Stayed for two nights as part of a Leisuretime coach tour. Decent hotel, bedroom was more than adequate and flatscreen TV had range of Freeview channels. Food was of a decent quality but the service was painfully slow and rather disorganised. Spent an hour and a half having evening meal on the Friday evening and as the meal time had... more

We attended the Tantons Hotel for a family wedding last weekend! Firstly the hotel has no parking (which is no fault of their own) but makes getting unloaded - especially with small kids, a challenge. On check in and was asked to pay up front. (Which is not usually the norm) but we did so anyway. Apart from taking our... more

Ok, let me start by saying that I am not picky, and rarely go out of my way to write reviews. I stayed for 2 nights at Tantons as part of a wedding party. I will keep it short.

We had booked one night in the Tanton Hotel as a stop over and after reading the reviews and paying the price we had no expectations.The hotel was fine as long as you are not expecting 5 star.

Having just returned from a weekend stay at this hotel I must say how pleased I was. The hotel was clean , tidy and homely.I had a room overlooking Bideford Bay.The service was very good particularly during breakfast. The only downside was no parking but this wasn't a problem for my short stay. more

Friendly ,helpfull staff all you need in a room for a short to medium stay.Good size bar and restaurant for a hotel of that size ,some rooms with excellent views over the river.Only minor irratation, no phone connection between rooms as we traveled in a party this meant we had to walk to get messages to everyone. more
