A really lovely stay, local to the town centre. The car park was tiny due to some on going work on the premises, but to have parking in a town centre hotel. The bed was comfortable, the facilities in the room great and despite a slight issue in the room on arrival, this was sorted very quickly and efficiently. Breakfast was amazing too! ##### Simon Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Stewart 20 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely hotel This was a nice hotel/ location to stay in, would stay again ##### Stewart Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Marllyn 4 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely hotel and very helpful staff, good location and parking ok ##### Marllyn Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mr Ryan A 13 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice clean hotel in centre of town , good breakfast ##### Mr Ryan A Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### julia 8 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very conveniently placed hotel in the town centre I found The Royal & Fortescue to be a lovely comfortable place to stay in the centre of Barnstaple very close to all amenities including the bus station which was so handy for getting to other near by attractions. The hotel is very clean and welcoming. We had a really nice relaxing stay and if in Barnstaple again would be more than happy to stay again. ##### julia Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Laurence 8 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely hotel.

Thought it a little on expensive side for the room very small expect because it would be serving larger groups for weddings. As a couple would not return but would return to restaurant which was excellent. Very clean and lovely staff comfortable beds. ##### Brenda Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hessam 18 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Cheers I loved everything about this place. I had to park in a different spot than the free one, for the second and third night, but it was not really that expensive at all. ##### Hessam Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Karen 30 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely room, Staff extremely helpful.
