The Victoria Hotel & Source Spa is a luxury four-star hotel overlooking Lyme Bay and the Jurassic Coast in Sidmouth, Devon. Opened in the early 20th century, the hotel retains much of its traditional seaside character, including oak panelling, an original sweeping staircase and distinctive turret rooms. Its position on Sidmouth’s Esplanade makes it a relaxing base for exploring East Devon’s coastline while remaining within walking distance of the town centre.

Accommodation ranges from comfortable standard rooms to larger deluxe rooms and suites, with views towards the hotel grounds, Sidmouth or the sea. Many rooms combine classic furnishings with modern comforts, while guests receive complimentary access to the hotel’s leisure facilities throughout their stay.

Dining is centred around the AA Rosette-awarded Jubilee Restaurant, where guests can enjoy refined evening meals in an elegant setting. The more relaxed White Room serves lighter dishes, Sunday lunches and afternoon tea, while Bertie’s Bar provides a comfortable spot for drinks before or after dinner.

The Source Spa features a heated indoor swimming pool, hydrotherapy spa bath, aroma sauna, steam room, gym, relaxation area and two treatment rooms. The hotel also has a seasonal heated outdoor pool, children’s pool, tennis court and an 18-hole putting green.

Golfers can play at nearby Sidmouth Golf Club, an undulating 18-hole course originally designed by five-time Open Champion J. H. Taylor. The elevated layout overlooks the Regency town and offers attractive sea views from several parts of the course.
