The hotel is superbly located, just a short walk from the stunning Babbacombe Downs with its breathtaking views and abundance of cafes and restaurants. The rooms are stylishly decorated, spotlessly clean, and come with lovely extra touches like water bottles and biscuits. The dining experience offers a variety of delicious options and the friendly service makes for a comfortable stay. However, it would be even more perfect with a few more choices for breakfast.

The hotel was spotlessly clean and modern with lots of little touches, making it stand out. The rooms were clean and comfortable, offering neat extra touches like water bottles and biscuits. The service was very nice, and the location was great for walks along the seafront and Babacombe Downs. The dining experience was really well presented and tasty, could only have been better with the addition of fresh fruit. The facilities were excellent, providing everything needed for a pleasant stay.
