    Consider asking the staff about local dining options, as the hotel lacks evening meals and it's great to explore the area.

    clean room
    comfy bed
    seaview
    mismatched decor
    stains on carpet

    The room was nice and clean, with a comfy bed. We had a decent seaview, but the decor felt a bit mismatched. The cleaning smell wasn't great, and there were some stains on the carpet and ceiling. it was a cozy place to crash after a long day. The bathroom had a few issues too, like some mould, but nothing too crazy. Breakfast was fine but lacking some options. Honestly, it met our needs but could use a little TLC.

    massive room
    indoor pool

    The room was massive and modern, with a lovely sea view. The indoor pool and jacuzzi were good, perfect for unwinding after a day out. The quirky decor added character, and we felt at home instantly.

    Comfortable stay with great location

    I really enjoyed my time here with local attractions just a short walk away and the staff were friendly which made the experience even better. The room was spacious and comfortable, equipped with teas and coffees which added a lovely touch. I found the dining options limited in the evening, which could be improved.

    friendly staff
    great breakfast
    outdated furniture

    Had an amazing time with friends! We caught a fantastic show at the Babbacombe Theatre. Enjoyed a lovely walk along the South West Coastal Path. The rooms were spacious, clean, and had comfy beds. Don't miss out on the great breakfast and friendly staff. Parking can be tight, so plan ahead!

    One downside was the outdated furniture in our room, which didn't quite match the photos we saw online. It wasn’t a huge issue, but it was a bit disappointing considering our expectations.

    nice views

    will be back

    The room was huge and super clean, with a private bathroom featuring a shower and free toiletries. Loved the electric kettle for tea and the spacious seating area. The views included the beach on one side and the Torquay hillside behind. The pool was nice, but needs some updates for a better experience.

    It was just a smart choice for a fleeting moment in Torquay with best value. The receptionist was very friendly and even upgraded us to a larger room with a lovely garden view. Make sure to check the pool hours for a relaxing swim.

    buffet breakfast
    beach proximity

    Great Location, Mixed Experience

    The buffet breakfast offered an impressive variety, perfect for families! we were disappointed with a lack of dining options during our stay and a somewhat unwelcoming atmosphere. Enjoy a stroll along the nearby beach for a beautiful day out!

    fantastic sea view
    perfectly cooked eggs

    Couples looking for a decent getaway

    The room was huge and beautifully decorated with a fantastic sea view. Breakfast was buffet style, and Renata cooked poached eggs perfectly, even when she was rushed off her feet.

    It wasn't cheap, but given the stay, I found it acceptable.

    two-day music festival
    helpful staff

    Had an amazing time with friends! We enjoyed a night of song and dance at the local theatre, followed by a fantastic two-day music festival at Torre Abbey Meadows. The room was comfortable, and the staff were super helpful. Breakfast was good, although a bit slow at times.

    free parking
    relaxing pool
    slow breakfast seating

    We had a fantastic stay in a spacious Executive room and loved the free parking arrangement! The indoor pool and jacuzzi were perfect for relaxing after a long day. The only hiccup was that breakfast could take a while to be seated, but overall it was a great experience! 😊
