Breakfast excellent so it was confusing that the lunch menu and food was poor. Hotel looks lovely and staff were great. Small attic room up several flights of stairs and no lift to assist with heavy luggage resulted in sore backs!

Dog friendly beyond belief

What a lovely place to stay at whilst visiting Dartmouth. Convenient for food as well as a local drink. Breakfast was included and the dog was spoiled in the most dog friendly hotel i think we have ever stayed at.

Wonderful Stay, highly recommended

We had a great time in Dartmouth and our stay in this hotel. Our room was a generous size and the staff were superb, very friendly and helpful. The breakfast choice was outstanding and delicious. The hotel is right in the centre which is great for walking around the town, but make sure you arrange parking before you leave as it’s difficult to park close to the hotel

A wonderful find.

We had an amazing stay, the location is perfect, the building has a deep history and unique and authentic style, the room was comfortable, clean and well appointed, the breakfast was freshly cooked with an excellent choice and the staff were friendly, attentive and we're always happy to help. The whole place has a really wonderful feel in all areas. We would happily stay again and would highly recommend it in all areas.

Great for getting to be train and ferry. Ideally located with great views overlooking the harbour. Breakfast was excellent although we didn’t experience other dining options. Staff were very friendly and the property was historical and full of charm. Would thoroughly recommend a stay but as far as we are concerned it would preferably be in an external room.

Ideal location in centre of Dartmouth

This hotel is located in an ideal location in the centre of Dartmouth. The staff were particularly helpful and pleasant. The room was a bit dated and tired but clean, the only window was looking inward over the internal courtyard and it did get a bit stuffy late at night but aircon is available. The breakfast was good and the restaurant has a nice view overlooking the harbour. No parking but the park and ride drops you 100m from the hotel so not a problem.

Nice location, lack of parking.

We had a really nice stay, the breakfast was good and the hotel is nice and quirky. The room didn't look like its had been vacuumed, there was a hare clip in the middle of the floor. The location is perfect for Dartmouth's attractions. Beware that the hotel doesn't have any parking and there are no long stay car parks in Dartmouth.

Nice but ....

Great location, chacterful old building, with excellent service. However, we stayed in a family room which was a bit shabby and needed an update. e.g the toilet roll holder was hanging off the wall, the door lock was temperamental, and the single bed was rickety. We enjoyed our overnight stay but wouldn't have wanted to stay longer.

Weekend away!

We really enjoyed our stay for my partners birthday. Location of the hotel was fantastic and close to local amenities. Staff were friendly, helpful and attentive. The breakfasts were delicious with lots of choice from a full english, eggs benedict, fresh fruit, cereals etc, all good quality. The room was tidy and clean, some areas were worn but that’s expected. We stayed in room 29, only criticism is the room could have been organised differently but other than that it was lovely. We loved the character of the building, and I can imagine in the summer it would be gorgeous. We will definitely come back again!

Great location and convenient. Parking is difficult. Room was clean and tidy. Bed comfortable. No net curtain so either on display or closed blackout curtain. Couldn’t have window open as it was very noisy (boiler, air con or extraction system) and air con was noisy too, so not good for a relaxing lay in! Bathroom needed decent repairs/silicone and some bleach around the taps! Breakfast coffee weak. It wasn’t worth the money.
