8/10 Good
"The Imperial Hotel is in an excellent position. It is clean and the staff were all helpful. We had a standard room which had a comfortable bed, the bathroom was a disappointment and needs an up Grade. Parking was charged at £6 a night."

Hotel Du Vin Exeter

Hotel Du Vin Exeter

8/10 Good
"A ten minute walk from the centre. The car park was small and expensive. The property itself is attractive and the room was clean and comfortable, if not particularly spacious. Was given a £7.50 voucher for a drink as I was willing to forego my room being cleaned after the first night. A good range of cocktails in the bar. The bar itself did feel a little like it was taking up a space rather than being a focal point of the ground floor. But it was a pleasant stay."

8/10 Good
"The room was fairly clean although furniture has seen better days. Seafront views are spectacular. Hotel is a 10 minute walk to city centre which is nice if you want to try various places to eat, also there is a nice south west coast trail near by if you fancy a nice walk. The stay was relatively lovely although I would like to stay in other places with a seafront view if I’m to visit Torquay again"

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is only about a year old so the building and all the fittings and furniture are in as-new condition. The staff were all cheerful and a delight to work with. The food was good both breakfast and the evening meals. The location right on the foreshore is attractive with lovely views of the sunrise but it is well away from the centre of Torquay. When I arrived Google maps had the location 300 metres too close to the main part of Torquay so you need to check this before setting a route."

8/10 Good
"The room was a good size, with everything you need. It was a bit tired with the carpet threadbare in places and the bathroom needing a deep clean, paint and fresh mastic. The food in the restaurant was reasonable, but the service was slow and it was clear they were understaffed and getting things wrong."
