A comfortable traditional hotel set in beautiful grounds. Easy walking distance to the centre of Teignmouth town and beach.Friendly helpful staff. We were allowed to park after checking out for the rest of the day so we can explore the town. Having breakfast included was an extra bonus. Comfortable bed and clean room.

Beautiful place, fabulous gardens, great staff.

Great breakfast, plenty of it, no wokery, nice quality, good taste very enjoyable. 5 stars. Friendly staff everywhere, including front desk management, restaurant and garden staff. The gardens are worth the stay on their own. Cliffden is a reassuringly traditional hotel, with lovely views and a wonderful welcome. Nothing too much trouble. Thank you.

Room was clean, good view of sea. However, there was a hole in the bed sheet, also no pressure in shower water. Parking was fine, staff were friendly. WI-FI was good too. Very nice swimming pool, grounds were great & very near to beach walking through gardens. Definitely would stay again.

Walking distance to beach through gardens. Off road parking. Room clean and roomy but over the bath shower not suitable for old people. Would not recommend the restaurant for dinner but a good choice of breakfast items.

Very impressed. Although the room was a bit dated it was spotlessly clean. The garden and views are very impressive and the staff were helpful. Lovely buffet breakfast and the swimming pool area was very modern. We used it twice and had it to ourselves! I'd put it above 3 stars.

We booked a club accessible room on the ground floor. We were given a first floor club room with no accessible features. The toilet was normal height without any foldable lift arm and the small shower cubicle was one step up so I couldn't use it at all. The arm caps on the armchair were filthy as was the sink plughole, the smell of which made me retch. The dressing table and stool had no mirror, there was one in the shower room bolted to the wall. The twin beds pushed together to create a 'King' size bed were a bit saggy and the pillows were rock hard. Breakfast was largely self service and the notice in the lift advised that us to get there early if we wanted hot food. I had fruit salad and the orange slice weren't peeled. I opted for yoghurt in the end which felt safer. My husband had a cooked meal but was unimpressed. The only hotel I have EVER stayed in where, we got up early to avail ourselves of hot food and then came back to bed because we were tired. Definitely not worth the £394.20 we were charged,which lacking a receipt we cannot offer a breakdown of. I cannot recommend this tired lackluster old hotel. The gardens were nice; didn't try the pool. Apparently facing the gardens and glimpsing the sea made our room a Club room!

Could be a really special hotel!

What a lovely hotel this could be! Great location and grounds, but understaffed and a bit tired. That being said, staff were friendly & helpful and the room was spacious. We stayed with our dog and the facilities provided for furry-friends are great. The pool is warm and clean. Would come back.
