There are good and bad things to say about this hotel. Firstly the description as a 'hotel' is over-ambitious as there is no staffed reception at all, not even during the day; bar isn't open all day and the lounge is really a thoroughfare to the rooms. It is in an excellent location though, close to the Harbour and the... More

Stayed over the Easter break 2012. Booked based on some of the Trip Advisor comments and did not expect much and to be honest, we were not then disappointed! First of all we did not eat here. Breakfast had a strict regime of 8:00 to 9:00am only, even at weekends and this was not flexible, ok you can argue we... More

The exterior is disappointing but our room was lovely. We stayed in the middle of March and unfortunately most of Ilfracombe was still closed for the winter! Our room was top floor front (11 or 12) and was worth the climb. We did not notice any noise apart from the chimes of the church clock which was already on British... More

Lovely hotel. Not a good first impression however, as it was closed when we first arrived and didn't open until 4pm (beware if you want an earlier check-in!!). But, once we got in, it was fab. Great welcome, shown to room, very well presented and decorated and comfortable. Plus a great breakfast in the morning. Would definitely use this again... More

stayed a single night recently, and enjoyed our quick visit. The hotel is slowly being renovated by the owner, about 2 rooms a year I believe. A typical old building, many creaks and groans, so so plumbing, noise from upstairs and outside, etc. One downside was a cold shower, the water dribbled out for such a long time the hot... More

The Capstone hotel and restaurant is located in a prime position in Ilfracombe, approx. 2 minutes walk from the Harbour and a 5 minute walk from the Marine drive car park, which in itself offers very reasonable parking rates. Don't be deceived from the exterior appearance of the Capstone because once you're inside the building the rooms are very comfortable... More

Not sure where to start. We picked this hotel for it's location and good reviews. We felt so at home. We were right on the harbour. The owners are just great, they go out of there way to help out. There is a fantastic restaurant downstairs that serves steak like you have never had before - perfect. IMHO this is... More

We were a party of ten people. The hot water ran out for baths in the evening and in the morning. The breakfasts were good. The dinner was not good - sausages and mash, a lukewarm vegetarian meal and no fish which was surprising considering the hotel is so near a working harbour. The rooms were good but ours was... More

My wife and I were looking for a hotel for a short break in Ilfracombe and opted for The Capstone Hotel. We were not dissapointed - this is lovely hotel and ahs the benefit of a nice restaurant attached. We recieved a very friendly welcome and were well looked after throughout our stay. The room was lovely and the bathroom... More
