Greeting from staff was welcoming and informative. I could not use their suggested car park due to height restriction and they were helpful as to alternative arrangements, although unfortunately this does then add onto the cost of your stay, per 24hours. Worryingly, from talking to other staff I got the impression Torquay may have high crime rate, which made me feel uneasy about open air car parking, Room was far better than expected, spacious and clean. I think we may have been upgraded due to time of year and hotel not being fully booked, which was an unexpected bonus. Despite hotel being very well looked after, from a cleanliness point of view, it did appear to have some damp and maintenance issues in the entertainment bar area, but this did not affect our stay. We did feel our booking was good value for money. Regarding the town shopping area, sadly as with many places, there were empty shops and felt run down, on the other hand, seafront area appeared to be well maintained and beach area looked nice. Overall we enjoyed our stay

Great location, a few issues
I booked a family room. Great size for 3 people. We were looking over the harbour. Great view. Shower in my room was not good, no pressure. Crack on the floor of the shower, felt like I was going to fall through. Bath mat provided was mouldy and disgusting to stand on.

First room 414. Friday 24th. Went to the restaurant at 18.45 “have you booked a table sir? “No I didn’t know!” The chef couldn’t accommodate us and I was flabbergasted. Dined at Weatherspoons. I asked reception on our return regarding food refusal “shortage of staff, only 9, yes 9. Taking into account only 10 eating. That’s almost a personal chef for all…. Room 414. Freezing cold, radiator didn’t work. Window wouldn’t shut properly. Saturday morning 25th temperature was -01c. Given a superior twin room 429. Heating good. However the shower was deplorable. Goodness knows the last time the glass and tiles were cleaned throughly. The shower mat had black mould patches, never cleaned. We didn’t use it. I will provide pictures, hopefully later in this review.
