The breakfast offered a fantastic variety, especially the fresh ingredients, with standout poached eggs and a delicious full English option. The location provides stunning sea views, enhancing the overall experience. the mattress was on the firmer side, which may not suit everyone's preference. while the room was generally pleasant, some minor maintenance could enhance comfort further. For those traveling with pets, the grassy area is a major plus.

It was just a nice choice for a weekend escape in Torquay with good price-value balance. The breakfast spread was really impressive, with fresh fruits and yoghurts that stood out. Make sure you're ready for some stairs if you’re on an upper floor.

The location is fantastic, right by the sea with stunning views from my Compact Double Room. Breakfast choices impressed me, especially the perfectly poached eggs, so delicious! The staff were super friendly and attentive, making me feel really welcomed. My room was clean and cozy, which created a warm atmosphere. the mattress felt a bit hard for my liking, making it hard to sleep well. The lack of soundproofing allowed noise from adjacent rooms to disturb me at times. Accessing the upper floors was challenging due to the steep stairs, which might not work for everyone. I'd love to return but hope for better mattress comfort and some noise management.

Stunning sea view balconies provided a perfect morning backdrop, making waking up a pleasure. The homemade breakfast options, particularly the perfectly poached eggs, stood out for being both diverse and satisfying.
The hotel has a bit of an older vibe. some decor appears dated, which might throw off those expecting modern aesthetics. Stairs to the upper floors can be a bit rough, especially when hauling luggage, and I noticed some noise disturbances from adjoining rooms during the night, which might affect light sleepers. Lastly, parking options felt a bit cramped, limiting convenience for those with vehicles.
