The Esplanade Hotel is an old fashioned hotel that has somewhat fallen into a bad state of repair…read more Paint was faded and wall paper had started to peel of the walls. The rooms were small and the bathroom a disgrace. You could not turn around. The hotel was a maze of corridors and lifts was dodgy and you could barely fit 2 people in it. The standard of cleaning was poor. The staff on the other hand were nice, friendly and helpful. The dining room was waiter service but the hours of eating were very limited. The food itself was quite acceptable but portions were small. this was not immediately apparent as the food was served on small plates. From our experience this is hotel to avoid.It was in its a favourable location on the seafront and only a few minutes walk to all of Paignton's amenities.The Hotel entertainment was a low standard. Bingo most nights followed by a live entertainer Because of the design of the hotel we would suggest it is not suitable for the disabled.

Beautiful hotel and grounds I've stayed here twice 1St time staying here my room was gorgeous…read morefancy cream deco matching furniture lovely bed clean hard to remember I was staying in a hotel room second door outside so once closed even quieter maybe just 5 rooms on this corridor but on second stay not so good as I was given a room next to the kitchens and my only window was opposite the kitchen which consistently smelled of food being prepared the staff are young and noisy there radios blasting loud most of the time and at one point I was accused of smoking weed of all things I'm assuming it was one of the kitchen staff guys had a issue with me staying there maybe his wages doesn't stretch enough to stay here who knows as I had no problem before so was a totally different experience this time around which is a shame They also have a leisure centre on the grounds gym swimming pool sauna steam excellent which local residents go

I've been there in 2010 for one week. That is the best bed & breakfast family-run hotel I have ever…read moreseen before and after (so that one year later I do remember how good that was). The hosts were very friendly and helpful; they have even laundered my clothes for free (on request, of course). The English breakfast was delicious and nutritious (+3kg of body weight for 1 week). Location is good for Paignton - close to the sea/ocean (1-2 min walking) and to a bus station. Though, it is a bit far (for walking) from the attractions of Torquay, but you can take a bus or drive yourself.

From the owner: The Carrington is a 3 Star, family run Guest House that is nicely positioned 100 yards from…read morePaignton seafront and less than 100 yards from Paignton town centre. Along the seafront you can find resteraunts, bars and the multiplex cinema and in the town centre you can find a variety of shops for all your personal needs, as well as the railway and coach stations that are but a 2 minute walk from the Guest House.

This is probably the best hotel to stay in Totnes. If its not the best in terms of facilities,…read moreservice etc. then it is definitely the best for location. Sited in the main high street of Totnes and centre of attention with 3 different types of eatery (Bar, coffee shop, main restaurant) and outside chairs for those sunny days. The decor is clearly not the most modern but they manage to make that the charm of the place and anyway a clinical / sterile place would not work in Totnes anyway. Food is good at all locations and the rooms are spacious / clean and well equipped. Pricing is up to £139 for the main(Agatha Christie) suite including Jacuzzi but normal rooms are much cheaper. Wifi is in all rooms but i could not get to work using iphone or WM device but laptop was fine A great place to have as your base for a break in this area.

I have eaten at this hotel several times over the last ten years - whenever my family and I visit…read moreTotnes. We went last night and the food was horrible. The staff make you feel as if you're somehow ruining their evening - and the dinners (all six) were bland and almost inedible. I know this place has struggled at times over the years, but making customers feel bad about coming to your restaurant is not the way to get any return business. My advice? Avoid at all costs!

This B+B has a great location, on a relatively quiet street, but right near the front and the main…read morestreets of Paignton. The rooms in particular are very nice. The lovely landlady will feed you up if you are not careful! I was having extra food foisted upon me all the time. She is very chatty too. Initially the grumpy Londener, that I have become in the 10 years in this city was bothered by this; I just wanted to sit, eat and slowly wake up. That's my problem though and I soon came round! I needed an hour between breakfast and leaving the hotel though, I was so full!
