Basic B&B in good location

Well decorated room with the basics included (shampoo, conditioner, tea, coffee). Breakfast was options of fry up or egg dishes. No options of fruit. Pillows on bed were very flat and not comfy. Good location and free parking on street. Fire alarm went off on Sunday morning and staff were not able to turn it off until the manager arrived which was an inconvenience.

There were several disturbances during late Eve and early morning lasting for a long time. The staff were quite dismissive about this. I did mention this on leaving and was given discount for the dog staying.

Lovely and comfy spot

Lovely location on main/only street in Alnmouth, near several nice pubs and restaurants- also, above a very nice pub. Bed was comfy and good size for two, decor was lovely and fresh, shower pressure was good, perfect cleanliness. Pub food is amazing and they easily found us a table. You get a key to the front door so if you come back after the pub has closed you let yourself in through the empty bar which was a cool experience. Helpful staff, nice varied breakfast options. Loved it.

A most enjoyable stay at the Hope and Anchor, room was clean and comfortable, one or two minor points in the bathroom but nothing that spoilt our stay in the lovely location, we had dinner in the restaurant and the food was really nice as was the Northumbrian breakfast

Comfortable room. Customer service poor.

Super room and excellent evening meal. No parking onsite which we did know as we had researched it so we spent a time looking for a space in the village . We entered the hotel at a minute to 5 pm and I immediately tried to order some drinks on Happy Hour menu ( 3-5 pm) as it was my husband’s Birthday and he had driven a long distance. However we were told flatly that it was too late. No apologies or explanations despite the fact that it was before 5 pm when I asked. Customer service with the staff was much to be desired apart from our waitress for the evening meal who was lovely. On check out there was no Goodbye or checking if we had enjoyed ourselves!

Loved the location but room on the small side, walls thin so I was kept awake by snoring and phone alerts on one side and the noise of a dog on the other.
