Premier Inn Paignton (Goodrington Sands)

The bed was very comfortable. A great night's sleep. I requested a room with a bath tub which I was able to have. The room could do with a little TLC but it was fine for a few days. Goodrington Sands is lovely place to stay. That's why we keep coming back.

We love this hotel it’s an excellent location right by the beach but I suggest you don’t have dinner !!! Queuing system at the bar is not working as in you choose what you want off the menu but as we found out items eg basic chicken are out of stock prawn starters etc then when you go and check what else to order you have to queue again !!! Queued twice over 10 people each time - they should inform people before they get to the counter . Avoid !!!

A very nice location right on the seafront, the walk to the town and pier is about 20 minutes, worth thinking about if mobility is an issue. On arrival there was parking right outside, I imagine I'm high season this could become limited however, you can come and go in your car for the duration of your stay and pay on departure, the car park is ANPR operated. We were greeted at reception by Emma who was very pleasant and helpful, we aren't familiar with the area and she even left the reception to act as a guide and direct is to the pathway to the town. We had a very spacious family room (111) at the front with a seaview, breakfast is served until 11am and was very good, a wide selection to choose from, fried breakfast was in form of help yourself buffet which was all nicely cooked and hot. A minor criticism that the building could do with a little TLC inside and out. Also we arrived on a Friday and spent the day in Paignton on the seafront and returned after an evening meal in town, we returned to our rooms and changed, headed downstairs to the bar area (Brewers Fayre incorporated into the Inn) around 9pm to be told last orders is 9:45. There isn't anywhere within a short walk if you want a drink after this time, we weren't looking to stay up all night but a drink until maybe 10:30 would not seem unreasonable. Small criticisms aside it wouldn't put us off staying again as the good points certainly outweigh those slight faults.
