We are on our last night of our 4 night stay at Dukes; using it as a base to explore Devon & Dorset. While we were initially a little disappointed by the size of our sea view double, room 12, we have been won over by the friendly, helpful staff and the great food. Yes the room was compact but...

We stayed at Dukes for two nights, to use as a base to go Llama Trekking at Peak Hill Llama’s (separate review). We had a fantastic time – great service, tasty good value food, and one of the best locations in Sidmouth. Our room was lovely, light and airy, with great sea views and more storage than I’ve ever seen!... More

Pleasant lively Hotel. Staff helpful and polite. Room small but well appointed and clean. Food and service very good and reasonably priced. One downside pervasive smell of cooking oil throughout premises.

This was our first visit to Dukes, to celebrate our Wedding Anniversary over the Easter weekend. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. We arrived early and were able to get a parking space alongside, but it was very tight and my husband had to crawl out over the passenger seat. There was plenty... More

Stayed at Dukes for 1 night after watching Leicester Tigers v Exeter Chiefs (Chiefs ground is about 20 mins away). Great atmosphere in the bar and restaurant - the menu is interesting & contemporary very well presented, totally delicious and reasonably priced. The accommodation is comfortable and spotlessly clean. Crisp white sheets, white fluffy towels and nice toiletries. The staff... More

We stayed here overnight when walking on the coast path from Exmouth to Seaton. It is in a good location on the sea front and easy to find. The room was a bit compact but was clean and warm. We ate here - a good deal on the meal - steak for 2 and a bottle of wine for £30... More
