Royal York & Faulkner Hotel

Having stayed at this hotel regularly for 20 years, we again enjoyed a 3 night break. The same unique ambience that has attracted so many people over the years lives on, but as the hotel approaches a change of ownership this is a crucial time. We hope that the same high standards will continue and the atmosphere will be preserved. On this visit most was still in place, but we noticed small areas of cutting corners: formerly personalised toiletries had turned into universal tubes of shower gel etc, towels were smaller, and not all the evening meals were of a consistently high standard. The staff (some of whom are very longstanding employees) were as friendly and helpful as ever, and everything in the hotel was clean, tidy and well presented. We sincerely hope that it continues to be a unique part of Sidmouth.

Wow what a stunning hotel The food is fresh and well cooked the staff ( Rachel) and others couldn’t do enough for us The bedrooms and sitting rooms are very well apppointed I felt very spoilt, to add to the magic the beach is directly opposite. Thank you for a very enjoyable time …. Sublime

Nice people, good food. Room comfortable though the floor was "interesting" with hills & valleys! Would certainly come again
