Breakfast is very restricted only to few options...from menu you must choose...order.....you cannot go yourself like a normal hotel when you pay for breakfast included, is fresh painted but you can see in the bathroom stain of mold on the sealing, mattress is old instead have a great staff, free parking ( first come-last come....you must search around 😅🙄 the property), pool ( maximum 10 person's aloud-1h ... pre booked ) , location is close to the beach, pub's, restaurants...is ok . I was but i will search another place next time . 10/10 for staff 👍. I give this review because I'm very disappointed regarding breakfast options 1/10 and mattress.

Offered room at front of hotel, very noisy with traffic. Moved to a room over the kitchens, even noisier. Someone throwing chips down for seagulls, after midnight. Delivery vans arriving before 6.00 am right outside my room. Talking and unloading.
Cooked breakfast was very poor, breakfast not very warm, cold beans, burnt toast and very small helpings. Won't be staying again!!
Booked a double room, upgraded on the 4th floor family room?.Too noisy, allocated next to a lift shaft which generated noise late evening and early morning. Reception not very helpful at check-in, issue with deposit on booking with Expedia.
Very pleasant staff. Above and beyond as I struggled to park.
Food is delicious.

We booked last minute as an impromptu trip and were very well accommodated from start to finish, staff were all amazing and the entertainment for our 2 nights was wonderful, our room was very clean and the facilities were good, we booked a swimming spot and the pool though not very big was good and the water was warm, we even had a good win on the bingo so great all round, if you’re looking for a place to stay in Paignton I can’t recommend enough, will definitely be back

We had unfortunately a very noisy couple in the room adjoining ours, we only managed to get about five hours sleep over two nights, even though we reported them to reception, apparently they had trouble with them before, so why let them stay a second time, it completely ruined our stay at the hotel, which was a shame as the rest of the hotel was good.
Staff were very friendly and welcoming. There was a singer that evening and despite being on the 3rd floor the niose kept us awake until very late. The room was clean although it had a very strange smell, like stale cigarette smoke. The bed was comfy though. Only a small bath with built in seat, so we werent able to lie down and have a proper soak which was disappointing after a 4 our journey, and the bathroom could do with a deep clean as the glass shelf was very dirty with soap or bubble bath residue, and it was a bit grubby. Overall quite adequate for our one night stay.
Absolutely wonderful stay! So good we extended for an extra night!!
Lovely little indoor pool, lovely spacious restaurant and separate bar/entertainment area. Nice sitting room area with pool table, fruit machines puzzles and boardgames. There's also a television and comfy seating.
The staff are all fabulous, altho my son, Archie has asked me to give a shout out to Jamie for being "AMAZING at everything!!"
Arch's grandad lives in Paignton and its now "the law" that we stay at the Queens Hotel every time we come.
The room was great, clean and tidy, the bathroom light didn't work, but we didn't need it and we managed, overall great
