We stayed Friday and Saturday night, we only booked on Friday afternoon, but that wasn't a problem. It was really nice. From the moment we arrived Alex on reception was polite and informative, then every other staff member we walked past all had a smile and a hello for us. It's amazing how big the little things are. Breakfast was... More

Not an atractive building but friendly staff at reception. Lots of stairs and twists and turns and the decor needs updating but could be worse. Single bedroom was clean as was the bathroom which would have been improved by having shower gel/shampoo and better towels. Working on the theory that you get what you pay for then the food was...

We have just returned from The Tor Park at Torquay on a Shearings 5 day inclusive coach holiday. What a difference 5 months makes.! We were there in December 2012 and yes the hotel was a little tired but now what a difference! New chairs and a newly decorated entertainments area. The hotel had been refurbished.

Was worried by all the negative remarks but my wife and I found this hotel to be perfectly acceptable for the price you pay. The food was ok except for the last night when there were far too many potatoes and not enough green vegetables and the pudding (pears and ice cream) was almost inedible, the pears being extremely hard!...
