Southern Cross Guest House

10/10 Excellent
"I booked a last minute stay at this cosy B&B. We were greeted kindly by the host when we arrived and shown to our room. We stayed in a room which used a shared shower and toilet and had no issues with this, we didn’t see anyone else until breakfast! Breakfast (full English) was really tasty and set us up for the day. Would recommend to people who are looking for a cosy stay."

"We requested an upgrade to a delux double room, we also requested to have well done bacon and this was granted for breakfast as the ones provided were not as we would have liked. Staff were very very helpful staff, spa staff lovely and helpful. Reception staff lovely, first impression great. Bar staff great. Evening meal lovely food and staff great, this is the second time we've stayed at the Imperial, I do recommend it and would stay again. They are refurbishing the hotel so some areas done and and a lot more to do as a very large hotel, pool is lovely, steam and jacuzzi amazing. So yes all amazing. All good. Nice place to stay."

8/10 Good
"I would like to have given the Sidmouth Harbour Hotel 5 stars. However, I have only given it 4 stars because the main hotel description on Expedia is inaccurate. It says "this hotel sits directly on a pebble beach....". It does not. It is situated about 3 minutes walk from the beach, 75 feet above sea level on the adjacent hillside. I pointed this error out to the receptionist, who agreed the description is incorrect. But it has not been changed. In all other respects, the hotel met our expectations. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The food at breakfast and dinner was very good. I particularly enjoyed the pianist playing the piano during Sunday lunch. I recommend this hotel to couples who are looking for a luxurious stay."

8/10 Good
"Great location, right on the seafront. Staff are absolutely lovely. Hotel is very clean and seems to be freshly decorated, although in a rather dated style that perhaps caters more to the average age of the clientele. Breakfast is served at the table, rather than a buffet. The hotel suggests a jacket and tie in the restaurant for dinner, so it’s quite formal. Room was super clean and the bathroom bright, clean and clinical. Bed was very soft and bouncy. It was a very pleasant stay but, despite being in my 50s, I couldn’t help feeling that we were lowering the average age by about 20 years."
