The Gissons Hotel

Not for me. Bit tired and decorated over, noisy on main road, behind a petrol station and adjacent to abondone building lot dark tatty car park . Owner very pleasant but bar/ restaurant closed for re-furbishment. Room small and bathroom needed attention. Shower screen hanging off and difficult to use. Bottle of cheap handwash on sink

The property is abounded no one live or works they.

Good hotel for the price. Room was clean and had the basics. Only downside it was quite noisy at night being next to a main road. Other than that it was a pleasant stay

Great little place.

Cheap, warm, polite service, warm shower, nice fluffy towels.

Left my watch in the room which they willl have found, rang them as soon as I realised left message and have rang over ten times with no answer. Have reported to police

very disappointing, looks very run down from the outside, photos are obviously from better times. Restaurant shut down and derelict, room clean but basic with lino floor and tiny shower. Only positive was the convenient location from the M5

Room only, not restaurant or food on site and limited opption. Next to Devon expressway so a bit of road noise.

Our room was really nice - large and spacious with a refurbished bathroom, but there was no food available at all. We did though have a lovely meal at the local pub.

Thank you we had overnight stop Staff are very helpful

Room was fine but hotel was very strange with no staff on duty or working bar/restaurant.

The stay was perfectly fine, and the staff were friendly. Hotel is in need of some TLC or investment however. The restaurant and bar area is currently closed, and when we were there, there was minimal staff. Has a lot of potential to be a great place for accessing the rest of Devon area.

Marvellous stay, would remembered always.

Ample parking spaces but no breakfast option

Convenient for A38

There was no food available which was inconvenient but mainly there was no bar !!! Or rather there was a bar but it wasn’t open. We weren’t made aware of this at the time of booking & it was a massive inconvenience. We were using the hotel as a base to travel far & wide revisiting some of the places we went on honeymoon thirty four years ago as it was our anniversary week. After each day travelling it would have been nice get back to the hotel & relax with a few drinks. As it was we had to settle for buying alcohol locally & having it in our room so as not to drink & drive. Hardly romantic. Our room was a good size & everything was clean & tidy. The location & views leave a little to be desired but the main issue was not to be forewarned that there was no functioning bar. That was unforgivable.

I didn't realise the hotel was being renovated and had no amenities, this wasn't clear on the booking site. As it was late evening and I was a solo female I felt like I wouldn't feel safe walking down the road to get drink/snacks, so I think even if the place is being renovated it still needs something for visitors to buy if they need something. The carpark looked very dodgy and as a first impression it wasn't great. On a positive note when I arrived the man at the desk was very polite and helpful, check in was simple. The room was average, a bit dated and quite small. The bedside table light didn't work so it was a choice of ceiling spotlights or darkness. The TV worked fine. Internet was good. Bed was not very comfy and certainly wasnt as described in the hotel listing. There was constant road noise from the motorway outside but I drowned it out with the 3 fans that were in the room! I probably wouldn't stay again. My photos won't attach on this site for some reason so I don't think they want people to know about the rooms!!

Stayed before & like the decor of the hotel. From check in to check out no problems or complaints other than bed a bit hard. Ample parking.

Great service , functional clean room , great for a value over night stay

Very clean. Nice people
