Big problems at check in but this was actually trip.coms faulty for not confirming booking with hotel.
Trip.com happy to take my money first had to complaint against trip.com the compensated me but with a fight.
Location good you get breakfast included don't expect anything special. Like no round eggs.
Torquay is quite expensive so alcohol and drinks prices at the hotel high.
You can walk to marina in 5 minutes.
No car parking so if you want parking be prepared to walk
The hotel and area was fantastic, however, service at the front desk and the restaurant was lacking.
We took a long weekend break and were excited to try the beach club, however our experience was dampened by the service.
Being made to stand around for 5 minutes, whilst being told we hadn't paid (when we had) was unnecessary and frankly embarrassing.
The restaurant was the most disappointing part of the stay.
I'm the evening service was slow, followed by having our order wrong twice and also dropped.
Breakfast at the restaurant was lacking compared to cheaper hotels that offer continental. Small selection , nothing outstanding. When we ordered a cooked breakfast, it took 30-40 minutes to receive some eggs and pancakes although the restaurant was fairly quiet.
However, the room, facilities, and the spa were fantastic. Beautiful and comfortable rooms. The beach club outside was gorgeous. The spa was perfect and treatments were, to quote my partner, 'one of the best massages of my life'.
We're unsure if we would come back. Although the facilities were great, the service was mostly subpar and not what we'd expect from a harbour hotel.
Another wonderful stay.
Reception staff warm and friendly.
Upgraded to a sea view suite, lovely views over the bay, what a view to wake up to.
Huge selection of fresh breakfast food, waiting staff very friendly and attentive.
Location is fantastic a few minutes walk down the hill to the harbour.
Our 2nd stay at this hotel this year, 5 stays in total.
I am a frequent returning guest.
The hotel is situated at bottom end of Totnes main street. It is a busy hotel and bar, serving food. The building is old with one central staircase leading to rooms. All the rooms I have occupied are very clean, decorated in a tasteful way and the beds are comfortable.. Teas are good quality Tea Pigs a small coffee machine is also provided, plus a bottle of water.
I am a coeliac and vegetarian. Eating in other hotels is almost impossible,they simply do not cater for my dietary requirements,thankfully I am guaranteed a delicious breakfast here.
One of the most important reasons for returning here is the customer service. The staff here are really approachable and friendly. Any issue you may have regarding your stay, they will do their best to help you resolve.
T have stayed in other hotels etc if there aren't any vacancies here but from my experience if you like a relaxed friendly environment, lovely rooms, location Totnes as a base, then this is the place to come .
It is also a short walk away from the most beautiful cinema I've ever been in, which is tucked away, along the main high street,
My only wish is that more free parking was available . The hotel offers capacity for approx 6 cars at the rear of the hotel. There is plenty of paid parking in main street and nearby Morrisons.
This is the third time I have stayed. I remember the first time I came to study with my girlfriend 10 years ago. I stood on the balcony of the top river view room and looked at the rare golden sand beach and estuary scenery in Britain. I also came with my parents afterward. This is the most distinctive room I have ever stayed in the UK. I highly recommend the river view room on the top floor. Absolutely great value for money.
1. The location is excellent and the English Channel can be seen in the room. The hotel is also 100 meters from the beach.
2. The booked room has breakfast and dinner, breakfast is almost the same as breakfast elsewhere. But dinner is good (ordered for £20 separately), pre-dinner, dinner and dessert
3. The room is average, if the twin bed is small, each bed is not big
Good

Great
GGuest UserIt's a good hotel, nice attendances, location and clean.
But we weren't encouraged to pay £16 each for breakfast. It was very sparsely stocked, with no cheese or ham, few scrambled eggs, and the room wasn't clean, with food scraps on the floor.
However, we did have a great breakfast at the Stoke Village Cafe, which I recommend.
SSantha_RoyLovely place with peacocks roaming around. We had a wonderful stay but the washroom was bit a drawback. No shower curtains or shower head in the washroom. There was a stand in shower but unfortunately our shower doesn't had a good heating system, so we couldn't use it. Washrooms needs to be improved.
GGuest User29/04/2025. We have been to the cliffden hotel three times and had a club room on the first floor they were nice large rooms but this time we were on the second floor our room was very small and claustrophobic nothing like the photos in the booking . We asked for a different room and the man at reception said see me tomorrow morning and if there's a larger room you can have it. Later on in the day my partner went to reception to book a table for an evening meal for us. While she was booking the table the lady at the reception said there were no other rooms you can have. The barman was very polite nice to chat to. We only had one meal in the evening cod and chips could not find much cod it was all batter. Other meal gammon and chips gammon would be good to repair your soles on your shoes. Go to the local chip shop absolutely beautiful. We used the indoor swimming pool which was nice and clean. The gardens are lovely, and the beer is very expensive. Go to the jolly sailor pub with drinks at good prices. Reception is not very helpful. I can't understand why the hotel puts people with dogs on the second floor because when the dog wants to go to the toilet by the time you get down to the entrance the dog has already peed on the carpets. Luckily our dog can hold her pee and she is small enough to carry.I have followed other people with their dogs and seen it. Overall we were very disappointed with our stay this time.
GGuest UserThe hotel itself was nice; can’t fault it. Our room however, had a weird, stale smell and was off-putting, with no way to ventilate the room by opening the windows, as you cannot open them - A/C is not a natural ventilation.
Bed was comfortable, slept perfectly fine, just not nice waking up with the smell, as mentioned before.
Breakfast was good, although I’ve had better.

GGuest UserThe hotel is in a good location for a city centre stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Reception excellent. Bar staff excellent, restaurant staff excellent.
The room was very clean and well laid out. Tea and coffee making in the room. Bed was very comfortable. The room was cleaned during our visit, bed made, cups replaced, etc.
We were on the 5th floor and the lift was always available, although it was quiet.
We ate at the hotel on the first night and the food was very tasty with quite a good selection, as well as a good selection of drinks at the bar. We were advised of a special offer if we joined the Leonardo Advantage Club of 15% off drinks and food, when paying off a tab which really helped.
We booked a breakfast for the first morning. Breakfast is buffet style with all sorts of juices, coffee, cereals, yoghurts, etc. It was a very good selection for this size of hote. Breakfast was served between 7:00am and 11:00 am and our only criticism was that when we got to breakfast at 10:00am, some of the hot buffet items were warm going on cold. We were told that this was a problem with the hotplates but we felt that the hot food should have been checked more thoroughly. To the hotels credit, we were compensated for the breakfast problem.
All in all we had a great 2 night stay and would stay at this hotel again.
