It is my 3rd time at the Mercure this time booking via expedia, on this occasion I found the room to be cleaned very late in the day which I declined as I had already returned back to relax before getting ready for the evening. On one occasion I returned to find my room door slightly ajar and a card in the door slot. Obviously as they tended to the room they left the card in the slot and my door ajar! I took the card to the lobby but I dont think the staff understood the gravity of what I was saying and just told me she could replace MY card if I wanted. I gave up trying to explain and was just thankful nothing in my room was disturbed. I was also disappointed by the parking headspace, from my previous visits I know a space is not to be expected but it is not advertised on the headspace, arriving this visit with a roof box I found I was unable to fit under the 2M height restriction and had to find other local parking. Despite the above I will visit again, this and the sister hotel Ibis really bring another level of accommodation to Paignton.

Stressful breakfast
We liked the location of the hotel overlooking the sea and the building is new, shiny and clean and the rooms are spacious and well designed. We stayed the weekend and on the Saturday we were out all day till 10pm but when we returned our room hadnt been serviced - the bed was unmade, dirty cups and tea/coffee not replenished etc.. We called reception and got an apology and replacement tea/ coffee but housekeeping had gone home. We found breakfast both mornings quite a stressful experience. Fried/poached eggs and hash browns have to be ordered and it's hit and miss whether you get your eggs as they dont have table numbers. We asked 3 times for our eggs only getting them after we had finished the rest of our hot breakfast. There was only frozen fruit on the Saturday, Sunday there was melon and frozen. I wasnt happy with the attitude of the restaurant manager on the Saturday morning when i pointed out the issues with our egg order and I didnt feel listened too. They just dont have enough staff during breakfast, they were struggling with the dishwasher - dishes piling up at the bar was unsightly. We visit Paignton 4 to 5 times a year, and thought we'd give this hotel a try but I am afraid we will not be returning unless the breakfast situation improves as wd came out of breakfast feeling quite stressed. On checking out I asked for a discount because of room not being done and they didnt know how to issue a refund!

were told by reception on arrival no restaurant/bar capacity for guests other than the coach parties. we booked a ‘privilege room’ which was a nice typical executive style room with sea view. Coffee was below average biscuits were nice though (although you’d need more as so hungry as no dinner available) we ended up ordering a papas to share as too tired to explore after journey! very underwhelmed by the whole experience such a let down for paignton as it should have been good!

Travelodge with bling
Not that impressed, paid for a superior privilege room, expecting floor to ceiling glass views of the bay. Was put on the top floor which felt like an attic room with a much smaller window. Was still a great view but not what I expected or what I felt I'd paid for. The dressing gowns were just screwed up in a bundle in the wardrobe. The room was really just a Travelodge with bling... Very disappointed

When we booked it online . We have booked sea view room or arrival we was told that that was not the case ..so we asked was there one available but there wasn’t ..and then took the room that they said that was booked but to find our bathroom was a disabled bathroom which wasn’t a problem but would preferred a normal bathroom. All in all not a bad stay but a bit pricey I wouldn’t of mind paying that for what was booked and that was sea view room not building view room

The hotel was lovely and modern we had a 3 night break, we upgraded to a sea view which was lovely, food was great but only found out off hearing other people talking you could order fried or poached eggs or hash brown so the last day we did order egss would have been nice to be told tis on first day. We stayed for 3 nights and our room wasn't cleaned or fresh towels, we had to ask for toilet rolls so this could be improved on.
