"Hotel was very clean, staff were helpful and friendly. Location was perfect and the view from our window was lovely. Only negative I have was that the shower water was cold and the water only came through as a trickle. Apart from that I had lovely stay and it was value for money and would definitely stay again."

Cambria Hotel

Cambria Hotel

📍 32 Esplanade Rd, Paignton
★★★ 6.7 (24 reviews)

"I am not fussy but this place should be closed down. The people seem nice but they obviously don't really care about the hotel or guests, or they would clean. The bathroom was truly disgusting and had not been cleaned for years. Black mould was around the taps. Shower was full of various ***** hairs and the base was black. Obviously th carpets, furniture and fittings were over 50;years old but there is no excuse for the filthy bathroom. I felt dirtier after having a shower there."

Torbay Court Hotel Hotels in Paignton

Torbay Court Hotel

"We had a really lovely stay at the Torbay Court Hotel and would happily return. The location is ideal and just a short stroll to the beach and close to all the local shops and amenities. It made a great base for getting out and about around Paignton and the surrounding area. From the moment we arrived, Steve and the rest of the team made us feel genuinely welcome. They were friendly, attentive, and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. There was even a DJ on the first evening, which created a great atmosphere and got the trip off to a fun start. Breakfast was enjoyable, with a decent variety of options. The staff were always cheerful and helpful, which really added to the overall experience. A special mention has to go to Steve, he was fantastic throughout our stay, always approachable and happy to help with anything. Overall, it was a warm and relaxing break. If we were to be picky, a slightly broader breakfast selection would have been the cherry on top — but everything else was spot on. We’d definitely recommend it to others."

Mercure Paignton Hotel ★★★★
"We have stayed there before and we are pleased with the room (a couple and a young child in the double room with sofabed) size is decent, not huge but enough room for us. Clean, friendly staff and £15 a day for parking (EV charging at their car park). There is also an outdoor public carpark at the end of the road for about £10 for 24 hours if the hotel carpark is full (we did have to park there, a few mins walk)"

Cambria Hotel ★★★
"On arrival the gentleman at reception was very nice. It just went downhill from there. As we went to our room, the banisters were black. The room size was good, but the bedding had stains on it and the furniture and skirting boards were dirty. The bathroom was narrow and there was grime around the taps. I didn't even attempt to use the kettle, I didn't want to. It didn't feel nice there. It's such a shame as the location is great, a stones throw from the beach, but I have never stayed anywhere so dirty."

Ibis Styles Paignton ★★★
"It's hard to review this time because booking was moved to the Mercure next door. I understand why but I do prefer the Ibis. NOTE this review relates to Mercure Paignton. Staff friendly and welcoming and though room had everything I needed it was dark. The privacy panel on the window and the dark furniture made it too dark for me. Am not a black and gold person, prefer light and bright. That being said facilities were great, bed very comfortable and show hot and powerful. One downside was TV remote, had a nightmare and needed to 'Google' to work out how to use it. I didnt eat onsite."

Premier Inn Paignton (Goodrington Sands) ★★★
"love this hotel location. visit every year. could do face lift ,but 3 of us visited for 3 nights and we had breakfast and walked the coastal path. return to hotel and sat with a drink on the hotel front and relaxed in the sun. what changes are coming nobody seems to know, but if they lose the hotel bar and food during the day, it will be a big loss. Concourse and lawned areas make this hotel."

Beach Hotel Torbay B&B ★★
"Although the standard twin bed room we occupied is quite small, it is well decorated, has modern furniture and is spotlessly clean. There is a recent shower unit, a TV, a fan, and tea and coffee making facilities. There are twin electrical sockets and 4 USB outlets adjacent to each bed. While the window looks along the coast rather than directly out to sea, the view is very pleasant. The English breakfast was good, and the manager, Adam, very helpful. There is parking on a hard-standing at the side of the hotel. The sea and pier are close by, and the main shopping area is walkable. Overall we enjoyed our stay a lot. Two constructive suggestions are (1) a shelf in the bathroom for toiletries which won't stand on top of the curved sink, and (2) provision of a toilet brush."

"Just a short step from the beach, town centre, and public transport. A lovely stay. Owners Alan, Emma, and Sybil can’t do enough to ensure your stay is everything you wish for. The room was light and comfortable. Pound for pound incredible value and the best stay in Paignton."
