It is very outdated however the staff service is excellent, it' has friendly clientele and the views to Scarborough harbour are amazing ##### Townsley Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Rita 1 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Love the location of the hotel and the view. Was disappointed to find no hairdryer in the room and furniture definitely needs updating, but despite that, very clean and comfortable. ##### Rita Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Jenny 31 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service It was cheap, perfectly located and very clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and we managed to get a space in the car park which was a bonus, although there is on-street parking nearby. It’s dated and some of the fixtures and fittings are cheap and a bit worse for wear. That is all reflected in the price though, and the place is exceptionally clean and comfortable. We also had a lovely big room with lovely views over the South Bay and the town. If you want luxury, don’t come here - it’s a hotel catering for the over-60’s coach trip client, with bingo or other entertainment on an evening. Breakfast is OK although a bit cramped and the heating was on in the dining room in August, so it was rather warm. There’s also no proper coffee - you get a flask of hot water with Nescafé sachets - but the bacon and sausages were of good quality and the service was good. It was fine for one night and is in a great location. ##### Jenny Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Miss H 3 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### All good and happy All good. Very happy with my stay. Cgeck in quick and easy. Late checkout discussed and happy with the 12 oclock offer. Comfortable hotel. Bathroom could do with an update but it was fine for a quick one night stop over. Brilliant sea view. Friendly staff. ##### Miss H Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Sandra 22 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Check-in was fine. We were booked on a B&B basis via Expedia . This was confirmed on check-in but was later challenged by the second receptionist . Expedia had not confirmed the breakfast option. All was ok in the end. The hotel was well located and such an easy walk to the seafront or into the main town. A basic room with all that we needed for our two night stay. I would stay again for the location. ##### Sandra Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Laura 8 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Me and my daughter stayed for 1 night, it’s overall a really nice hotel to stay at if your in Scarborough. The only thing we didn’t like was the walk from Scarborough seafront to the hotel, its a little to much for a 3yr olds little legs and didn’t realise you could walk over the bridge to get esplanade’s so unfortunately took the long way around. But other than that the overall stay was great staff was really friendly and you get what you pay for. ##### Laura Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nikki 1 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities From the moment we arrived at The Esplanade Hotel, we felt embraced by its warm, welcoming atmosphere. Perched on Paignton’s famous seafront, the hotel offers stunning panoramic views of Tor Bay—best enjoyed from the elegant lounge or the comfort of a sea-facing room. Our room was impeccably clean, spacious, and tastefully decorated in coastal hues. Soft linens, thoughtful amenities, and blackout curtains guaranteed a restful night’s sleep, while the private balcony became our go-to spot for morning coffee and golden sunrise vistas. Service here is nothing short of outstanding. Every team member—from reception to housekeeping and the bar—greeted us with genuine smiles and took the time to anticipate our needs. Special dietary requests at breakfast were handled swiftly, and the full Devonshire spread (local sausages, freshly baked pastries, and home-made marmalade) set us up perfectly for beach walks and town explorations. The hotel’s on-site brasserie serves modern British cuisine that cleverly showcases regional produce. We savored beautifully presented dishes—like seared scallops and Devon lamb—paired with a carefully curated wine list. After dinner, the bar’s live piano sessions struck just the right note for a relaxed evening. Location couldn’t be more ideal: direct beach access, a short stroll to Paignton Pier, and easy links to the steam railway and coastal trail. Yet despite its central spot, the Esplanade remains a haven of calm, where attentive service and though ##### Nikki Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Stephen 24 Aug 2024 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Room was small but adequate, but the amazing views from both windows certainly made up for it. Room was not dirty but lots of old cobwebs hanging from ceiling and fluffy dust on lights. Beds were a bit uncomfortable due to thin mattresses (maybe time to replace with better quality). Bathroom was clean but a little cramped. But ........ Despite the somewhat negative comments, we will definitely return to this hotel as we really enjoyed our stay. The stay was made all the better for the attentiveness of the staff who were so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommend. ##### Stephen Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Arturas 5 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities great view great location great breakfasts ##### Arturas Stayed 1 night in Sep 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Christine 21 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### A nice stay This hotel is a little tired and date, the rooms could do with being refurbished and having new furniture but I do love the location, views and ease of parking. ##### Christine Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### john 15 Jun 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### would'nt have booked if known builders were in It is a good idea to let people know construction work is going on, Building materials in the corridors, builders using 4 parking spots out of only 14 ? ##### john Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 6 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Weekend break Met and exceeded all our expectations. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 23 Aug 2024 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities The staff were friendly and helpful but the bathroom was in a very bad condition.

Hôtel désuet, en rénovations mais vraiment en décrépitude. Chambre supérieure non conforme aux photos. Impossible de voir la vue sur la mer comme annoncé car la fenêtre est en décrépitude et la vitre opaque. Télévision non fonctionnel. Plafonds ouverts. Ne vaut pas le prix du tout. Literies neuve et propre. Hôtel avec potentiel mais non actuel et vraiment tombé en ruines. ##### Melissa Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul 17 Oct 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort All the staff were very helpful, especially the manager Ryan (I think his name was) nothing was too much trouble ##### Paul Stayed 1 night in Oct 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 22 Aug 2021 The hotel seems very dated, quite shabby in parts. Really good location and would be fabulous if the hotel was up to standard. Beds very comfortable but the wooden window frames were rickety and shabby. Old bathroom too with very dated decor. The bedroom furniture had seen better days too. The reception staff were very friendly though which made our introduction to the hotel very nice. With an update this hotel could be one of the best in Scarborough. Fabulous views! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 19 Aug 2021 Liked: Amenities Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Property in a great location, just our room needs a lot of TLC.
