Premier Inn Paignton Seafront (Goodrington Sands) hotel in Torbay

Location was excellent and rooms were very good but I've marked the service down because of the restaurant. Service was below what I expected. Empty plates left on the tables and debris on the floor. I Had to prompt the waiting staff more than once. The food was good so no complaints there.

A great stay for a special family occasion. We had 4 rooms all with amazing sea views one with extra beds for young children and one with a baby cot. All comfortable and clean. We booked the meal package each day and reception helped us organise all the bookings. Great service from the reception staff and from the bar staff dealing with the large evening meal orders. A special mention and a big thank you to Emma on reception for all her help, advice and friendly service, she is a credit to the Premier Inn company.

Beware when you stay here, Whitbread who own premier inn have given horizon parking control of a previously free for customer car park, result you are stung for charges, you are told not to pay when you arrive but when you leave, result in my case I forgot, and for my two day stay I am looking at 2 individual fines of £57 each, I wonder what the kick back for Whitbread it, the easy jet of hotel chains

Love staying here on the beach as long as you get a Seaview, parking is limited

Fab location right on seafront not far from main beach, pier and high street, friendly staff, car park (pay for parking after stay) able to get breakfast in with the room price

Great location, get £7 day saver and bus it to Brixham then to Goodrington, Torquay , Paignton then backto Goodrington

So I can’t bring my dog in so I sit outside in the covered area that is full of sh&t and people smoking when they aren’t supposed to??!? Think you need to do some housekeeping.

Service from pretty much every single member of staff is mega. Genuinely super. Food is standard premier in stuff. Beers are good and it's a cracking location. Parking is ok, just remember to pay before you leave as zero codes or references given. WiFi is shocking(1mb down, .25 up) , they are taking full advantage that the signal for mobiles inside is poor so try and push for the premium WiFi(£5 a day). Summer I am guessing it would be rammed! 😂

Normally amazing service in the past from Emma. Lovely lady goes out of her way to help everytime we have stayed here. Shes so kind and thoughtful. But tonight kirsty a stand in lady. Made me feel uncomfortable and not welcome at all. Told me their was no sea view rooms. But found out their was later. Really upset me. Luckily Emma helped us and so greatful

We stayed here but won't be staying again the bed was not good it was rock hard so did not sleep at all and went down for breakfast and that was not good aboustley disgusting so checked out early and the phone them today for a part refund got told no not happy with this service aboustley disgusting

We had the seaview room which was had an amazing view staff were friendly and helpful. Location is great. Will 110% be back again. The room was top notch

Just popped in for quick coffee as visiting family in brixham love the place excellent food when I've been before

Stayed just after Christmas. Clean and tidy rooms and hotel in general. Friendly helpful staff. Had the food package which is great value and the food was good. Great spot next to the beach, with lots of nearby places to visit........we will be back!!!

Couldn't fault them! The room was clean, the location was great and the staff were so friendly and helpful. Unfortunately we couldn't check in early due to staff shortages but they so kindly let us leave our suitcases behind safely. The vending machine also wasn't working properly and they let us have a jug of ice water to take to our room. Would highly recommend.

The room itself was clean, with a kettle tea sugar and coffee...hair dryer heating flatscreen tv as you would expect..... I paid extra for the sea view on the first floor, when I pulled back the curtains to find it really disappointing that the windows were really dirty. Beautiful veiw of the coastline that was ruined by birds poo cobwebs and Sea salt dirt on the windows..... One of the curtains was missing curtain hooks. Paint was flaking around windows.... Bar shut at 10.30 so couldn't get a drink and the vending machine wasn't working tho there was what I wanted in the machine it was saying out of order, disappointing.... The staff were as helpful as they could be and were all polite. Despite that we slept well and the English breakfast was OK, and filled a hole.

We have visited several times & never disappointed!

The actual hotel was fine. I wish I hadn't booked the breakfast in advance. It was cold.

Spent 4 good days here in early autumn. Only a few metres behind a lovely beach. Standard Premier Inn rooms and food. All very satisfactory.

What an awful place, service slow definitely not with a smile. Tables full of used glasses and leftover food orders, looks completely understaffed, would avoid and go elsewhere

Premier Inns are excellent value for money. Rooms are spacious, beds comfortable and the staff are friendly. We also choose them because of the 11pm watershed where customers are asked to be quiet so other guests can sleep. It's a good night's sleep or your money back policy which is excellent. One of the best Premier Inns that we've stayed in 3 times is this one at Goodrington Sands. It's right on the seafront with a lovely beach nearby. Theres the Splash fun place next door and a park with lake and boats and crazy golf. The walk into Paignton is very scenic and pleasant. In the other direction you can walk along the cliff path. We love coming down for breakfast and looking out at the sea, or in warm weather sitting on the tables outside. An excellent position and stunning views that change with the weather. The steam train runs past the beach and looks as though it's on top of the beach huts so another attraction for young and old alike

Sunday carvery served by chef Moses. Excellent choice of meats, beef, turkey and or Gammon. Great selection of vegetables cooked to a high quality. Good value at £11 plus Chef Moses was very friendly and courteous, he obviously loves his work! Lovely views too overlooking the bay.

I use Premier a lot for personal and business trips - this trip was booked for a member of my team for business. Hotel is as expected and location lovely by the sea. BUT parking and the subsequent service my employee received from reception was really bad, hence the review so others are aware. Hotel has parking but it's by managed/ monitored by Horizon. At the time of our stay the machine didn't work and neither did their online portal - receptions response was not willing to help and advised "wait for the PCN (parking charge notice)!!!". As we had booked non flexi we had no choice but to stay at the hotel other wise we would have moved to another hotel. Horizon is as expected, awful to deal with... and now sent four PCN's (one for each day of our stay) as we couldn't get hold of them (via phone, online etc)... apparently online (if it's working you can backdate - but this isn't the case). Of course we have now appealed as have evidence but writing this so others aware... feel like it's money making scheme between Premier and Horizon. We won't be using this hotel again. Each PCN is £57 per one, if not paid within a certain time frame its £95.00 for each one.

Great location with clean modern rooms. Excellent service this time from Emma, really helpful and went the extra mile to help.

Hotel it's self was as expected at any premier inn, but the restaurant is shocking, starter and main course served at the same time on first night, when asked why? They looked at me like I had 6 heads. Second night main course came out midway through my starter. Will not be returning, would sooner drive a bit farther and not have to endure that restaurant. Sad really because it has some lovely views.

Went with my family for breakfast. Excellent value for the cooked breakfast but the continental breakfast wasn't such good value in the fact that the choice of items is rather limited. I would have expected cheese and ham , salami etc. Coffee was excellent. Staff hard working. Yoghurt and fresh fruit selection was quite poor considering the number of people coming for breakfast on a Sunday morning. There was only 2 pots of natural yoghurt left when I went to get some. That was about 9.45am. a few more were put in by the staff but then I had the last strawberry yoghurt about 10.15 and there was still people coming in for breakfast.

Great stay, Currently still here, don't want to leave, seaside view, not far from anywhere

Didn't stay. Went for meal as 30% offer on. Short staffed, food average, not as good as previous visits

Right on the sea wall and almost on the beach this is a good location. Very close to Splashdown Quay west but that was closed so not a source of nuisance and noise it may be at height of the season.

Beautiful stay at this premier inn , ideally situated to be able to walk Brixam and Paignton.
