Regular buses into local areas. Extremely helpful staff who were happy to help with anything. We didn’t eat at the hotel but breakfast and evening meals were available with a well stocked bar. The steps to the room were steep but we were informed about them before we arrived and were happy with our choice. Room dated and very small but had a beautiful view and all the usual commodities. Clean and tidy. Unfortunately, the mattress was uncomfortable which meant we didn’t sleep well. ##### Michelle Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### EILEEN May 16, 2025 ##### EILEEN Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura Dec 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Laura Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jackalyn Aug 7, 2023 ##### Jackalyn Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### R Apr 10, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness ##### R Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Phillip Sep 30, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Phillip Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Paul Sep 27, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Paul Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### david Sep 24, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### david Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Sep 23, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very warm welcome, super breakfast, comfy bed and beautiful view ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Sep 17, 2019 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Only here for one night but everything was perfect, stunning views of the English Riviera ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Barry Sep 14, 2019 ##### Barry Stayed 1 night in Sep 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Sep 10, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities I think the word is consistency. Somethings are really good others not so good. If they were to spend money on the not so good the Downs would be Excellent. It was very cluttered. My husband is blind and for a person with no sight it was an assault cause. Stair lift on the stairs. Running machine in the back entrance tables and chairs in every corridor. The bed was 2 3ft beds pushed together which isn’t exactly what was promised we were told a large bed. The sink in our bathroom wasn’t fit for purpose. Too small to wash in more water on the floor than the sink. My husband really enjoyed his Omelette he had for breakfast, but the bacon was smoked and my boiled egg was watery and undercooked. Neither to my taste the bread used for toast was thin tasteless and clearly cheap bread. Personally it needs to be de cluttered, the bacon should be unsmoked as used in every single other hotel I have ever stayed in and offer a good selection of toast for breakfast white bloomer, seeded, granary. All of which aren’t expensive and would leave a much better customer experience in my opinion. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jul 30, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul, Old Harlow Essex Jul 29, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful room with balcony overlooking Babbacombe Bay.

The bad, was told it was a 6' bed it was 5', the room described as compact (we had a phone call before to tell us) it was tiny and no where to sit inside. Breakfast served only between 8.30 and 9.15, we got down at about 8.40 first day and got served at about 9, the second day we were down at 8.35 and got served at 9.10, the lady serving was run off her feet and did apologise for the wait due to a full house. We could hear every sound from adjoining room, which meant they could probably also hear us.The place is very tired, our room (11) really does need a good decoration and was overpriced for what we paid. We were disappointed with the general condition of the hotel I know the hotel has numerous accolades but the above views are honestly held. ##### Gordon Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Dave Jul 19, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Happy Nice little place.
