The location was ideal for our trip. There were excellent facilities available which would certainly suit families. The parking was good and it was within easy walk of the coastal footpaths/station/bus routes etc.The staff were very friendly which made up for the slight 'niggles' which I have listed below. The dining room - beautifully decorated but the tables were lined up in rows - very cafeteria. They were so close together (1-2inches apart) that conversation ended up being stilted. The buffet style dinner did not really work for us - the food was being kept hot, so items such as tuna dried out rapidly. Lack of staff and/or training meant that items such as bread were offered to some tables and not others and there was definitely no explanation of what to do - we had to keep asking. This could be a really great hotel - it needs a little 'fine tuning' You really should have freshly cooked items for the price.Cleanliness was a slight issue - bins not emptied everyday in the bathroom, tiles obviously not wiped down so hairs left, condiment sets not cleaned (dried baked bean sauce on ours) - all tiny things that could easily be sorted.

As soon as we arrived at the Langstone Cliff we felt relaxed! This was even before we had walked through the front door. What a wonderful feel this family run Hotel has. My adult girls felt very comfortable. Every facility that you would require for a long stay was available. My husband and I are planning to return just to have a longer say and enjoy it more. This is the type of accommodation that anyone of any age can enjoy, even your dog! Love it Love it! The only thing was the lack of an elevator to get luggage up stairs. Having said that reception did supply a lovely young man to assist with our baggage.

Everything but particularly the friendliness and efficiency of the staff. Nothing is too much trouble. All areas of the hotel are excellent: some hotels spend a lot of money on foyer, dining room, bar and other public areas and skimp on the rooms. Not so the Langstone Cliff. We were delighted to find we had a balcony and a sea view. I am now retired, but during my business career one of my tasks was to select country hotels with leisure facilities for conferences. I have visited a lot of hotels that simply do not live up to their brochures or first impressions but Langstone Cliff was definitely not one of them. We will be back!

We have been to this hotel many many times since my daugher was a baby, She is now nearly 17. The food is always very good. The magician/entertainer on Friday night was quite entertaining for adults and kids. The gardens are beautifully kept. Most of the staff (the younger ones) helpful and pleasant in the dining room The hotel has gone down a bit since we last went in 2009. The room was not properly cleaned. Dust on the back rim of the dressing table, dust around the edged of the carpet. Hairs in the bathroom. Dirty marks on the walls. Dirty hand marks on the bathroom door. The free wi fi, was virtually non existant, we only managed to get on the network once or twice. Some staff have been there many many years and one in particular who was always grumpy is still there in the resturant and has not changed. We had been waiting a while one morning at breakfast and she went by our table and I asked her if we could please have some tea, coffee and toast.... And she was almost rude, saying she would come to us in a moment. Then a young lad came up to us smiling asking if we had ordered.... Much nicer manner. Which is what you expect. I think the hotel is now overpriced for what it is. Not sure if I will return again this time.

It was friendly, clean and comfortable and in a fantastic location - easy access to beach etc. We booked because we were travelling with a dog. Because of its facilities it was overun with children who sometimes took over the lounge as if it was their home. The serried rows in the dining room felt like school dinners - we resorted to bar meals in the lounge which was much better. Note - we altered the booking to twin room After the w/e the hotel was half empty. We felt that, with many hotels now offering a room rate, the cost of a per person rate would put folk off.

I came to the hotel for the wedding of Christine and James Maloney and was accompanied unexpectedly by a personal friend whose holiday had been cancelled. we found the hotel very comfortable and relaxed and were very impressed by the grounds, the views and the many facilities for children and adults with assorted tastes. the wedding was very well organised, the menu extremely good. All in all, a very confortable and relaxed hotel - most enjoyable. My friend and I are rather elderly and found the various stairs a bit much, but had we put more forethought into the project we could, of course, have asked for ground floor accommodation,but that was our lack of time before the event.

The location, and the views from the hotel will always be special,also the charm and style of the hotel should remain the same. The only thing i did'nt like was the room, it was very hot and although we had all the windows open it was still quite uncomfortable. It would have been nice to have had the choice of air conditioning. However, I know this is not always pracitable so as an alternative it would be a good idea to provide a fan for the rooms as standard rather than having to request one from reception.

The staff were very helpful and friendly, the break was very good value for money. A lovely setting with sea views, a family run hotel added to its appeal, the spa facilities we tried and were happy with the treatments we had. For those watching the waist line dont look at the sweet trolley, the pounds will pile on. Get the right weather and just relax in the grounds with a good book theres nothing better. Lot to do in the local area easy walk to the beach we had a good day out on the Paginton steam train to Dartmouth.

The staff were all very pleasant and helpful and did their best to make sure that we were comfortable and had everything that we needed. The atmosphere in the hotel was relaxed and we were able to have the break from our normal routine that we were hoping for.

The grounds; the lounge is quite comfortable. I did not get milk with my breakfast tea on the second day so had to keep going up to use the jug with the cereals. I also found the shower difficult to regulate and don't think it mixed the water very well.
