The Steam Packet Inn

This was a really pleasant trip to Totnes to visit my son. The weather was fantastic, the town delightful and the Inn was a lovely central location for our base. The en-suite room was decorated to a high standard and the staff were friendly and helpful. A particular highlight is the deck overlooking the river Dart however, the seagulls can be very eager to share the great food so the supplied water pistols are sometimes needed .

Pros.. - Lovely rooms. - Lovely products in the bathroom. - Clean and tidy. - Comfortable beds. - Great location on the river and short walk from central Totnes. Cons.. - I felt the welcome could've been better. The pub was busy when we arrived and I felt we were secondary to the pub customers. - Having fresh milk for my tea was nice but I disliked the shared fridge for guests in the corridor. I'd prefer a fridge in my room. - Car parking is a bit tight. - Restaurant menu is a bit limited, especially for vegetarians. If you stay more than one night it's a bit repetitive. Overall, we had a pleasant stay here and would definitely stay again.

Visited and stayed at the Steam Packet on Mother’s Day. Had a lamb roast which was delicious, staff all friendly and service was excellent. Plenty of drinks to choose from, also a selection of board games and cards, great if you need to keep little ones occupied. Stayed in one of the rooms above the pub, very clean rooms, comfy bed and pillows. Plenty of tea, coffee and bottled water. Hairdryer in room, Iron and ironing board available. Location is good, short stroll to town centre and train station is not far (walkable). This pub is under new management and so far so good. Would stay again and would recommend.
