Dilkhusa Grand Hotel by Compass Hospitality

Friendly welcome and service at this hotel. Helped me with my bags as even though there’s a lift there are a lot of stairs between levels on the floors. Allowed me to leave my bags during the day after check out and collect later. Didn’t try breakfast so can’t comment on that. It’s a basic hotel with quite dated decor but the rooms are clean and service good. Good choice for overnight before or after ferry to Lundy Island.

Upon arrival, we were greeted with a completely full car park, forcing us to park on the street and pay for the privilege, which was an unwelcome start to my stay. The check-in process was uneventful, but that was the only positive aspect of my experience; the room bore no resemblance to the enticing photos advertised online whatsoever. Small and cramped. The view from our room was so dismal that we might as well have boarded up the window, as it offered nothing but a bleak outlook. The floors creaked incessantly, allowing us to hear every door slam and every conversation from neighboring rooms, making it impossible to find any peace or quiet. To top it all off, the heating was cranked up all night, leaving us to wake up drenched in sweat, as it seemed the hotel keeps the heating on all night else there would be no hot water. I would have preferred to camp with the drug users across the street instead.

Good or nice location
