- Breakfast was good, and dinner was excellent. Staff were friendly and efficient. There was a good-sized lounge for guests , and a large garden
Cons -
- Sorry but i loved everything our stay was just fantastic
- We had a "cosy double". It had adequate space, but next time I might pay more for a standard double.
- The duvet! I hate them! We wanted a room on the ground floor which we had. I was disappointed that we had to pay for an upgrade. When I booked it I had an ordinary room upstairs but when we checked out there was an addition for the room change that we had not been notified about. As the room was very dark,felt cold and the window was draughty it shoild have been a down grade!

All the staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean, the food was excellent but a bit too much if you had the cheese and biscuits! Lovely walk in shower, that's coming from someone who hates showers!

The meals were superb. The hotel grounds are very attractive. The staff are friendly and helpful. Overall the hotel is comfortable and relaxing.
No lift, so may be an issue for guests for some guests. The hotel is in an elevated location from the town centre, so something of a climb for guests on foot.
The food was excellent.Staff friendly and efficient Hotel very clean and well looked after
The room was tiny.The bed very uncomfortable The shower and bathroom very small
Beautiful, quiet, peaceful. Lovely gardens. Amazing food and very friendly staff.
Bedroom was a bit small with a view of a wall and a flat roof. The shower space was tiny and the water hard to regulate. Not enough to detract from the overall experience though.
Quiet location a lovely garden with plenty of seating non-smoking areas (though someone didn’t think it applied to vaping) signs stating No Smoking Here should be updated to include Vaping also.Apart from that incident the three days relaxing at the Hotel Balmoral were idyllic.There is a bus stop outside the hotel driveway with regular service to Torquay Harbour.Across the road the Hotel Osborne is located above Meadfoot Sea Road Beach and is welcoming to non-residents lovely terraces with cafe bar a more lively situation with beautiful views. Along the beach is a flat footpath approximately 1 kilometre which makes a nice promenade after breakfast.
Garden is above the road and some noise but not too intrusive the surrounding trees and birds more than make up for the traffic noise which is not continuous.
Location was excellent, 3min to the beach and cafe to the right when you walk out the hotel and 10min walk to Torquay town centre turning left from the hotel, with a bus stop just out side if you wanted to save yourself on the walk to town centre. Host was wonderful and very friendly, staff was impeccable, food was excellent and a different menu every evening, if you wanted a bit of peace and quiet then the gardens around the back were the perfect place to relax. I can’t fault the hotel excellent and would urge anyone wanting to spend a few days in Torquay to stay there…
My room was a little too small for myself but I was travelling solo and I’m used to a larger room.
Fantastic location, friendly staff, great food. We will be back.
It’s old world charm
The cosy room was very cramped the toilet / bathroom door hit the bed so did not open fully .we were sat outside near the restaurant one afternoon from the middle window above the restaurant came a torrent of foul words from a women in the room she was swearing at her husband / partner she came to the window looked at me and said what are you F- -king looking at we then left the area as had other guest in the garden not what you would expect ?? Also the restricted parking was a pain and although guest were asked to park within the mark lines some did not do this so what would have been a parking space was not available These points spoilt our stay to a degree
Good location, clean everywhere and good value
First room I was shown didn’t have a window looking out (was patterned glass), but changed room easily.
The location was excellent
I wasn't offered help to take my luggage to my room (2nd floor).I felt the staff were quite disinterested, were there to do a job but not to make your time special.
Really nice food and choice .cooked breakfast very good I was reassured very well the food was all nut free as I have an allergy
No negative things, maybe tissues in room would be nice and a bit more milk?
We really enjoyed our stay, the garden is very attractive and the communal areas provide comfort .The tea is served in pristine white china and is beautifully presented.The Dining room, the same attention to detail , freshly cooked breakfast awaits you with plentiful tea and coffee.
Our cosy room was a little small probably would help to have a stool which could go under the table , perhaps a mirror there too however, very clean and comfortable with nice view over the garden.
Very short bus ride to town
No air conditioning or fan, room was too warm, no mini fridge, no sockets near the bed to charge phones, stain in the shower tray, no cup or glass to rinse mouth in the bathroom, tv didn’t work properly, doors were ill fitted had to slam to close.
Adults only.Supurb location.
Not enough vegetarian options on the dinner menu.
