“2 Night TWIXMAS break”

The room was described as Cozy Sea View. It was quite small but had everything we needed plus more. The shower room is also quite small but again is fully functional and with excellent quality shower gel and hand wash. The towels are large and very clean. The bed itself is very comfortable and the tea and coffee making supplies and biscuits are generous. The sea view was beautiful across the lovely gardens and over Torbay. The meals are the thing that makes this hotel so special. Breakfasts were fantastic, individually cooked and piping hot and an extremely good selection. But it’s the dinner which is amazing. Five course dinners are the norm and the quality of the meat and the portion sizes are first rate. No mushy tasteless veg here, everything perfectly cooked. Great dessert selection as well and also cheese & biscuits. It is obvious that this is a hidden treasure of a hotel with loads of repeat business guests as the waiting staff knew many of them personally. The staff are a delight. They seem very happy with their employment and certainly go out of their way to make guests very comfortable. Would I go back there? You bet – we are going to book up for mid 2017. Oh I forgot, a bus stop right outside the hotel not 25 yards away (no 64) takes you right into Torquay Town Centre – perfect. Leave the car and let the bus take the strain.
