It’s a nice hotel a little dated, breakfast was between 7.30 and 9.00, check out was at 10.00 so it leaves very little time in the morning as most hotels breakfast is 7.00 to 11.00 checkout at 12.00. Not much selection at breakfast it offers a buffet style yet there were no pastries or fruit on offer.

Get to breakfast early!

Disappointing experience at breakfast when we entered just before last sitting at 9am to be told we were too late and hot food had been removed. We did persuade the chef to return the food to the counter, but he was very obviously not happy! We had invited friends to join us at additional cost which was rather embarrassing. Otherwise an okay stay

Staff at the property were lovely, location is great, very central to Torquay. Only slight gripe is the lack of air con in the rooms, it was one of the hottest days in fairness, and the room was boiling hot all night.

A hotel in a good position with great staff

A good value hotel in a great position. The breakfast is OK but would be better with better quality ingredients and more staff. Due to the lack of staff there was a long Queue which could have been avoided. Also more staff would mean food would have been stocked better. The quality of the sausages needs to be improved - even my dog turned up his nose. Take a look at Beefeater suppliers as my dog loves those! Porridge would be a good addition and better quality bread. I felt the coffee was an instant rather than a fresh bean coffee. If all was better quality I would be happy to pay more.

The lift was broken taking 20 mins or more to get down stairs. The staff look misserable and it was full of pensioners staking claim to food areas sleeping in the lounge area. We was given an ironing board but no iron when we asked. Definatly over priced.
