Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Amber House Hotel is often praised for its very good breakfast and its convenient location near the park and beach. Guests appreciate the well-decorated, spacious rooms, sometimes noting amazing views. The hotel provides a well-stocked bar area with an honesty box system, and some have found the hot water a bit slow to arrive when running the taps. With a short walk to Goodrington Sands and only 10 mins to Paignton, its location is ideal.

adequate, but not really good

lack of hot waterlong time
the lack of readily available hot WATER was a disappointment. i ran the taps for quite a while in both the sink and the shower. it took a very long time before any hot water finally came through. this felt wasteful and inconvenient.
