So good we extended the stay!!

Absolutely wonderful stay! So good we extended for an extra night!! Lovely little indoor pool, lovely spacious restaurant and separate bar/entertainment area. Nice sitting room area with pool table, fruit machines puzzles and boardgames. There's also a television and comfy seating. The staff are all fabulous, altho my son, Archie has asked me to give a shout out to Jamie for being "AMAZING at everything!!" Arch's grandad lives in Paignton and its now "the law" that we stay at the Queens Hotel every time we come.

Great stay overall

We booked this last minute for a bargain price. Overall our stay was excellent for what we paid. We had a lovely welcome, our room, if a little date, was clean and tidy. The beds extremely comfortable. The swimming pool was a welcome bonus and was very warm! Our 4 course evening meal was excellent value and we slept well. We opted for breakfast at 8:30 and this was where the only issue occurred. We was shown to our table at 8:35 but then wasn't attended to, or had our order taken until 9:15. The 4 waiting staff worked tirelessly and apologised for the delay (they needed to get a coach load of guests out) the breakfast was good quality for the cost. Overall a very good stay, we'll definitely come back.

A very pleasant surprise

A one night stay on a wet and windy weekend in January. After booking, the hotel phoned to say that they were actually closed that night but they could give us the same price at their other hotel, The Palace. All we were looking for was a room for the night; we really didn't expect it to be such a stunning room with a prime view. We would have been very happy with anything, but this was really superb. Whilst this review can't really tell you about the Queen's Hotel, it tells you a lot about the high standard of service and customer care that they give.

A very well located hotel to the beach and train station. A nice little clean swimming pool with great availability. Breakfast was good with plenty of options. The evening entertainment was fun. All in all, especially considering the relative price for the location, there's a lot going on for what appears a modest hotel.

A good value short stay.

The room was clean and tidy, if a little tired. Bathroom was spotless, the bed was a little soft for my taste. The staff however were friendly and engaging.

Disappointing

We visit Paighton 4-5 times a year, but wanted a hotel with entertainment due to time of year. After reading the reviews we chose Queen's Hotel and thought we were in safe hands! From outside building looks great maybe some tidying around bin areas outside kitchen. On arrival the receptionist was more interested in ensuring I paid for our pre booked evening meal than checking us in with any relevant information. Overall we felt reception as the face of the hotel may need some reminders or training in smiling and welcoming and greeting customers. Our room twin above lane to car park and kitchen. Very noisey with early delivery s and noisey generally with thin walls. Room was very dated and old needed updates but generally was unclean. Stained and ripped shower Matt and curtains. Shower grout needed cleaning. Bins dirty. Pool needed pre booking unfortunately wasn't able to use as times were unavailable. Only had one evening meal and food was bland and over cooked. Three coaches staying when we were and whole restaurant service felt rushed and plates were dumped three courses all in 30 minutes. Evening entertainment was ok coach guests seemed to enjoy. The lift was very temperamental and inside door kept jamming and people were running up stairs to send it down, it broke on third day we were advised to ask for room on ground floor next time as one has a few mobility issues . Car park is ok as long as in before coaches which use it aswell. Location close to town.
