After reading the reviews on Trip advisor I felt that the some of the reviews were unfair and a misrepresentation of the Arlington. I have stayed here with my family 3 times since 2010. Yes, the place is dated - there is no denying that fact. However, you will not find a more friendly, warm hotel at a reasonable price... More

After booking to stay at this hotel I read some mixed reviews and some were quite worrying, so I expected the worse, but as soon as we were given our key and shown the way to the lift my worries soon lifted. The hotel is old but it has amazing character, it actually fits in with Ilfracombe perfectly - an... More

On arrival at the hotel we were asked to settle the bill before even seeing the room. Had we seen the room first we would not have stayed there. Yes the view was great but that didn't make up for the tired decor, bed that sank in the middle, dark bathroom and the old musty smell. The windows rattled, the... More

Just come back from Arlington Hotel in Ilfracombe, positioned overlooking the sea and could be so good. It is one of the most dated hotels we have ever stayed at, but at least it wAs clean. Such a shame given its location. More
