Our second stay at the Victoria, January 2012, and our experience was as pleasing as our first visit. Once again we were greeted with a warm welcome by the reception staff, nothing is too much trouble. All the staff are very polite and courteous and made us feel welcome. Though our room was classed in the garden/partial sea view category,... More

I grew up in Sidmouth, and even after I left I would still come back and stay in this hotel with my Mother and sometimes my sister Mum loved it because of it's gracious charm, and the wonderful staff. I think that if she could, she would have lived in it full time. To me, staying here was THE holiday,... More

Sidmouth is an old fashioned town developed in Victorian times and the Victoria fits the general ambience. It is expensive unless there is a deal available and you need to be careful about choice of room. Ours was a refurbished one with a sea view. The decor and bathroom were good although the room was small. The view was mainly... More

I am sure many younger people would not feel as comfortable as us (50's) as the hotel has a large proportion of older guests. The same friendly faces are there time and again, a good sign of a happy well run ship. If... More

The cleanliness’ was superb, the whole hotel was spotless, and looked regal with the Xmas decorations. Breakfast was cooked... More

We chose the suite which was huge, beautifully furnished and with a bright modern bathroom. Lovely, warm and inviting with sea views from all rooms. The staff catered for our every whim, George was particularly helpful and never... More
