Now under the remit of Holiday Inn once again, this hotel is based right up on the top of Plymouth Hoe. Offering all of the facilities that you could ask for in a hotel - bedrooms; top class restaurant; leisure facilities; right next to the city centre, and overlooking one of the best bays in the country at least. Although it doesn't look very nice from the oustide, once you step inside you realise that your first impressions were wrong. And what is even better is that the restaurant is on the top floor with windows on 3 sides - offering you views from the rolling Devon countryside on one side, through the glorious sea views with naval ships, cross-channel ferries and other smaller floating vessels, to the rolling Cornish hills and countryside on the other. The majoirty of bedrooms also have these views, whoch are outstanding to wake up to on a lovely summer's day. It is priced in the middle of the road range, what you expect to pay on average for a hotel like this in many cities. Go and stay in it, and you will be amazed! The food is just as amazing, and even non-residents can make use of the restaurant and bar areas. The well-stocked bar just really finishes it all off, and leaves you with lasting memories.
Advantages: Great views. Disadvantages: Pay for the car park!
Well this week resulted in me finally completing the sale to purchase my new house in Cornwall, but the only problem was that Cornwall is still into the holiday season so most hotels were still fully booked up. HELP! What was I to do as being disabled; many Guest Houses and Bed and Breakfasts are unsuitable for my needs. So after looking on the Internet, I found a room at PlymouthHoeMoatHouse Hotel.
On arriving at PlymouthHoeMoatHouse Hotel you can drop off at the hotel entrance but must go behind the hotel to park in either the underground car park or alternatively in the external car park. There seems to be reasonably ample car parking space, but during the height of the holiday season I think parking places are at a premium. Well there are two hundred and ten bedrooms in this quality hotel, which is situated both close to ...
Advantages: Locality of beaches, great to eat and drink. Good base to explore Devon and Cornwall Disadvantages: Long drive from most of the country, bad city centre
Right, where do i begin? There's too much to say...
Guess the first thing is to start with a bit... don't worry only a bit...of history.
Although unrecognisable now, as it's all merged into one, Plymouth originally consisted of three towns.
The Barbican (where I live), Stonehouse and Plympton.
The Barbican was and still is the major fishing harbour for the town.
Stonehouse was where the huge, armarda defeating, Navy were based, and still are, and Plympton....well thats just Plympton!
I expect you know this already but Sir Francis Drake was supposed to have been playing bowls on PlymouthHoe when he was informed of the approaching Spanish Armarda.
He finished his game and then duly sailed out and kicked their ass!
Anyway let me got on with the guide.
WHERE TO STAY
The best hotels are the;
MOATHOUSE - great views ...
Advantages: Affordable high class hotel, friendly and helpful staff and good position. Disadvantages: Lack of mini bar.
I have just returned from Plymouth. I went for my sisters hen night and my wonderful husband booked me into a crown room at the MoatHouse Hotel on the Hoe at Plymouth. He went to visit his mother with our four children.
I arrived late Friday evening and quickly and effortlessly I was directed to my room for the weekend. After dumping my bags I then preceded to the restaurant to have my long awaited for evening meal. I had telephoned at about 7.30pm that evening requesting a table for 9pm.
I waited a couple of minutes to be shown to my table, which seemed like an eternity as I had not eaten all day. I was seated by a window, which had it not been dark, I would have seen the sea.
My booking had been a leisure weekend booking so I had the choice of three set meal. I was quickly offered a drink and due to my husbands instructions I ...
