HHHHmmmmmm. My partner and I have just spent two nights at 'the Barnstaple' - having travelled to the area for a friends wedding. I have to say that ALL staff without question were friendly and cheerful and the hotel ( ex Motel ) is spotlessly clean, modern in most areas and very pleasant. However, our booking confirmation on the internet... more

I stayed at The Barnstaple Hotel for one night during July, whislt travelling in the area on business. Let's make something clear - this is not the prettiest hotel in the world and it doesn't have much in the way of character (I think it used to be a motel). However it does tick some important boxes. For example: -... more

I've made several stays at the Barnstaple Hotel and am about to book another. There is no other property close by for someone on foot, and I can be at the local plant in under 10 minutes. There's nothing sexy about the place. Yes, it's a half step up from a motel and yes, it needs redecoration to join the... more

Crossroads meets Hi-di-hi. Very 1970s, in need of updating and on the edge of a dual carriageway next to a bowling alley (having said that friendly staff and a decent breakfast). BUT the bigger question is why on earth would you want to stay in Barnstaple? don't be fooled into thinking this is an idyllic Devon town. It's truly one... more

Thankyou for your review on our hotel, I would like to point out that there are hundreds of people who think differently about Barnstaple, having lived here for 27 years I thoroughly enjoy it myself, but it is not to suit everyone, like most places in the world. I would also like to add that we are having a major...

We had a family gathering here for 3 nights in October. The staff were lovely and made a real effort to accommodate us; dogs, kids and all. The rooms were good and the bathrooms excellent. The quality of the food was outstanding, everything we ordered was delicious. Good portions and way above what you would expect. The indoor swimming pool... more

I stayed here on a Saturday night in August. At check in I was greeted by someone who appeared to be attending a wedding who, when I said I wanted to check in went and found a receptionist. I was given the usual guest register to fill in and then forgotton about. When the receptionist did return she told me... more

After some recent hotel experiences we were most pleasantly surprised by our stay at The Barnstaple. From arriving at Reception until our departure the level of service was of a standard we thought had long been forgotten in this country. The staff were unfailingly cheerful, courteous and efficient, how they dealt with problems we don't know because there weren't any.... more

Had an absolutely awesome time here. First time ever that I've really felt completely at home in a hotel. Last minute booking at 10pm at night after a stupidly long drive, the staff were very freindly and got me a room for £60 including breakfast. No complaints so far. The room itself was absolutely spotless. Its usually the little things... more

i stayed here on business, the hotel has a 70's decor reception. Parking is good. They have good leisure faclities. My room was clean but the fixtures are worn. The staff was excellent as was the food. A good percentage of the rooms are outside, which i did not like. My room was outside. The hotel is ok, as there... more
