Top Paignton Zoo Hotel Reviews

Marine Hotel Paignton

8/10 Good

"Genuinely a well located hotel in Paignton, overlooking the sea front. It's an older property, a little worn around the edges, and the WiFi only works in the reception area, but it's made up for by the friendly staff, amazing breakfast, and comfortable room. There is a lift, which is a rarity for this type of property, so it's a bit more accessible for less abled guests. Would highly recommend!"

The Grand Hotel
