The Imperial Torquay

8/10 Good

"Hotel main areas were well kept. Bedroom was a little tired, and needs tidying up/ updating. Breakfast was really good, so was the evening meal. Cost for the room was very reasonable. Staff were friendly and helpful. Parking cost £10 a night. Question would be would we stay again, the answer is yes."

Mercure Paignton Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was a quiet break for my wife and I in a nicely presented hotel. The staff were helpful and polite"

Hotel Indigo Torquay by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"We had a room overlooking the sea, but there was only one chair to sit on to have a cup of tea sitting by the window. The door was very strong and was difficult to get the wheelchair in. A hook to hold it back would be useful. The breakfast was excellent. You are quite a way away from the town, but buses are frequent. Dinner is quite expensive in the dining room. Fabric napkins would be nice in the evenings. Staff are all very well trained"

Leonardo Hotel Plymouth

8/10 Good

"Helpful friendly staff, great cooked breakfast, room was clean & comfortable. It ticked all the boxes. However the hotel is situated by a busy main road and you can hear the noise of the traffic at night ! Ear plugs needed !"

Abbey Sands Hotel

"Very spacious rooms plenty of parking (October). Loved the pool"

Lincombe Hall Hotel & Spa - Just for Adults

8/10 Good

"Disappointed to find things broken in the room on check-in and dirty drawers and carpet. No where to out toiletry bag in bathroom. To be charged £15 a night for parking as we didn't book directly is ridiculous as therebis free parking on the road outside and a m permit carpark next door that charges less."
