We have stayed in many hotels and B&B’s but this is by far one of the best . From the moment we walked through the doors we were made to feel welcome , micheal welcomed us and was very informative, he told us about places to eat and never pushed his own restaurant on us but we are so glad we booked the restaurant, the food was top class , definitely up there 5 🌟. The breakfast menu was huge, not your standard menu. The hotel is modern , clean and bright . A big thank you to all the staff that made our stay. Would definitely recommend and would definitely come back .

The Carlton Hotel is our favorite spot to stay in Ilfracombe. The location is good, being on same level as the harbour for easy walking, and with it's own parking area. The rooms are always spotless and extremely well maintained and the staff are very frindly and helpful.
