This hotel is located within a few minutes walk of the city center and within easy reach of Plymouth Hoe. The imposing Grade Two listed building is over two hundred years old and the character and feel that you would expect from a hotel of this age and standing.
Over recent years the building and rooms have been subject to substantial renovation and the purchaser will be acquiring a business requiring little further attention. Every one of the twenty-one bedrooms has been fully redecorated and benefits from an en suite bathroom, coffee and tea making facilities and a flat screen colour television.
Guests and non-residents can enjoy a drink in the atmospheric oak paneled bar prior to dining in the restaurant that can cater for circa seventy covers at any one time. The hotel is a free house and has no ties to any suppliers.
Key to the catering success has been the extensive refit of the kitchen. A state of the art extraction system complements new cooking ranges, fridges and preparation areas and creates a comfortable working environment for the chef.
Key Strengths:
Such is the level of refinement this hotel could easily be regraded to a three star establishment. Its key strength for many years has been to maintain a good level of occupancy.

It is also a popular destination for those travellers bound for the continent and who require somewhere to stay prior to an early ferry crossing!
This is not part of a soul less chain of hotels. The welcome is both warm and genuine and the service levels high. The hotel has an average occupancy of over seventy five percent with much of that footfall being repeat customers.
