듀크스(Dukes Inn)

Terrific service, great value for money and lovely breakfast, with plenty of choice. Really handy for Sidmouth Town Centre and Seafront. Rooms spotlessly clean with everything you need. The only negative point I would say is, there's no lift to the bedrooms. (or I don't think there is) Couldn't ask for more!

Lovely and warm - -6 outside! Everything spotlessly clean and staff very welcoming. Can't fault our stay

Although I have visited Dukes for drinking (previously the Marlborough twenty years ago) I have not had to stay there as a hotel before. I got an online deal as there were multiple places I would have liked to try but I was very fortunate with the choice I made. My room was comfortable and clean with a little more room than I’m used to as a hotel standard. The location is excellent on the sea front and there is some ltd parking for residents at the side. Apart from the incredibly good value in online deal, what sets Dukes aside was the staff, friendly and helpful, all of them. I value efficiency first but the staff were both almost eager to please without fawning and providing service. Kudos for the breakfast excellent sausages (easy to get wrong) and perfectly cooked, to my taste, poached eggs. I have friends regularly staying in my beloved Sidmouth and I will be recommending Dukes

Management just didn't care and was spineless when challenged about the very slow service. No one seemed to be in charge and they was not nearly enough staff serving customers. Food was so slow arriving and they did not respond when asked about it. We left without eating, abandoned the order as too long to wait..

Very relaxing sitting in Dukes lovely conservatory, great atmosphere very polite and attentive staff. Such a choice on the menu , their daily special of hake was fantastic, delicious crumble for pudding, I would highly recommend. Very reasonably priced, a good choice on the regular menu also.

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay, staff were so welcoming as soon as I stepped through the door and through out the stay. Absolutely perfect sea view, just what I needed. Thank you :)

We visited here today for lunch, 6 of us plus our dog and had a lovely experience. Wonderful menu, beautiful setting and the most lovely staff. They were all so friendly, attentive and super efficient. We all enjoyed our food and drinks and loved sitting outside in the sun. Thoroughly enjoyed by all and looking forward to going back soon.

Stayed here for three nights recently for a family funeral. We really cannot express our thanks enough to the staff who looked after us so well. Each and every one of them were polite and helpful. Special mention to the Manager Dan who went out of his way to make sure my 87 year old father was catered for in room location etc. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Good breakfast with lots of choice. We ate in the restaurant twice, highly recommend but booking essential. There are only a few parking spaces but we were lucky enough to be able to park two cars for our entire stay. But there is a car park a couple of minutes walk away so it would never be too much of an issue. Overall a very nice stay and we will definitely book here on return trips to the very picturesque Sidmouth ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

For me the bar closing at 10 pm is not good. It means that residents are pretty well confined to their rooms after 10pm becuse there is no comfortable lounge area. Most people don't want to turn in at such an early hour. It is the only downside because in all other areas the accommodation and staff are A1.
