4-star beachfront hotel on Paignton's seafront with panoramic sea views
Location & Views
The Commodore sits directly on Paignton Beach, 400 metres from the sand and a 5-minute walk from the town center. Guests see uninterrupted sea views overlooking Torbay from many rooms, with Goodrington Sands Beach less than 1 km away. Paignton Train Station is a 10-minute walk, and Dartmoor National Park is easily reachable by car.
Pet-Friendly Amenities
The hotel provides doggy bags on arrival, including towels, bowls, and treats for each pet. Pet bowls are available in the room, and the beach opposite the hotel allows dogs out of season. This century-old building on Esplanade Terrace welcomes pets with specific provisions not found at most hotels.
Rooms & History
The Commodore occupies a century-old historic building on Esplanade Terrace, with rooms named after figures like Isadora Duncan and Agatha Christie. Each en suite room has a flat-screen TV and a wardrobe, with selected rooms offering a sofa. The hotel is adults-only and has comfortable double rooms with sea views.
Dining & Kitchen
A free continental breakfast is included, with cereals, fruit, bread, and croissants available in a shared kitchen. The shared kitchen is fully equipped for guests to cook their own hot breakfast using local butcher packs. A library and bar are on-site for additional refreshments.
On-site Facilities
The hotel offers a shared lounge for guest relaxation, with board games and books for children available. Free private parking is provided directly outside the front of the building. Express check-in/check-out and 24-hour security are included for convenience.
Highlights
Historic Building: Century-old property on Esplanade Terrace
Pet Policy: Doggy bags, bowls, and treats on arrival
Location: Beachfront opposite Paignton Beach, 5 min to town
Breakfast: Free continental breakfast with DIY hot food option
Views: Panoramic sea views overlooking Torbay from many rooms
Parking: Free private parking outside the hotel
“What strikes me is the genuine flexibility here, allowing guests to self-cater alongside a B&B service, all facilitated by an exceptionally accommodating host. The seafront location is certainly a draw, with many rooms benefiting from direct sea views, and the DIY breakfast concept, coupled with a well-stocked kitchen, adds a practical, guest-centric dimension. It feels like a thoughtful operation, particularly appealing for those who appreciate a hands-on approach to their stay.”
