comfortable rooms and exceptional service

We were very impressed with the friendliness of the staff and the comfort in the rooms. Both the bedroom and the public rooms were very clean and well maintained. The breakfast and evening meals were superb and we did enjoy having a freshly cooked breakfast brought to our table rather than a buffet style self service where the food had been hanging around. The overall impression was of happy staff creating a pleasant atmosphere

Very clean and service excellent. Booked a standard double room, this was quite small and the shower very tiny, anyone of large build would not get in it. No other complaints.

Overall another lovely stay at The Kingswood. The lounge is lovely, the quiz a bonus and staff all delightful - special shoutout to Steve who is an asset all round. Lots of personal attention including remembering our son’s name. Breakfast is great quality and tasty with good choice. Room was a bit warm despite radiators being off and there’s no aircon. Windows do open but it can be noisy if you look out onto the car park. A rather noisy rattly fan started up each morning at 7 at the back of the property - I think the kitchen extractor. Didn’t bother us as we are up by then but if you like a lie in it was probably loud enough to wake you. The hotel couldn’t be more convenient for the seafront and town centre, with everywhere easily walkable from it. Free parking is available if you ask early enough.

The hotel was great in almost every way. However, fundamentally I expect good quality beds. I booked a family room for 3 adults, clearly stating that we would each need our own bed. Staff were helpful in making up a second pull out bed but the two pull out beds were extraordinarily uncomfortable, each with a ridge across the middle that gave me a sore back to sleep on. I'm guessing its mostly children that take these beds but that shouldn't mean they should tolerate them. Disappointing as I really needed a good night's sleep.

Excellence in Customer Service

So as we were driving down to Devon we were running a little late. Liz on reception took the trouble to ring us and check our ETA so that we wouldn't have any difficulty getting in when we arrived. Top drawer. She had also rang me earlier in the week to sort out our parking as she suspected email wasn't working. And on top of that they're dog friendly. In fact most of Sidmouth is dog friendly.

The Kingswood Hotel is a right on the seafront in Sidmouth. The hotel is welcoming with a light and airy dining room and bar and lounge area with board games, overlooking the beach. The staff were polite, welcoming and helpful. I stayed here on a business trip and ate breakfast here, but no other meals. The breakfast was delicious with a large choice of both cooked items from the menu, but also an extensive breakfast buffet including items such as berry compote, fruit salad, cereal and yogurt and juices. I had a comfortable and enjoyable stay and would definitely like to stay here again, when in Sidmouth.
