What a lovely gem of a place this is. We were made to feel very welcome. The room we had was lovely, small but we knew that when we booked. The bed was comfortable and the towels were better than we have had in the bigger named hotels we've stayed at. We only stayed for one night but are already planning a return visit.

We really enjoyed our stay ...our family room was perfect.. with beautiful views of the sea...and Gary couldn't be more helpful when I messaged him regarding the check in times..he allowed us to check in early as we were attending my fathers funeral...making a difficult day so much easier..so very grateful to them for putting themselves out...highly recommend this lovely hotel!

Superb!
The hotel was just lovely and good value for money. I stayed here for a short birthday break with my husband and daughter. It was very clean and breakfast was perfect and piping hot when served. I would recommend it to anyone. Gary was a lovely host

Nice hotel, would stay again.
Only issues were no soap in either dispensers, and bed wasn’t very comfy but I guess that’s a personal preference. Room was also hot but we had our own fan.

Great value for money
We booked last minute, wanting a couple of nights away in Paignton so we could get the steam train to Kingswear. James and Gary were very friendly hosts. The hotel was just what we needed, excellent value for money and really clean and comfortable. We had a good breakfast for and additional cost and the bar was a bonus. The hotel is a 10 minute walk to the station with the pier being very close and the harbour within walking distance.

Fab little hotel in a great location!
Clean & tidy room, could do with a larger bed in a family room as the kids tend to want to pile in when not sleeping in their own beds but appreciate there isn’t much space. Check in easy, great location. Lovely little garden out the front. Plenty of tea and biscuits! Would recommend :)

Had a midweek stay for 2 nights in late July. Pleasant reception from Lee on arrival, who went through the basic "need-to-knows". Hotel was clean, the staff were friendly, and the breakfast good. The Preston Festival was on with a Fun Fair almost opposite the hotel, the music from this was quite, but turned off by 10.15. Good location for exploring this part of Devon, and we enjoyed our stay.

Excellent - A must stay
We had an amazing experience here, so much so we booked again on check out. The room was spacious, clean and our sea view was excellent. We were very lucky that the air show was on and we were in the best spot. James was fantastic, welcoming and extremely helpful. Both James and Gary even put on a complementary BBQ for all guests which we thought was very generous. Definitely the place to stay if you’re visiting the area!

Great hotel and service
We had a great stay the view was amazing and the service incredible. Parking is very limited so we parked at a long stay for our first night and there was a space in the morning so moved the car to the free parking. The hotel was central to everything so we didn’t use the car as good places to eat within walking distance. We will 100% stay again though we may train next time as only a few minutes walk from the train station

A great place to stay - right on the beachfront
Really great customer service - offered more pillows/blankets/towels if we needed them. The room was a good size, and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom was a little small (knees hit the door when on the toilet), the toilet door didn't close properly and the shower didn't hear up the second time we used it. However, it was all really well looked after and clean. The tea/coffee station under the TV was a great addition. Breakfast was great - I forgot to mention I was vegetarian, but there was still a lot with the hot food I could eat and the continental had a good selection. The parking is right outside the side of the building. It was easy to find and the spaces were roomy. Overall, our stay was really great! The issues with the bathroom door not closing fully and the shower not heating up the second time were really the only issues we had. If we come back to Paignton, we'll be looking at staying here again! Recommended to all friends and family as an ideal place to stay - right by the beach and the pier.

One night stay at Paignton
Very close to the beach, shops and bars/restaurants. A lovely breakfast in the morning which allowed me to get on with my day without having to search for a cafe. The staff were very welcoming and made me feel very safe as I was on my own (a lady traveller).
