90 a night acceptable for a room in that condition!
Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2020
Response from Cg on Aug 23, 2020
The room is called the 'Austerity Room' as it has yet to be refurbished. We cannot make it any clearer in the name. The sink did not leak, it was overflowed (we had a plumber check this) the furniture is not falling apart the wardrobe door is a little stiff and the bathroom is not dirty the bath is a little stained and it very clearly says in the room information that there is only a bath and no shower. We could not move you because we were fully booked and cannot magic a room out of thin air, although I so wish we could! As soon as you made us aware of the issues we addressed them straight away, even trimming the offending bush from outside of the window for you! £90 a night for two people in this location in the center of the village, in a first floor room in August is a VERY fair price. If you wanted a newly refurbished room then maybe you should have booked one. Regards
