This is the second time we have stayed at the Dukes. Excellent service both at breakfast and dinner. Good selection of breakfast and evening meal. Didn’t eat lunchtime so can’t comment on the menu. .All the staff were friendly and helpful. The bedding was nice & clean.

The television signal was not very good at all , good if you wanted to watch itv but all the other channels were unwatchable as the picture was braking up all the time. To get onto the WiFi you had to put your email address in and tick a box to say you would like to receive communication by email, it was free if you were happy to tick the box, but so it should be . I didn’t want to so I had no WiFi but used my iPhone hotspot to use my iPad.

Breakfast was lovely, a good choice of well cooked food and staff were really friendly and welcoming. Times were just right - not too early!room was really comfortable and had a super view. Dinner was very nice and good value.

There did not seem to be anywhere to sit and have a drink in the evening. I felt I was taking up a table that was wanted for diners so only had one drink and then left. When I returned to the Duke during the day, the gate was shut and I had to wait in a queue to get access to the Inn. Negotiating the above situations can make a lone traveller feel uncomfortable.

I had such an amazing time at the Dukes Inn: it was really easy to find, and checking in was efficient and the member of staff was very welcoming. My room was ready before the time they had advised and I was allowed to go in already. The location is brilliant! My room was small, but extremely clean and comfortable. It was also so so quiet and I really appreciated the calm. Breakfast was plentiful and very nice every day. I had the roast on a Sunday (you need to book) and again, it was very nice. All the members of staff were incredibly nice: very attentive to every customers' needs. They were all very helpful and went out of their way to make my stay, and other customers' stay the best they could. I genuinely had an excellent stay at the Dukes Inn and went I went home, I told my other half we'll have to go back together. I really appreciated their customer service skills and their kindness. Thank you again so much to all for making my stay so incredibly pleasant!

There is absolutely nothing I didn't like at the Dukes Inn: everything was perfect for me!

Great location, i managed to get a parking space next to the hotel. Friendly reception and the rooms were ready upon arrival. Rooms were well appointed and clean. Evening meal was good and the service was friendly. Breakfast was very nice in the Elizabeth hotel next door. Service was great and the food was excellent

All in all, it's a good place to stay in a great location, I would recommend Duke's as a great place to stay in Sidmouth. My only minor criticism would be that some occasional seating near the bar for an evening drink before your meal would be good. I wanted a beer before sitting down for dinner but there was no available seating.

Breakfast on the two days we stayed there was excellent, a choice of cereals, cooked breakfasts, variety of juices, coffee especially were very good and of course tea. The dinners were very good on both nights and what to expect in the Inn, nicely done, hot, and filling with a choice of menu. The room was clean, with all the facilities you need ie towels etc and comfortable with a fresh outlook, and the bathroom plus a fairly good view of the seafront. Had trouble sleeping on the first night due to the extreme heat we were having but there is a window to leave open as well as the curtains to close to keep it cool when you need to. The staff were impeccable from start to the finish of our stay there, whether they were busy at all times, they coped with it very well, always with a smile, friendly and helpful. Recommended for all couples.

Provide special fans in the Summer if it helps? otherwise, everything was all good. Recommended.

The staff were lovely. So friendly and polite. It was busy but we didn’t ave to wait long for food in the evening. A good choice at breakfast. I had had trouble using the coffee machine. I asked the young lady preparing the rooms if she knew how it worked. She immediately took me back into our room to show me.

Narrow stairs and we were on the third floor. My mistake I should have checked. My husband has mobility issues, but he managed. The manager had offered to see if there was a more accessible room in a sister hotel. No instructions for the coffee machine!

Great value for money and special mention to Zima for his great service on Thursday and Friday, nothing was too much for him even when the place was packed. Breakfast was great and the staff were just great, so polite and friendly.

My room, room 5 was obviously close to the kitchen extractor fan as I woke up to smell of deep fat fryer on one morning. The view from the room made up for that though.

We had lunch on arrival and it was excellent with a very efficient and friendly service in a nice restaurant area Breakfast was excellent too and staff lovely The staff make this establishment

The stairs and corridors leading to our room were very tired looking and need a lick of paint - updating Although our room was nice and very clean with a sea view it wasn't worth £181.00 per night !! Needs a bit of a makeover

I recently stayed at Dukes Inn during a difficult time, as I had just lost my uncle in Malaysia. Despite my somber mood, the hotel provided a calm and comforting ambiance that helped me grieve. The sea view from my room was absolutely spectacular, and the comfortable bed and amazing breakfast further added to my positive experience. Moreover, the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made me feel at home. Overall, I highly recommend Dukes Inn to anyone looking for a peaceful and rejuvenating stay. I look forward to returning and experiencing the warm hospitality again.

nothingI am pleased to give this hotel a perfect rating of 10 out of 10, as I could not find any fault during my stay. From the amenities to the service, everything was impeccable and exceeded my expectations. The attention to detail and the high level of care provided by the staff made me feel valued and appreciated. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking an exceptional experience and look forward to returning in the future.

The hospitality was superb ~ staff, food, rooms etc Staff were friendly and helpful ~ nothing was too much trouble./

The STAY was excellent HOWEVER our experience was spoiled by lack of communication through the central switchboard (?) emails?? We checked out on Sunday January 29th. On Monday morning my wife called the hotel to enquire if she had left her electric toothbrush in the bathroom of Room 4 to arrange return/postal cost. She could not speak to anyone but left a message on "reserve a room". She was told she would receive a call back. Nothing so she emailed a message later. Still no reply. I called on Tuesday morning and was told we would be contacted. Still nothing and to date (Friday 3rd February) still no reply. New toothbrush was purchased as we simply gave up with your shocking communication facility. Such a shame.
