Great location, very close to central shopping/entertainment area. Can't quibble at the price for the location, nice welcome and friendly staff. Great shower and comfy bed. Didn't try the food so can't comment unfortunately. The only downside is the parking. Don't be fooled by the 'ample free parking available' the parking at the rear of the hotel is inadequate for...

My wife and I stayed 3 nights during the Agatha Christie Festival. Our room was well equipped with a four poster bed and included free wifi Internet. Inclusive breakfast encompassed all the usuals, but we were pleasantly surprised to find that they provided hot breakfast for vegetarians as well. Free Parking was a short stroll up the street. Hosts were... More

Tidy, comfortable twin room available. There are quite a few external stairs plus the flights inside, so if you are disabled or have problems with stairs, this will be difficult. There was a lovely comfortable lounge with plenty of room to spread out. The hosts were friendly and helpful. Good value for money, with a fitness workout included!! More

My partner and I booked 'The Palms' only because of the 'late rooms' mileage guide to the town centre. We wood definitely return this little hotel has all the charm and freindliness of a little B&B but has a lot more facilities. The breakfast was excellent, we didn't have an evening snack 'thought these are available - the one thing... More

My husband and I wanted a little UK half term break and decided on Torquay. After reading the good reviews on here I booked at The Palms. I went to their own website where I got a bargain on one night's free stay for the five nights I bookrf, meaning the average cost went down to around £39 per night... More

My husband and i stayed at The Palms Hotel for my 30th Birthday weekend. The parking was a bit tight but we were told of another car park just up the road if it was needed. We had travelled for over 5 hours. We were welcomed in and showed to our room. The room was clean with a shower room... More

Myself, my wife and 2 young children stayed here for 3 nights in August and were very pleased. We originally booked for the Arden Court (just up the road) but they suddenly 'went out of business' and left with no phone call to us or anyone who booked with them. Anyway, The Palms saved our bacon (which incidentally is a... More
