This must be one of the best hotels I have stayed in this year. I have ten to visit this year and The Victoria is without doubt the best. It stylish and well laid out. It has plenty for the residents to do and the staff were very warm and friendly. It was only a one night stay. I should... More

Having had a stressful couple of weeks I wanted a hotel that I could enjoy myself in beautiful surroundings. Enjoy fantastic food where the service from friendly & efficient staff would be available. I certainly found all of these things & more. My rooms were fantastic & enabled me to be able to catch up on some writing. The working... More

Faultless service,faultless food and excellent accommodation. What's more the hotel has an outstanding view and only 2 minutes from the seafront. The hotel gardens looked lovely although we went in February so it was a little cold to appreciate them fully.

This hotel is one of old-fashioned charm, elegance and quality. The staff were consistently friendly, helpful and pleasant, always willing to help but not 'in your face'. My room (single) was very well presented with plenty of extra comforts to make the stay enjoyable. My only small gripe was a draught coming under the main door, which I could imagine... More

We have just spent three nights in this hotel and had a pleasant stay. There are some good points and some bad. The decor is elegant and traditional. Our bedroom was well decorated but rather small. I am petite and found the size merely adequate. However the bathroom was very modern,stylish and spotless. The restaurant staff were friendly,helpful and efficient.... More

This very grand hotel has clearly recently had a huge amount spent on refurbishing it, (you can still smell the fresh paint) with sumptuous soft furnishings and wonderful comfort for the elderly bones that sink into the well upholstered chairs. The youngest residents are probably in their 70's though, so it was a pleasure to see people properly dressed for... More

The Victoria Hotel is all it says it is. It's elegant, well maintained and the standard of service is excellent, but a doorman and restaurant and bar staff always around together with musical accompaniment at dinner all cost a bit extra so don't expect a cheap visit! Meals are varied and there is a good choice but the side dish... More

We were looking for a Sidmouth hotel with sea views and the Westcliff was full (in early May!) but the next door hotel, the Victoria, had just one room available - The Victoria Suite, the best in the place. It has sea views so my wife booked it! The parking is somewhat restricted at the hotel but we arrived just... More
