Redcliffe Hotel

As usual the ambience, location,...

Liked: The hotel is traditional and welcoming. Free parking is a bonus as is the waterfront location by the beach. The breakfasts and bar meals were good and the staff were friendly and polite.
Disliked: We have stayed at The Redcliffe regularly in the last couple of years and always ask for the same double room. It suits us because it is large with plenty of space for clothes with a nice bathroom. On this trip there was a heatwave and we did find the room very hot even with the window open continuously. The duvet was a winter weight so we removed it and just slept under the duvet cover. We did mention it to the receptionist, however, they were busy so I don’t think a different room was possible. We were only there for three nights anyway. We will maybe choose a different one next time. Although it isn’t usually such a hot time of year when we visit.

Great for a seaside break...

Liked: Great location - fab sea views and two pools. Staff were all so helpful and a really nice breakfast. Room was a good size. Plus a ‘secret’ passage down to the beach!
Disliked: Slightly dated and a lots of stairs, corridors etc which adds to the charm but lots of obstacles to navigate. Room didn’t have air con and was a bit warm.

Amazing location, fantastic facilities, amazing...

Liked: The facilities exceeded our expectations, the staff were very polite and helpful, fantastic location, spacious comfortable room.The location of the hotel was a stone’s throw from the centre of Paignton, and just a 15 minute drive from Torquay.
Disliked: The jacuzzi was available but was not working properly.

Very good

Lovely stay

Liked: Stunning location. I had a seaview room with a little balcony, and it was so nice to sit out there. The staff were super helpful and friendly. There is an indoor pool with a hot tub and steam room as well as a lovely outdoor pool. It took minutes to get to the beach.
Disliked: Only a few minor niggles stopped me from giving full marks. For example, on a few occasions, the outdoor pool was closed as there was no lifeguard available. On one day, housekeeping asked if I needed more coffee and milk, I said no thanks but then when I returned to my room later they had taken that to mean I didn't want them to supply clean cups, spoons etc. Nothing major but minor inconveniences

The staff have been lovely...

Liked: Love the location.
Disliked: No double glazing so could hear everything outside. Tv not working but not such an issue as we didn’t really need it. Also could do with room a fridge or air conditioning. Our chocolates all melted with the heat.

Passable

Liked: Pleasant staff. Location. Good breakfast.
Disliked: The whole property needs major investment. It's very dated. Outdoor swimming pool and area is dirty. It seemed the staff are fighting a losing battle.
