Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers incredible views of the funicular railway from the rooms, and the hosts are attentive, providing a pleasant stay. However, the service lacks attention to detail at times. The location, overlooking the sea from a hilltop, is breathtaking, but the dining experience could be improved with more variety.
The hotel offers splendid views from its hilltop location and is conveniently situated by the tram, providing easy access to the Welsh coast and Valley of the Rocks. The rooms boast a brilliant design, albeit with minimal wardrobe space, and are accompanied by nice clean sheets. The service was excellent and housekeeping provided top-notch care, though pet amenities were lacking. The dining experience was delightful, with a relaxing ambiance and all fresh ingredients used. However, the high prices may not align with everyone's budget.
The hotel is uniquely positioned by the tram with stunning views, offering a brilliant design in the master bedroom and between the funicular railway. The service provided was excellent, although there were room for improvement. It does give the stunning view, and the housekeeping was on point with pet amenities available. The location on the cliffs at Lynton overlooking the sea is breathtaking, providing an exceptional experience to The Valley of the Rocks. The dining with all fresh ingredients and a relaxing ambiance was a highlight. However, it lacks attention to detail in the service quality. The facilities were modern and well-maintained.
