"Nice big family bedroom, bottles of water in the mini fridge. Keith the owner was nice. Breakfast was lovely, order what you want the night before. Downside the stairs were very steep and was on the top floor."
"My second visit. Off road parking, a really nice place to stay. Clean & comfortable. Could be even better with soft lighting but overall safe quiet & comfortable. "

We use Paignton as our base of operations. We dedicate a couple of days to Paignton itself, take the steam train and have a day in Dartmouth, take the bus to Brixham for the day and usually visit the zoo. There are great walks all around.

Typical seaside town with lots of tacky shops for the tourists. Lots of dining options, lots for kids to do/play areas by the sea front. Still love the trains going through the centre and stopping the shoppers when they pass through.

"Beautiful hotel on sea front was close to the pier and other attractions such as Paignton zoo, variety of pubs and restaurants for dining. Overall a great experience for the kids and convenient for the parents or any couple wanting a sea side holiday. "
"Arrived and greeted by the most incredibly kind staff. They really couldnt have given us any more to make us feel welcome. Want to give a huge thanks to Robin on reception. My husband has a neck injury and the staff even offered to get pain medications from the local Pharmacist for us.
The food in 1881 resturant within the grand hotel was delicious and served by Felix. What a kind gentleman he was also. Even making my young boy happy by giving him free mocktails!
Both inside and outsoor pools area great addition to our stay, the breakfast is tasty and always left each morning with full bellies. We will definitely be coming back. We were so sad to leave today. Thank you all for a wonderful stay "
"We had a very comfortable stay at the hotel and were impressed with the facilities and friendly staff. We returned for the 2nd time having also enjoyed our first stay. Love the views of Torbay and the internal architecture and furnishings of the hotel. It was a shame that the outdoor pool was closed but enjoyed the indoor pool / spa facilities."
"The rooms were clean and well serviced. The bed was solid and comfy. The staff were very helpful. I saw people have had issues with the water pressure in the showers. I waited about twenty seconds for the pump to kick in and it was a great shower.
Comments about the walls being thin. On the first night I had nightmare neighbours. But Steve promptly dealt with them and no more noise. Simples. I was there for 5 nights. Had different, more courteous neighbours during the rest of my stay. No issues. Cheers guys. I'll see you again if working in the area. 👍. Keep up the good work. Damian "
