You just can’t beat the Imperial Torquay. Built on traditions and comfort. It maybe not quite what it was in its heyday but it has adapted to the modern guests and business environment it finds itself in. Keep it up and Best Wishes to you all

The room was very spacious and clean. No fridge, fan or usb points. Lovely big balcony. Staff on reception desk were helpful. Drinks at the bar were expensive. Breakfast was ok, but the hot food was burnt and dried out by the time we got down there at 9.15 am, so we went down earlier the following day. A walk down the hill to restaurants, bars and the harbour.

We booked a room with a balcony with a view across the bay it was it was exactly what was described, but yet far better than our expectations. My husband has to use a crutch at the moment to get around ,from the time we parked the car there was a young man enthusiastically wanting to help him with luggage extremely polite, that continued during our stay, The staff at breakfast were equally considerate ensuring the our table was in a convenient spot, There was a wonderful section of fruits, pastries ,juices , cheese, ham the list is endless, the cooked breakfast had a equally good selection all cooked and presented to a great standard, (which can be challenged) We would have no hesitation on recommend the hotel it far exceeded our expectations. ( both my husband and l have both had excellent careers in the hospitality industry which the hotel was unaware of)
