Lying in a region often referred to as the 'English Riviera' because of its mild climate, bright blue waters and semi-tropical flora, Torquay is well-renowned for its cosmopolitan atmosphere. Reflecting the resort's lively style, the attractive Torbay Hotel, standing in an impressive position on the level seafront, overlooking the marina and Princess Gardens, is in a superb location. Offering all the comforts of home (and more), with a stylish lounge bar, sun terrace, indoor swimming pool and entertainment room in which to meet new friends, there's plenty to amuse. With the beach, Princess Theatre, harbour and town centre shops lying just a few minutes walk away, there's plenty to interest you out-of-doors too!

Torbay Hotel
Lovely Hotel, in very good position on the sea front. Clean, comfortable room, bit of a walk from lift. Good food with friendly hard working staff. Small bar, again with friendly and helpful staff. Good entertainment with a tribute night of Nat King Cole. Hotel clean and comfortable but a bit too warm for my liking. Enjoyable stay, would definitively stay here again or any other Shearings Hotel. Well done to all the staff, well looked after. Despite being disabled the ground floor had good access.

Great Hotel
2nd stay within a month. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay again. Great position on the sea front. Bus stops in both directions right outside of the hotel. Good food, friendly staff, clean hotel. Be back in the spring. Very close to the shopping centre of Torquay. Easy access to and from Exeter and all the coastal towns, Brixham, Dawlish, Totnes, and the Moors, etc. Will I go again? you bet, can’t wait for the spring!

We visited friends staying at Torbay Hotel. My husband is disabled. There is a parking problem at the hotel but the staff were wonderful. They found us a parking place next to the hotel. The reception were efficient and polite. A credit to the hotel Thanks so much

A greak break
Stayed for a five day bay inclusive break, and could not fault one thing about the holiday. Had a front facing room which was kept very clean by Jane. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Bar staff were excellent as were the dining room staff. Had a great Birthday break with good entertainment, especially guest artist Paris, a fantastic singer. Shall definitely be going back, sooner rather than later.

Superb location but cold
Just returned from a 5 day break having taking my mum to Torquay for a short break. The Hotel is in a superb location for shops and buses and flat for walking. I upgraded the room to a sea view and the room was lovely however..... The hotel was cold, needed to ask staff to turn over the TV wouldn't allow guests to be trusted with the remote control and food quite basic. Staff in the dining room were excellent and could not be faulted. Should have been warmer I ended up leaving with a cold!
