Great location and facilities. Rooms would benefit from upgrading but very clean and usable

Fantastic hotel

Fantastic hotel, clean, tidy and bed was super comfy. Area around the hotel is lovely with lots of restaurants etc. Metro is only a 2 min walk. Didnt have breakfast so cannot comment on that. Highly recommend

The location is fabulous with views across the estuary and wading birds. Also there is a walk alongside the estuary to a nature reserve.

3* hotel at moment

Standard 3* hotel, all was very nice it's just coming to stage where some things need updating eg bath/shower was tiny to point that shower curtain couldn't stop clinging and the shower was didn't have enough power As said, all nice enough and staff are very friendly

Stuart, 1-night trip

It’s a basic hotel but well worth the rate they charge.
Adrian, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

better than last time

Previous concerns regarding this property were slightly improved by the attention given by the staff to the previous comments, so less of a poor rating we avoided breakfast due to the coach parties as this has previously lead to poor service experience.
COLIN, 2-night trip

Very basic, dated and overpriced.

Very basic, dated and overpriced. Breakfast was £18 and hardly anything to be had for it.

Darren, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice stay

We enjoy the pool when we arrived. That was really nice after a long journey travelling to Devon. The hotel is in a beautiful location and a short drive to Torquay and Teignmouth. Plenty parking. Breakfast was very good but a bit slow with hot food orders. The hotel was full and they didn’t have enough staff to serve/ replenish food, which was a shame. Overall we had a very good stay and I would go back again.

Sharon, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

A great location

Enjoyed 3 nights here in July 2025. The location is great - a quiet spot at the head of the Teign with river and countryside views, plenty of bird life on the mud flats and reeds. It’s a short drive into Teignmouth or Sheldon and not far to other resorts such as Dawlish, Torquay, Babbacombe and Paignton. There is an indoor pool and sauna plus a spa offering various massage treatments. The staff were all very helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

I upgraded to a deluxe room with a balcony and it was a lovely large space. Overlooking the River Teign. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Food excellent.

Excellent location to explore Devon
Mary, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The location overlooking the estuary was really pleasing and quiet beautiful. Good access to other locations is good. My only criticism is that the decor is quite dsted. But this would not stop me staying there again in the future.
Stanley, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good stay, great staff

Lovely staff and location. Special early Sunday breakfast laid on for us as we were in a cycling event- great gesture! Some of the decor is now dating and tiring a little, especially the corridors with heavier use. The gym area with aerobic equipment is carpeted and a bit smelly… maybe a new non-carpet floor? I’m being picky though! Overall a good experience
Michael, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Budget hotel but good facilities and nearby walks.

Booked last minute. Location is a bit out of the way but only a few mins from N Abbott and 10 mins from Teignmouth. Outlook from hotel down the estuary very nice and some nice walks nearby. Hotel rooms are very dated, particularly bathrooms and due to age the toilet, bath etc appeared dirty, although I would imagine they had been cleaned. Comfortable bed and reception, bar and restaurant area were pleasant to sit in. Swimming pool lovely and warm and quite quiet, so great with young children. Restaurant menu is limited, particularly if you have children. I would sum the hotel up as a budget hotel. Definitely not luxurious but if you're on a tight budget, it's pleasant enough. Staff very friendly and helpful throughout stay. There's a nice pub literally next to the car park with a good menu and views down the estuary.
