Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were kept clean and came with an excellent full English breakfast, but the view out back was not too pleasant.
The hotel offers a delightful stay with rooms that are well-kept and clean, featuring a shared toilet with a view of Plymouth Sound just minutes away. The excellent full English breakfast adds to the positive experience, although dining options might have room for improvement. The service provided by the manager and staff is exceptional, showing great efforts to ensure a welcoming and compliant environment with cheerful enthusiasm. The hotel's prime location near restaurants and major attractions is a significant advantage, making it convenient for both leisure and event activities. While the dining experience could be enhanced, the overall value for money is commendable.
The hotel offers rooms with a stunning view of Plymouth Sound just minutes away, along with an excellent full English breakfast. The wooden cupboard adds a charming touch to the room. The location is ideal, close to restaurants, bars, and the ferry terminal. Dining is quick but could improve the presentation of items on cold plates. Overall, a comfortable stay with some minor dining details to consider.
