Nice hotel very central, have stayed here a couple of times before good value for money, only problem we had this weekend the breakfast buffet had rang out and lots of people were waiting for food to come out of the kitchen, due to the restaurant staff probably not keeping the kitchen informed? On the whole though this is a good comfortable hotel .

Good location staff friendly but no double glazing
Location for the princess theatre was really good. Staff very friendly and helpful. The bedroom was warm and clean. Sadly the window wasn't double glazed so I could hear traffic and chatter as I was on the road side of the building.

Our room was clean and tidy, decor a little dated though. More beds than we thought, TV, kettle etc in there.
Staff were very friendly, approachable and helpful.
Hotel is right in the heart of Torquay.
Only fault lift is slow ha ha too lazy for stairs.

Very run down property. Bed uncomfortable and no option to have kingsize bed. Had to clean the bath before using to remove the scumline. Brick wall views out both windows . Asked to move rooms but the one offered was even worse and was only one night. Bonus was it vry close to princess theatre .

Very outdated. Not very clean. Definitely needs some work doing to whole hotel. It’s very much a hotel populated by the elderly. Entertainment every night we were there which was nice. Breakfast was poor. Staff were lovely.
