Lovely old hotel with good facilities.

Lovely old hotel that would have been very grand in its day, but is still clean and comfortable with good facilities. Swimming pool was lovely to use after a days walking the SW coast path. Breakfast was lovely with excellent views from the dining room across the bay of Paignton. Room was clean and comfortable, but i would say if you can run to it, book a sea view room (we didn't), because we peeped into one and they appear to have been renovated and have the most amazing views across the bay. The only criticism would be that the bed was how I would imagine a mortuary slab to feel, it was rock hard!

Oozes Old World Character

This is a glorious hotel that is full of character and old world elegance. It’s best days may be gone but it is still a charming place to stay in a great location. The sea view was spectacular and the indoor pool very nice. The room was small but comfortable and the staff delightful.

Lovely stay at this beautiful hotel, loved the history and grandness of this old hotel, makes a change from modern ones, with lovely bay views . Fantastic breakfast with very good waiter service in a room overlooking the sea. Room very clean with view of sea and pier. Only problem was toilet flush stopped working, and needed fixing, but would stay here again

Great location

The location is absolutely stunning. Only issue is there was no air con so incredibly hot on the heat wave and for some reason the dog friendly wing of the building was incredibly hot? The rest of the building was cool. The food was ok. Staff were excellent. The pool was such a great asset but was super dirty every morning (some dried weetabix left on the poolside the 3 days we were there). The building was really tired and it’s really not disabled friendly at all. If you were disabled I don’t think you could get anywhere really. A cool hidden tunnel underneath leads you to its own like private beach - super super cool. Wasn’t told about this or anything else about the hotel or local area throughout our stay. Would I stay there again? Maybe if I didn’t have a dog and it was a cooler/ none of my party were concerned about cleanliness. I wouldn’t eat there again. Would definitely have beers out overlooking the sea though, that’s beautiful.
