"Staff were very friendly & helpful, room was clean and it was quiet despite being quite full. One daily our room wasn't serviced but staff brought fresh supplies quickly. The wet room is a bit too wet as the water overspills the drain but it was a good shower. Breakfast is unspectacular but decent. The bed was comfortable but pillows far too soft. Having great big windows we expected a great view but the windows were dirty and one window unit was misted, which was a shame. Overall it is very good value and I would stay again, though disappointed that dogs are allowed."

The Grand Hotel

The Grand Hotel

8/10 Good
"The Grand Hotel is a historic property with excellent staff and great food, and it's very handy if you're travelling by rail to or from the adjacent Torquay station. The recent renovation of the indoor pool, changing rooms and spa facilities was long overdue and provides a now clean and welcoming experience, although the arrangement remains sub-optimal from a hygiene perspective with guests and staff having to walk poolside wearing shoes to access the changing rooms. The lobby and bar area are well-appointed and welcoming, the restaurant serves fantastic food but is somewhat shabby with dated decor and fittings. The breakfast buffet is extensive with everything you could imagine, and even includes a gluten free section. On the upper floors, the rooms, corridors and staircases remain very dated, with 1980s bathrooms, peeling window frames, and old radiators. Some updates to furniture, interior decoration and modern TV sets do little to offset the sense that this a dated property long overdue for comprehensive refurbishment. One of the two lifts was out of service for the duration of our stay. Nevertheless this is a very welcoming and pleasant place to stay, and the pool/spa facilities are perfectly decent following the recent works. It's also great value, and I suspect that if it were comprehensively renovated to contemporary 4 star expectations I would probably not be able to afford it!"

"Exceptional Stay with Fantastic Staff! ​⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5) ​I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Passage House Hotel Holiday Apartments, and it exceeded all expectations! ​Location: Situated in a great location, it provided the perfect base for exploring the surrounding area while offering a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. ​Accommodations: The room was exceptionally clean, modern, and very comfortable, making it feel like a true home away from home after a busy day out. ​Service: What truly sets this place apart is the team. The staff were fantastic and genuinely friendly, always going above and beyond with a welcoming smile to ensure we had everything we needed. ​Overall, it was a truly wonderful experience. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and welcoming getaway! ​"A wonderful, clean, and comfortable retreat with hospitality that makes you feel instantly at home.""
