Staff lovely and checkin easy. Great sized room but couldn’t go out on balcony because of maintenance. Room service limited and no menu in room. Very old fashioned tired hotel and definitely needs a revamp. My whole group for work stayed so not just my opinion. Room service quality was good. And room view incredible. Also the bed was comfy. Bathrooms look like something out of the 1980s

Lovely hotel only 5 minutes walk from the harbour area. It's on the hill above the harbour, so there's an incline to get to it, but that means the views over Torquay are amazing. Staff were very nice and super helpful. Spa facilities are a little bit dated, but it looks like they are currently being updated. Breakfast buffet was amazing.. I'd definitely recommend this hotel.
