Difficult to rate between Terrible and Okay ....... A group of family friends booked 5 rooms whilst we attended a family wedding over a weekend. Some arrived on the Friday, some on the Saturday. As a group in our fifties with some children as well, we are mature people who enjoy each others company. The first group met up after... more

We booked this inn on laterooms.com as it was amazing value for money at £45 b&b. I checked the reviews on Tripadvisor and went ahead. The room was good, freeview tv, no shower but a welcome written apology and given the holiday season they couldn't have attended to the problem sooner. The jacuzzi bath was great. Staff were good, food,... more

We just returned from a three-day stay at the Hoops Inn near Bideford in Devon. The hotel is located on the A39 in rural north Devon, surrounded by a quiet farming landscape. The building is a period thatched house containing the main bar, the restaurant area and some of the bedrooms. There is a modern extension at the rear where... more

My son and I went to the Hoops Inn for a couple of nights over New Year 2008. We had an amazing time - the food was extraordinary, the wine list was brilliant, we have never had service like it. The room was newly refurbished (some photos have been post a couple of years ago of room 9 - need... more

My wife and I have just returned from a 2 day break at The Hoops. We stayed in one of the superior rooms, and the room was gorgeous with a separate bathroom and canopied bed. The whole place exceeded our expectations. The environment was very homely and comfortable. The staff could not do enough for you and were always courteous.... more

We booked the Mallow Suite, a superior room for a treat. Two of the three radiators didn't work and it was freezing. Staff at reception bordering on insulting -are you sure you switched them on? The room smelt damp -and was damp. Patches of mould on the walls, bathroom and curtain linings. (they looked like they had never been cleaned... more

The hotel was ok, but very basic, not what we expected for the amount of money we paid, was damp in the walls and the room wasnt very sound proof from tjhose next door!. We met up with family in the area for a meal. I ordered chicken and Vegtables. This consisted of a tiny piece of rubbery chicken and... more

This was our first break for a few years so we were looking for something special. We found the Hoops Inn on an internet search and decided to give it a try. This as it turns out, was probably one of the best decisions we have made recently. On arrival we were checked in efficiently with a friendly welcome and... more

My wife and I were looking for that last minute get-away-from-it-all break and came across the details for the Hoops Inn on Hotels.com. After reading most of the reviews on trip advisor we decided to give it a go. We arrived at around 13.00 on Sunday 13th April and it immediately became apparent that this place is very popular for... more

Be prepared, this is an overpriced pub and not a country hotel as per the website! We booked a "junior family suite" for 2 adults and 2 small children. The room was large and was probably an old stable or garage. The wiring only allows for main lights & wall lights together, you cannot turn the main lights off and... more
