A quirky experience, with a great breakfast, helpful staff and a relaxed atmosphere.
Pros:

Colourful retro place! We found out there was a pool there too, though we didn’t use it. The breakfast room was a bar - charming surroundings to eat a wonderful hot and tasty breakfast.

Fantastic stay, very friendly and lovely atmosphere
Pros:

Here at the moment, very friendly hotel in perfect location approx 5 min walk to Torquay harbour (up a hill). Griffin bar downstairs with live music every Saturday and sunday. Very clean room with really comfy bed and pillows, very soft towels. Small drinks fridge and kettle. Exceptional value for money. Tasty cocktails with cheap offer every day at all times inc weekends. Free pool table. No food after breakfast but the bar allows takeaways to be brought in. Outdoor pool is heated.
Some areas of hotel could do with a bit of updating but this has not affected our stay in anyway.
Hotel and bar do allow dogs, there are accessible rooms available but most rooms are up some stairs.
Fantastic stay so far, highly recommend.

Voor deze prijs een goed hotel, met vriendelijke medewerkers.
Pros:

Bijzonder vriendelijke en behulpzame mensen. Uitstekende locatie vlakbij centrum (weel steeds een flinke wandeling de berg op). Gratis parkeren.

Cons:

Het pand, de inrichting en zwembad maken een oude en wat versleten indruk. De kamer was klein, de badkamer erg klein.
