“The Grand Hotel in Torquay certainly earns points for its seaside location and incredibly kind staff, especially the team at reception and Felix at the 1881 Restaurant. I note the availability of both indoor and outdoor pools, plus the hotel's dog-friendly policy, making it suitable for different travel styles. The hotel's parking situation could pose challenges; however, its charm and dedicated service are likely why many guests, like myself, would consider returning.”
