Royal Beacon Hotel  

All Staff very friendly and helpful. Pleasant bars.

Limited menu for Sunday evening dining. Tight for parking.

I've spent only one night. Actually I did arrive very late in the evening and left early in the morning. The restaurant was closed when I arrived but the manager proposed to prepare a sandwich for me, which I did accept and appreciated his kind attention. Very nice guy !

Parking... not easy to find a find a space.

as i have said the hotel is top class on par with many top hotels i have stayed in over the world the service excellent the food well done too our likeing only one problem where was the lobster as its my best seafood otherwise well done too all

Parking

I had a comfortable room . Breakfast had pleanty of choice and was well cooked . Staff were friendly . Well positioned hotel .

Can't think of anything I did not like .

Location and view of river Exe

Paint brush let on balcony To rot

Friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere and good restaurants, especially the Italian. If you eat in, you WILL put on weight! Comfortable side room with reasonable view. Very clean, despite the obvious age of the building, which adds to the "antique charm". Enjoyed my few days break and would happily return.

Almost impossible to get a space in the car-park, which was OK in May but must be a nightmare during high season! Could have done with some more shelf space in the bathroom.

Thank you we enjoyed our stay at the Beacon & hope to come again

We enjoyed every aspect of the hotel, the staff were very friendly and helpful, the food excellent in both restaurant and bar and the rooms were comfortable and serviced each day. We have already booked another holiday at the Beacon Hotel in September.

Could not find any faults.

Eveything

Interesting old building. Convenient location. Very friendly reception.

Poor parking. Some food combinations rather strange. Waiting staff not always good at understanding English (but very friendly attitude).

Comfort and facilities in room. Nice bathroom. Nice view. Space to sit.

Friendly staff, spacious bedroom & en-suite.

Heating & shower needs refurbishing

Closeness to everything, comfy bed, cleanliness, breakfast

The room was very noisy on sat night/Sunday morning

The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The Hotel was spotlessly clean. A very good choice of restaurants for evening meals. In a wonderful position overlooking the sea.

Parking was difficult at times there only being enough space for about 6 cars in the Hotels car park.

The location was excellent, we had 2 rooms both were well decorated to a high standard. The single was in fact a twin, so lots of room. Staff very friendly and helpful. Excellent breakfast that was included in the tariff.

We had 2 rooms a double and a single, a previous guest had been smoking in the room, not the hotels fault, but the double room smelt of stale smoke. We had 2 rooms and the double bedded room needed a new bed it was very uncomfortable. Double room only had a small wet room bathroom, a bit cramped. Tried to charge us the walk in room rate not the 'Booking.com rate' so take confirmation with you as proof. Car parking may be difficult at busy times of the year. Lots of stairs, there is a small lift.

This was our 4 th visit to The Royal Beacon.So lovely to be back and what a great room this time. The sea view was a bonus.

Sometimes difficult to park but that would never stop us coming back.

The Italian restaurant downstairs and the bar area.

All good

Staff are friendly and helpfull. Wide choice of menu, something for everyone

Noise from the lift at night

Position just above the seafront Good hot water and a large bath. Excellent Italian restaurant downstairs.

When we arrived the bedroom was very cold - the window had been left open and the central heating hadn't yet come on. It would have been nice if apologies and a complimentary cup of tea in the loungs had been offered, as opposed to excuses and the suggestiuon we buy a cup of tea. A bad start to an indulgent break - The room did warm up and the rest of our stay wasasant, but we nearly left before finding this out! To decribe the room as 'overlooking the courtyard' is a dressed up way of saying; the hotel car park.

Nice view over the mouth of the River Exe ... & Very nice Breakfast

The Bathroom was clean... But Very old .. various loose floorboards... But worst of all ... The Sash Windows Rattled all night and were So badly fitting that when Curtains closed ... the draft through the window cuased the heavy curtains to move !!! My Friend stayed in the room above mine and hers was just as bad !! :-(

Excellent hotel, mid budget range. The staff were so friendly and helpful it made the stay soo much more pleasant. A lovely comfortable, welcoming hotel. Great views over the beach and the sea. We will return it was ideal.

Nothing

bar area very nice,staff very accomodating,our room was nice,breakfast was very good.

our first room was room 202 with a connecting door. unfortunately we asked to be moved from this room as we could hear every word spoken by the guest next door, and even when he flushed the toilet!!! The room given to us was 107 which was a much quieter one.

Our third visit to this hotel. Another very enjoyable stay , good food, service and room

Warm and comfortable lounge and bar to relax in

We have stayed here on at least four other occasions. We were disappointed with Donatos on this visit, so after first night dined elsewhere. Food did not seem to have been prepared by an italian chef. Waiter service however was good
