Top hotels in West Hoe
Harmony Court by Pureserviced
Facilities were well organised and everything was as described. Bed was comfortable. Only downside wife me was that the carpet needs a clean, it is getting sticky under foot. Otherwise all good.

Copthorne Hotel Plymouth
The staff are very welcoming. The food was very nice and surprisingly not expensive. The bed was very comfortable. The internet was strong. All areas of the hotel seemed very clean. The only negative I can think of, is the carpet and the bathroom in the bedroom was a little dated but very clean.
