Very Good

11/10 for the location. Great views and direct access to a lovely walk into Newton Abbott. Large carpark, leisure facilities were good. What let us down was the breakfast on the first morning. Got sat down then forgotten about. When we did eventually get our traditional English order the hash-brown was mouth burning but the rest of the plate stone cold! However the next day had an Eggs Benedict and it was fine so we won't be put off staying again.
Lovely hotel brilliant location really pleasant stay

3* hotel at moment
Standard 3* hotel, all was very nice it's just coming to stage where some things need updating eg bath/shower was tiny to point that shower curtain couldn't stop clinging and the shower was didn't have enough power
As said, all nice enough and staff are very friendly

Our room for was a good size& quiet.
The wifi didn't work unless we were by the door. Room 45
Overall, very good slightly dated decor could’ve done with a handrail in the shower couldn’t,get kettle in the sink to refill it, bedroom nice quiet room comfortable bed.
Fantastic hotel, clean, tidy and bed was super comfy. Area around the hotel is lovely with lots of restaurants etc. Metro is only a 2 min walk. Didnt have breakfast so cannot comment on that. Highly recommend
The Passage House Hotel is in such a beautiful location. Lovely scenery and walks. Easy and quick to drive to shops. The hotel is a little tired and dated but that had no impact on our stay. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful. The pool was a great hit with grandchildren. We thoroughly enjoyed the Passage House Inn which is right next door. Food and drinks looking over the estuary. We would definitely stay again b

Budget hotel but good facilities and nearby walks.
Booked last minute. Location is a bit out of the way but only a few mins from N Abbott and 10 mins from Teignmouth. Outlook from hotel down the estuary very nice and some nice walks nearby. Hotel rooms are very dated, particularly bathrooms and due to age the toilet, bath etc appeared dirty, although I would imagine they had been cleaned. Comfortable bed and reception, bar and restaurant area were pleasant to sit in. Swimming pool lovely and warm and quite quiet, so great with young children. Restaurant menu is limited, particularly if you have children. I would sum the hotel up as a budget hotel. Definitely not luxurious but if you're on a tight budget, it's pleasant enough. Staff very friendly and helpful throughout stay. There's a nice pub literally next to the car park with a good menu and views down the estuary.

Very basic, dated and overpriced.
Very basic, dated and overpriced.
Breakfast was £18 and hardly anything to be had for it.
We booked a lodge for 4 people, but the sofa bed had not been made up on arrival and there were only 2 towels!! We had to get a staff member to come to make up the sofa bed and get us the correct number of towels. The sofa bed was very uncomfortable for our children, so we won't be returning to this hotel. The dishwasher didn't work, so we washed up. There was also no recycling bin, so we took our recycling away to be recycled. The pool was lovely though and heated to a good temperature. We spent lots of time in it.
