Lovely stay in Plymouth.

Lovely one night stay in Plymouth. Terrific location close to the Hoe and the Barbican, easy walk. Breakfast was amazing, very generous continental buffet and a hot breakfast to order, all delicious. Bed was comfortable. It was a good climb up narrow stairs, as per many UK hotels. Otherwise a great value for money.

Fantastic!

What a wonderful find! The hotel had a great atmosphere with lovely decor, was very clean, lovely staff (Kate was very helpful and very accommodating with our friend who was on crutches) and very nice rooms. Breakfast was excellent, kept us going all day. Hotel is close to all the restaurants, the Hoe and surrounding areas. We are fairly local but will be back when visiting Plymouth again.
