Royal Britannia Hotel, hotel in Ilfracombe

Located in the picturesque Devonshire town of Illfracombe is the Royal Britannia Hotel.

The room was clean and spacious. Beds were super comfy. I slept like a log and we spent the majority of our time on our beds so the fact that we were comfortable was ideal. Breakfast was filling and freshly cooked. My son had the kippers which made a nice change for him as it's not something usually offered on a breakfast menu. I had the full english as I'm a creature of habit, both of which were just what we needed to set us up for the day and very reasonably priced too. We booked in advance which saved us a couple of pounds but would have happily paid the full price. Christmas day lunch in their sister restaurant was amazing and well worth the price. The staff in both sites were amazing, helpful, polite and courteous.

    Ilfracombe is a lovely place to visit, however please be aware how hilly it is. Walking down to harbour is easy but the return journey can be a bit of a slog. Had gluten free fish and chips from Lynbay fish and chip shop. Gluten free cream tea from St James tea garden. Wasn't overly impressed with the beach as it mainly slate pebbles, but Woolacombe is not far away with golden sands.

    Many part of this town including its HIGH STREET are looking terribly run down and rough. So too some pubs ... I'm sure it will perk up in higher season but money needs to be spent on its appearance . The streets felt as safe as most places in Britain and some Bistros and cafes were delightful. Roads are narrow and some extremely vertiginous . Parking can be an issue in high season I guess.

    Ilfracombe is worth a visit and is probably better in the summer than when we visited. We preferred Woolacombe and Puttsborough beach is great for surfing. We walked around Baggy Point and saw some amazing views. Well worth a visit.

    There were some really lovely parts of Ilfracombe and some not so nice , like most towns . Most of the architecture is stunning with old and new together but some new don't fit in. The scenery on the coast is amazing with lots of craggy coves and you can walk along the South West Coast Path . There is a small harbour where a stunning Damien Hirst statue is of Verity ,Statue of Justice if I remember correctly Parts of Ilfracombe are quite steep but there are slopes and some roads on the flat. We ate Sunday lunch at the Thatched Inn , had Breakfast at the Lime Kiln Cafe down by a cove . We loved it.

    Lovely rugged coastline all still very natural. The town however was a little disappointing in terms of felt a bit run down and lacking in investment in some areas. Worth a visit altho not too long as I think more useful to use as a base to travel than a holiday in as wasn’t enough to offer.

    As we were attending a wedding it was a good location for us but probably not the right time of year for shopping etc as most of the shops were empty or closed down. I'm sure its much better in the summer!

    Great location, you can walk down the hill into Ilfracombe easily or hop on the bus with a stop right outside. Tesco just up the hill for provisions, and easy access to roads all around North Devon. Staff are very friendly. Accommodation is basic but comfortable with everything you could need. We didn’t use the on site facilities much but noted an indoor pool and clubhouse which looked fun for families. Makes a great base for exploring North Devon and also for some evenings in Ilfracombe which is fun.

    Terence and Piper were excellent and accommodating right from the start. This is a lovely and really well thought through hotel where the care and attention to detail from the owners can be seen throughout; from the fantastic colour scheme and decoration, to the comfy beds and delicious breakfast. This was our first visit to Ilfracombe and I couldn’t recommend this place enough.

    Very stylish hotel, 15 minute walk down hill to centre . Owners were so friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome. Breakfast cooked to order and were excellent. Ilfracombe is very hilly so if you have mobility problems I would look to stay nearer the town centre where its flat. Overall excellent and would definetly stay there again

    plenty of choice and extremely well cooked and served breakfast. The location is perfect for local amenities and for getting around north Devon. only a short drive to beautiful Woolacombe beach, a place we have visited many times over 50 years. Ilfracombe has a wonderful selection of restaurants and many enjoyable walks.

    The hotel was selected as it needed to be near where my friends were staying. It was an ideal location within easy walking distance of all parts of the town. Unless venturing further afield there is no need for the car to move while staying in Ilfracombe with everything pretty much on the doorstep.
