As standard, all our rooms include flat screen TVs, fast WiFi, personal fridge*, telephone, ironing facilities and in wardrobe safes.
High quality beds and luxury linen ensure a relaxing night’s sleep, as do the double-glazed windows which open to allow all that fresh sea air in or close to bring silence to your room. Controlled lighting and blackout curtains in each room complete the Do-Not-Disturb experience!
Bathrooms are ensuite and designed to a high specification, with many benefiting from under floor heating to ensure the ultimate cosy bathroom experience. Whether showering or indulging in a bubble-filled bath, our fully tiled finishes ensure efficiency of cleaning and even higher standards of hygiene.
In summer 2023 we opened new family style rooms in the west wing of our building. Each room has a generous bathroom, a double bed plus a set of bunk beds, each with a single sized mattress. So great for room sharing too!
The Carlton has a choice of accessible rooms, spacious and customised, with provisions for carers to stay in the room (or adjacently) with adapted wet rooms. There is step free access throught the hotel.

Very Enjoyable Stay
We had a very comfortable stay at the Carlton this week. The King room was spacious, with modern décor and very clean. The bed was huge! Everything was provided and the staff were friendly and pleasant to talk to. The food in the Brasserie was very good, really nice choice of breakfasts and the yummy dinner menu made it difficult to choose! It is a 5 minute walk from the town centre and also a good base to visit places around Ilfracombe. Would definitely stay again.
