Reviews and Ratings
My stay at The Quay was fantastic! The rooms were amazing, clean, and warm, though a bit more hanging space would have been nice. The service was top-notch, with the staff always cheerful and helpful. The location is fabulous, right on the waterfront with lovely views over to Instow, making it easy to access everything in the area. The dining experience had its ups and downs, but overall enjoyable. The facilities were great, adding to the overall comfort of my stay.
The hotel is perfectly situated in the heart of Appledore on the quayside, offering lovely views and a prime location. The rooms are light and airy, although they could benefit from a new paint job. The service was exceptional, with staff rearranging rooms to ensure a comfortable stay. The dining experience was amazing, featuring beautifully cooked meals with a wide selection. Overall, a great choice for a peaceful and picturesque retreat.
