Nice place but a few annoying things …
Ok stay… room is clean and modern, bathroom is tired. No bottles of water available in the room which is a shame, considering the price. The cups and saucers are again old fashioned, can’t make the hot chocolate in the cup as it’s too small and annoyingly there is a balcony light which is controlled by the hotel and switches off at 12am so if you like pitch darkness when you sleep, you won’t get that. Gym also opens at 7am so if your an early gym goer, may not work for you

The room was too warm at 28 even with window open. The air conditioner wasn’t working properly an£ stopped when it got to 25! We asked for help and was told the windows needed to be closed bu5 even though we did this th3 temp just rose to 27 The night staff said the air conditioners have not been emptied and we could hav a free second night, but I would rather have my money. I wouldn’t want to stay in a room not hot again. The facilities weren’t brilliant either.

Booked a pool view room (24) for my wife and her friend at extra cost but when she arrived the room was very noisy due to pool machinery. She complained and it wasnt possible to allocate another twin room and was told it would stop at 11pm but it didnt and they got very little sleep. Ruined the stay. Emailed hotel manager after got home but no response from the hotel which was disappointing

Business trip but never again.
Dated hotel that reminds me of an old American motel or Butlins, really run down needs a big renovation, the bathrooms are vile and the towels are dirty and smell damp. The bedroom is basic and dull, dirty cups and spoons strange smell and no bottled water, it gives off a Butlins vibe when you look at it from the pool side, just really grimy I wouldn’t stay again even if the staff were nice, couldn’t wait to leave so left before 6:30am

Great hotel if you just want to use the very well presented facilities inside the hotel confines. It's easy to find but sitting on the edge of an industrial estate. Its a 15 minute walk into the centre of the town.

Worthy of a 5* rating
Absolutely gob-smacked when we arrived at the Barnstaple Hotel, it was fantastic and totally unexpected. Staff were lovely, ambience great and it was just so welcoming. It was a fairly last minute booking, a one night stay and I hadn't really taken much notice of reviews etc. Great regret that I hadn't packed my swim-wear as the pools looked so enticing. Our room was so comfortable, such a shame that we couldn't spend longer there. Couldn't fault the hotel at all and we will definitely make a point of returning to Barnstaple and spending a few days at the Barnstaple Hotel, it was a holiday in itself.
