    Spotless place with breathtaking view of the sea. Favourable and stunning location for our visit to a coastal zoo not very far from the hotel. Such beautiful area really close to a very pleasant restaurant as well as the nearby marina. Very attentive and reasonably good people working here, warm breakfast❤

    Dignified old Grandhotel with very friendly staff! Very nice sea view, white tablecloths and competent service

    The room was rather a single room and completely unsuitable for two persons! Bathroom and rooms urgently need to be renovated!

    The room was well-maintained and pet-friendly with a lovely view, working central heating and a balcony, had a good night's sleep. The hotel was in the centre of Torquay. Besides, it was a 10-15 minute walk from downtown, that worked for us.

    The friendliness of the entire staff, always beautiful view of the bay and the traditional English breakfast.

    In contrast to last year, the room was much more expensive, despite the same category. With a price difference of 400€ it is not insignificant, just because it was also smaller than last year.

    Very beautiful location with a beautiful view of the sea. The Imperial Hotel, like Torquay, has a certain grandeur and you notice that. Large reception room, parking, terrace, bar and dining room.

    Internal communication could be better. And you have to pay for parking.

    This is a lovely,welcoming hotel.The location is just fantastic with stunning views overlooking the bay,from the resturant.Staff were friendly and efficient. Food was well presented and cooked perfectly.,although did not eat an evening meal here.The location is great also,as a short walk leads to the harbour with some lovely resturants, and shops.We will definately be returning in the near future.This was excellent value for money.!!!

    Our room was spotlessly clean,and an adequate size,although the bathroom was a little on the small side.with a loose plastic toilet seat!. There was a large stain on the ceiling which needs decorating.These are very picky points but I think it is worth noting.Room no: 435 which overlooks the car park.
