We have stayed at Ansteys Lea several times over the last few years and are always happy to return to this frendly and welcoming hotel. The recent refurbishment has added excellent facilities to the premises. The owner (Roy) is particularly helpful.

I've been staying at the Ansteys Lea Hotel for a few nights annually for the past 7 or 8 years, and always found it a very friendly place.

The hotel is close to Anstey Cove, Kent's Cavern and the next road down has a number of shops and restaurants. The hotel is an old Victorian build... More

Sorry, but in these modern times when one books a couple of rooms over the web one does not expect an e-mail three days before you are scheduled to arrive that advises you they have had a request to increase the size of a party and they are palming you off somewhere else. Does one get a say in it... More

We had a friends wedding in Teignmouth at the weekend and having looked at Travelodges etc in the area and not being impressed with the prices for what are basic rooms, we decided to search for something more useful for 9 people (4 adults, 3 teenagers, 1 child and a baby).

I've stayed here a few times. It's great value and the staff are very friendly. They have also recently renovated the hotel and the rooms are now top notch. Highly recommended!

Stayed here with friends, had a great stay. The hotel had been refurbished since my last stay we had a lovely new bathroom and a great home cooked breakfast. Have booked for the summer the new self-catering apartment which is very luxurious and spacious and looking forward to another stay at this lovely hotel.
