"Stayed in a lovely sea view room with a balcony. The room was very spacious and clean. The bed was massive and comfy. You could see the sea from balcony but was blocked abit by trees. Swimming pool and sauna was nice. Sadly the hot tub wasn't working during my stay. Breakfast was lovely and had lots of offer. Would stay again."

Which area of Torquay is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For travellers seeking cheap hotels in Torquay, areas slightly away from the immediate harbourside and main tourist strips, such as Upton and parts of Ellacombe, often present the best value. These neighbourhoods still offer good access to the town centre and attractions but at more appealing price points.

Upton, situated just inland from the main bay, provides a good selection of guesthouses and smaller hotels that are typically more affordable. Solo travellers will find it a convenient base, with bus routes easily connecting to the harbour and beaches, allowing for exploration without the need for taxis. It's also home to some local shops and eateries that offer more budget-friendly options than those directly on the seafront.

Families looking for value might consider parts of Ellacombe. While a bit further from the immediate buzz, this area often features family-run establishments that cater to longer stays and can be more accommodating for those travelling with children.
