Hotels in Axminster

"We stayed in a Swiss Style Lodge for 2 nights in April. The lodge and surrounding grounds were well maintained and have a nice aspect - however the carpets and soft furnishings in the lodge were filthy. This really let the property down and our experience of staying here. This is something that is cheap and easy to rectify, and needs to be sorted by the management team ASAP to encourage guests to stay again. We appreciated being able to use the gym and swimming pool in the main hotel. There was some miscommunication from the receptionist over the appropriate time our children could use the swimming pool. There are swimming lessons in the pool during the weekdays which restricts access by guests to the pool, as the lanes are cordoned off. This makes the pool a bit crowded but nevertheless, our children enjoyed using the pool."

" Easy check-in. Friendly helpful staff. Clean room. Delicious breakfast with plenty of choice."

"Really enjoyed our stay here. Staff so friendly and loved the way the building has been kept sympathetic to its past. Coffee shop is great, as is the breakfast."

"I had a really excellent experience staying here. The staff were really helpful and friendly, the room was large and clean, the price was very reasonable. Breakfast was good - the scrambled eggs were amazing, but the sausages could have been better (though I've had far worse). The lounge area is very good, spacious and comfortable - perfect for a casual meeting."

"Sam ( Manager), was very welcoming ,approachable and knowledgeable about the hotel and area. The bedroom was immaculate , there were plenty of warm drink provions, soft towels and toiletries provided. Our breakfast foods were fresh& tasty- there was a variety of cereals if you wishes, cooked breakfast, warm and cold drinks. Parking is at the front of the hotel and only £6 per night. All of the staff were very friendly and we would definitely recommend staying there. The sea is accords the road. Will definitely book again… Sam even carried our suitcases to our car. Very pleased-5 star!"

"When I came into the hotel and was given my room key, the first thing I noticed was the smell of dampness in the room. The carpet had burned marks all over it and stains and in places was missing carpet and built bar floor. The wallpaper was torn off the walls. The room was filthy dirty had not been cleaned and full of dust and dirt smoked disgusting so did the toilet and shower. There was sick and vomit on the side of the wall dried in there are multiple stains on the roof on the walls of the hotel room and over the bed. The mattress was completely filthy. Looked about 20 years old. I would not let a dog sleep in the room or even a cat the heating was switched off and did not work because of the pipework had been leaking. They were visible. Water stains all over the floor. All of the paint was peeling off the walls and ceilings and there was black mould on the windows of the hotel room. I went straight back to the hotel front desk and said the room is nothing like the ones in your photographs and I was told the hotel had not been redone for a long time and they know there is issues with the hotel and they’re trying to upgrade some of the rims when they can afford to do it however this is just the way their rooms are right now I asked and demanded to be moved to a different room. I was then shown another room which was even worse there is no elevator in the hotel room a lot of stairs and the hotel room smells of cigarettes and dogs and there was rubbish all through the hallwa"

"Very good value for money, excellent staff"

"Clean room and good staff"

"Very good evening meal, food was excellent with a reasonable choice of dishes, we had a sea view which was lovely with a little balcony. Hotel is quite tired, but comfortable and the staff are amazing and a superb location with plenty of parking which you have to pay extra for."
