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.

What a lovely hotel so attentive and friendly. The breakfast was very enjoyable with great quality food. The hotel and room was modern and spotlessly clean with good facilities. All of the staff were very friendly and informative, it was so nice to stay in a dog friendly hotel that still offered all the comforts of home. We would 100% recommend to anyone with or without a dog.
