Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, close to the town center and within easy reach of all Torquay attractions. The rooms were cozy with a lovely view, but I wish the bunk beds were more comfortable. The service was fantastic, and the housekeeping was top-notch. The dining experience was delightful with great views, especially the sausages from the local butcher. However, I found the fries a bit underwhelming. The facilities were excellent, offering a lovely quiet garden to relax in after a day of exploring.
The hotel offers a great view and a very comfortable bed in the rooms, perfect for a relaxing stay. The space to play is a bonus for families. However, the price could be more budget-friendly, although the bed's comfort makes it worth it.
My stay at the hotel was delightful. The rooms were clean and comfy, with a great view. The friendly staff made my stay even better. However, the dining options were a bit limited. Overall, it was a great value for money.
