8/10 Good
"Lovely central hotel. Room was extremely hot although we had a fan in the room. It would have been good to have a chair or sofa in the room so we didn’t have to sit on the bed. The room was very large so there would have been plenty of room. We did however enjoy our stay and would consider returning if we are in the area again"

"The hotel had free parking and close to beach . Bar closed at 10.30 so no late drinks . Room was clean, had to ask for clean towels as stayed for 3 days and although room was checked daily only basics done bin emptied cups washed. Would have been nice to have had clean towels daily and shower cleaned. Breakfast was included good choice although fry up not that fresh it felt thou bacon had been kept warm maybe would be better if we had breakfasted earlier. The fresh choices better options as cooked to order . Recommend eggs Benedict was delicious. Plenty of pastries to choose from .They catered for GF very well . Pool a wonderful bonus available to book for private use of 45 minutes had jacuzzi and sauna plus small pool . Towels for pool available from reception remember to ask as they don’t offer. Staff all wonderful same staff doing numerous shifts they work hard made stay very enjoyable will recommend as good place to stay."

"Booked a twin room but told they were full on arrival so we were upgraded to the family room. Love that it was literally near the entrance on ground floor. Only downside to the room as the pull out sofa bed dipped so my daughter was sleeping in a downward tiltwd position and the room had a musty smell to it. Aside from that, food was great and handy to a restaurant on site. Also other eateries nearby too. Was fine for a nights stay."

The Devon Hotel

The Devon Hotel

8/10 Good
"Driving up to the hotel, it looked disappintingly like a low end budget hotel....i see now why the first image on expedia was of the attached Carriages Restaurant. On this particular visit, the land close by was being developed... cant hear anything, but the view from the room looked out towards the construction site. Carpet along the hallways was dated. Room itself was good but more attention needs to be paid to dusting.. there were threads of spider web in the coffee cups.. Air conditioning worked nicely, beds were clean and comfortable. Room wasnt as spacious as id throught it might have been. Bathroom was well presented...the tap did seem "blocked"... and indeed it was... after several wipes with tissue paper, wiping away gunk that had clogged it up, the tap was flowing nicely... toilet was low profile and clean. The experience with the taps did however make me feel uncomfortable using it. At night, on a clear night, the car park made for an excellent star gazing site."

"Lovely hotel, great rooms and such comfy beds. It was a warm night and the air con was very good. I’ve stayed here a few times now and the only reason I’ve not given 5 stars is that I’m starting to notice a few minor maintenance issues creeping in such as some mould in the shower that hasn’t been cleaned. Apart from that though very much recommended and I look forward to my next visit, 🙂"
