Pleasant small hotel in great location
Pros:

Lovely location, close to seafront and all amenities, yet tucked away in a quiet corner. Staff were all very polite and professional. Breakfast was outstanding - a wonderful array of dishes. The home-made fruit compote and kedgeree were both delicious. Walk-in shower was lovely. Room was very clean.

Cons:

My single room was small and quite cramped, with no room to put my small suitcase out of the way. The room was also extremely hot. There was a small fan provided but it was very ineffectual. The heat was quite stifling and made it difficult to enjoy the room.

Pros:

Great position for exploring Sidmouth , only a short stroll into the town and to the beach . Staff were courteous and helpful. We had a lovely room overlooking the gardens , well appointed and comfortable bed . Very good breakfast choice .

Cons:

Slight noise from creaking floors above us from other guests moving around but an old building so to be expected. Did not spoil a great stay .

Great place to stay in Sidmouth
Pros:

Our room was spotless with a very comfortable super king bed. Easy walk into town. Good breakfast and excellent evening meals, well worth booking in to eat. Perfectly cooked pre-ordered meals with fresh vegetables. All staff were so friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend.

Cons:

There’s nothing not to like really. It’s a little old fashioned in places and I’m not sure whether there were any facilities (like getting a drink or sandwich) available during the daytime. It’s more like an upmarket B&B than a hotel in the conventional sense.
