About the venue
The Mercure Paignton is a modern seafront hotel overlooking the English Riviera and Paignton Green. The town centre is on our doorstep. Torquay is 4 minutes by train from this Torbay hotel. Seaview rooms are finished to a high standard with spectacular views of the coast, perfect for relaxing family or romantic holidays in Devon. The hotel is conveniently close to beaches and the South West Coastal Path, while Paignton Zoo, Pier and UNESCO Global Geopark are nearby for memorable days out to suit all ages.
Interior design is inspired by the 19th-century seafront houses and UNESCO Global Geopark that shape Paignton’s history. Subtle touches nod to the glamour of the English Riviera, with natural shades bringing a botanical tone throughout the hotel. Guests can find state-of-the-art equipment in our fully-equipped gym. For a slower pace, head to our modern international restaurant for a relaxing meal; in the bar, our sun terrace is a perfect place to enjoy a drink overlooking the seafront and beach.
Mercure Paignton is enviably positioned on the English Riviera and Paignton seafront. Easily accessed by road or train, the hotel is the perfect position for exploring the Devon coast and countryside.
