We came from the west midlands to torquay, 2 adults and 2 children aged 10 and 6. This hotel was perfect for us all. The kids always had something to do. We had 1 day of bad weather but we didnt care as there were alot to do in the hotel. My youngest (staying with me and my partner) went to the toby club and did somr clay making with matt who was lovely whilst my eldest went down to the bunker and went off with a few other children and the lady who ran the club. He loved it and we felt ok leaving him. The swimming was amazing, we went a few times, i used the sauna and steam room and loved it. Staff were lovely wherever we went. Around torquay is lovely too, we loved the crab catching which is a must to do. Overall we would definitely stay here again when we come back to Torquay.

First good things, the staff are nice n helpful, location is good if you want to spend time near beach and enjoy nearby amenties, bingo, entertainment were nice but no food allowed there, only drinks! Though food at Aztec bar was nice. pool and spa facilities were good, on first day, the pool water was very cold, 2nd day was less cold. Enjoyed firey n cold spa treatment (extra charges). Parking is free only if book directly with TLH(i saw a big sign in their sister hotel), non tlh bookings are to pay £10 per day, which adds up eq if you staying 5 days, i.e extra £50! Re: room, Our given room looked really old, tiles broken, door handle broken, some horrible smell, so we requested to change our room, the reception staff was helpful and offered us different room, this was little bigger n fresh, but same old tired room, broken bathroom tiles, black brown dirt mould around toilet seat, dirty windows, bathroom needs demolition and rebuilt,when walking around room n hotel squeaking noisy woods. Hotel decor is really old except the reception area, which seems to be recently renovated n looks nice compared to the rest of the hotel.
