We were personally greeted by the owner and offered help with our luggage which was a nice touch. The entrance hall has a real wow-factor and the hotel is immaculately kept, inside and out. Our room overlooked the owner's beautiful garden and I spotted some freshly harvested potatoes in a trug on the patio! Our room was spacious, light and well-equiped with modern decoration. It was spotlessly clean with some lovey personal touches and thoughtful extras. We were particularly impressed with the provision of hot chocolate sachets, biscuits and water on the hospitality tray. The bed linen was crisp and fresh and, on arrival, our room was beautifully presented with towels neatly folded on the end of the bed and scatter cushions arranged nicely. We were very pleased that there was a duvet and no itchy blankets - bliss!. The only complaint we had was that the bed was a bit soft in the middle. Whilst the en-suite was 'quirky' (part of the room partioned off with a stud wall and sliding door) and it had an avocado suite it was more than adequate and was so clean it was gleaming. Again, there were thoughtful touches like air freshener, liquid soap and a 'spot the difference' on the wall opposite the loo. Most of the furnishings looked brand new and the wardrobes etc. were of a very good quality, chunky pine (proper wooden hangers in wardrobes). The lounge has spectacular views, there was a very good choice for breakfast and the full English was one of the best I've ever had - hot and fresh. We would thoroughly recommend this hotel to anyone. We're already planning our next stay.

An above average small hotel, with good size comfortable rooms, a decent shower, and is easily located as you enter Ilfracombe from the B399 or A39.
As our stay was only one night well out of season, we can't comment on some aspects, such as evening meals and any noise problem within the hotel when full/busy, but the breakfast was much better than is often found in seaside accommodation.
Its location provides walking distance access to the town centre, the harbour and beach areas, yet it is located in a quiet area (albeit somewhat uphill when you walk back!)

The hosts were pleasant and very helpful with local information, history and for the best places to eat, etc.

We would definitely stay again if in the area.

The web site does not do this place justice - we had a very warm welcome. The Tower family room was bright and airy with some nice touches. The bathroom in particular was large with 4 windows overlooking the harbour, everything was clean and bright. Very traditional decor throughout, but we felt that this added to the charm - although the breakfast room is a little dark and drab. The food was fine - usual breakfast with veggies catered for with no fuss although abit early at 8:00 - 9:15 sharp even on a sunday. Would recommend you stay here - easy walk to town via the pretty harbour and great service with a smile!

The Towers Hotel had a grand entrance , but the room was outdated and very small, with a strange ensuite , no hot water, a very creaky bed and my partner decided it was Fawlty Towers reborn!!!!!!
