Overall I had a great four night stay. The restaurant/bar/lounge are lovely period rooms with great sea views. All the staff were very helpful (and mainly English). In the bedroom it was good that the windows could be opened (unlike in a lot of modern hotels). I'm very sensitive to noise but it was nice and quiet. A lot of the other hotels are on busy roads. The gym was average - fairly old equipment and didn't seem that clean. But a good sized room. However there were no exercise mats so had to lie on the carpet. Finally, minor complaint about breakfast but the vegetarian sausages were not good (they were basically tasteless deep fried vegetables) - most hotels serve quorn or soya sausages (which taste better and have some protein)

Lovely hotel

We have a lovey beach view room it had everything we needed, breakfast was lovely freshly made, the table with yogurts fruit and cereal was always well stocked up, staff were very friendly and helpful. We had an email few days before saying there was a function on the night we got there but didn't hear a thing from them. Hotel was only a short walk from shops pubs etc. We would definitely stay again.

Very dated hotel dark and dingy our room was disgusting. The bed was so uncomfortable. I asked for a mattress stopper and they put on a mattress protection. She did nothing at all the outside pool that was disgusting. I know it was closed but there was a pigeon droppings everywhere Staff were fantastic. Very polite food was okay nothing special.

The hotel is situated in a fantastic location but it’s tired and need a lift. The hotel is closing down for a revamp and I’m sure it will make a fantastic difference but it for me is ideal for what we want.

This is our 4th visit to the Redcliffe and we generally enjoy our stay as the staff and the service they give is always very good. The rooms are clean and comfortable, although we have noticed that they are becoming a bit tired and could do with some renovation. We know there are plans to do alterations in the coming months but also hope that it keeps it character. The food is always good , especially the breakfast, and the staff are always very attentive.

The Hotel was an excellent building kept in good state of cleanliness and friendly, helpful and attentive staff. Unfortunately Paignton as a town has seen better days and there were lots of obviously homeless people milling around, several of whom were only begging for money from passers by. The comparison with Torquay for instance was stark. There were very few places worth visiting in the evening in Paignton either for food or entertainment. Toirquay was the place to go.
