Friendly hotel with easy access to the coast.
Pros:

The staff were very friendly throughout my stay, and told me about the facilities on offer when I checked in. There is a nice small private garden with a sea view for walks. The lower gate leads directly to the seafront. Large choice for breakfast, and traditional pub-dinner choices.

Cons:

The bedroom can be noisy at night if there are loud events taking place outside / traffic from the road.

Perfect place for long or short stay.
Pros:

Very Grand with beautiful gardens and a lovely pool. Clever access to the town via the gardens instead of the road. Train and bus transport to adjoining towns. Restaurant staff so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Special shoutout to Jo who made our stay very special.

Cons:

Nothing

Exactly what I needed! A wonderful rest in my favourite place = Teignmouth!
Pros:

The gardens are gorgeous and the garden terrace a lovely place to just sit and be. Really easy walk through the gardens and across a road to get to the sea front. Breakfast was DELICIOUS and the staff were super helpful.

Cons:

Some of the decor/carpets in the communal areas was a bit dated (although that didn't really matter to me) It would also feel higher quality if the staff had smarter uniforms (but again that didn't matter to me, I was more interested in the fact they gave good service! It's just in comparison to other hotels)

Schönes Hotel mit Charme und kleinen Haken.
Pros:

Altes Hotel mit viel Charme. Sehr nettes hilfsbereites Personal.
Sehr schöne Aussenterrassen und eine wunderschöne Parkanlage. Super Lage und der Strand sowie das Dorf sind in 5 Gehminuten erreichbar.
Sehr gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.
Indoor-Pool.
Genügend Parkplätze direkt beim Hotel.

Cons:

Typisches englisches Frühstück ohne Abwechslung.
Bei vollem Restaurant lange Wartezeiten und Einbruch der Qualität der Speisen. Keine grosse Auswahl an Gerichten.
Der Indoorpool ist nur 77 bis 110 cm tief und die Lufttemperatur im Poolbereich viel zu hoch um auf den Liegen oder Stühlen zu relaxen.

Okay for a short stay, very basic, does the job for the night.
Pros:

Location of property was ideal. The hotel isn’t anything to write home about. Basic.

Cons:

It’s basic for the price, the breakfast was awful. Cooked breakfast was tasteless and just greasy, no beans, no mushrooms, scrambled eggs weren’t replenished. I asked for two poached eggs, awful. Hard cooked and tasted of vinegar. Also cctv didn’t work by the pool so wasn’t able to swim. Most would book this hotel for the pool, so that was disappointing.
