We chose this hotel as we knew we'd be arriving late at night and needed a hotel with 24 hour room service to enable us to get a late bite to eat. After telephoning the hotel we were reassured that they could provide this service so we went ahead and booked in for the night. Our family of 2 adults... More

Dear telephone-man-one, Thank you for recommending us on Trip Adviser. I appreciate your feedback. We are about a 20 minute walk down to the harbourside and bottom of town. You taxi fare sounds excessive... I hope you'll visit us again soon. James More

Just returned from a weekend at the Best Western Gleneagles. I was with a party of 15 and I can honestly say the food and staff were excellent, we all thought it fantastic value for money and had a wonderful time, there were a few issues with the weather but the staff coped admirably. Wouldn't hesitate to return. More

Art deco downstairs. Room shabby, tired & old fashioned. Heater noisy, wind blowing & whistling through windows, draughty. Cracked sink. Appallingly shocking shower. Still using blankets!! Had to ask for extra blanket as very cold. Very poor value for money. Service & breakfast great, only redeeming factor. Wouldn't recommend, would never re-visit. More

Just back from a few days away at this lovely hotel. It was very easy to find on a quiet street. We checked in early and found we had been upgraded to seaview rooms and mine was a double rather than the single we had booked which was a lovely surprise. The manager and staff at this hotel are really... More

Ok hotel - quite far out of Torquay; not a walk away at all. Very helpful staff and a decent sized room (once we'd swapped). The room was a little run down and could do with new soft furnishings. Walls VERY thin - could hear all sorts of water/plumbing noises and was woken up by talking at 5am one day... More
