Mediocre "Luxury"
First, I'll start by saying, I have NO ISSUES spending money...however; my concerns about the quality of the said goods/services I am paying for, must fit a certain standard. Victoria Hotel & Source Spa is NOT a place of quality worth consumers funds. I am against "home-stays" in the South of England as things are basically subpar and out of date, however this particular weekend, it was the closest to meet up with friends for a "relaxing" weekend. This hotel was chosen because it's rated 4 stars. This is false advertising. It could be, however, falls extremely short to about a 2.7 and the only reason it could be on the verge of a 3 is because if you like the beach, it's across the street. The rooms are small, outdated, dingy, needing a ton of paint, new carpets and probably see about getting doors to actually fit the frames so you can't play a game of Iimbo! The audacity of the dress code requirements for dining and eating food that is drier than choking on cinnamon and only seasoned with Desperation and Regret is laughable. Literally... a tie to choke harder on dehydrated lamb I guess. Not to mention, service was slow and the 2 nights before check in , we were called and told our spa day was cancelled and if we'd like to reschedule? Darling, that would have been the only saving grace for that building had we experienced but I'm confident in the statement that: Unless you're pushing 105 years old, deaf, blind and taste buds of racoon, you will be depressed.

Had a fab time at this hotel . Great food and good casino entertainment . The band entertainment started too late so we did not stay around for it . The outdoor pool needed a cover or some way of keeping leaves out of it . Beautiful flowers at hotel

Great Hotel
We love this hotel, used to stay here regularly when working in the area, however haven’t visited for many years as we now don’t live so far away however as part of a longer trip decided to revisit and was delighted the service and hospitality are as top notch as they were 30 years ago. Had a great feeling of grandeur and service which sadly is so lacking in many hotels. The room was miden with everything we needed, lovely comfy bed, nice bathroom with super over bath shower. We ate dinner in the White Room and thoroughly enjoyed our meal and the local wine from the extensive wine list. Parking was easy which is important in Sidmouth. Great stop over and I’m sure we’ll be back again very soon for a overnight escape.

Rooms on the third floor are very hot (when sunny) with no air conditioning. Luckily we were moved to a cooler room. Apart from that a pleasant stay.

Could not see where the value was in this room over recent travelodge stays, too hot had to keep fan on all night, bedside cabinets obstructed access to bed, overall disappointment and not value for the money. Standard double
