In need of upgrading

The Esplanade Hotel might have been very grand in the past but has been allowed to fall into some decay. Located right on the sea front which is a good position and only 8 minutes stroll to the town centre. The rooms are small with the wallpaper starting to peel off the walls. the beds were very uncomfortable and well past there us by date. The bathroom was microscopic and awful. There was a television and tea/coffee making facilities in the room. the cleaning standard were poor. The food in the waiter service restaurant was quite reasonable but small portions. the restaurant opening hours were short and extremely restrictive. If you are a tight budget then you might overlook the numerous pitfalls and put up with them as it was quite cheap to stay here on a half board package.

Unique Quality: Good location

  • Opinion of Price: less expensive than average

Great Location, Hotel passed its sell by date

We went on a short break holiday at Esplanade Hotel in Sands Road Paignton. Devon. There were on a number of positives and negatives. The Positive Great location right on a sea front, Friendly and efficient staff, Reasonable food, good value. Negatives; Hotel in urgent need of a complete redecoration,terrible bathroom, mean portion at meals. ancient life. Overall if you want a good base at a reasonable value and spend a minimum time in your room then the Esplanade Hotel may be a passable choice provided you can put up with staying in a hotel that is tired, old and passed its sell by date. Best for over45 age group. Not recommended for families . Free Parking. It does cater for the more mature holidaymaker.

Unique Quality: Location On the seafront and only 5 minutes walk to town centre shops, bus station and train station.
