    delicious breakfast

    excellent position for exploring torquay's parks and landmarks

    I had a fantastic stay with lovely hosts and a delicious breakfast that really set me up for exploring nearby attractions like Cary Gardens, just 500 meters away, and Torquay Harbour, which is only a short stroll of about 600 meters, making it easy to enjoy the beautiful views and landmarks of the area.

    clean rooms
    welcoming atmosphere
    parking challenges
    mobility concerns

    Clean, well-decorated rooms, welcoming atmosphere, convenient access to downtown.

    Limited parking availability makes life more difficult with cars!!! The steep hill access creates problems, especially for anyone with mobility issues or heavy luggage.

    Charming, Charming, Charming

    The moment I arrived, Lena's warmth made me feel at home, and I couldn't get enough of her fabulous breakfast options. My four poster bed was a dream—a slice of romance that added a unique touch to my stay! Not to mention the charming outdoor area where I enjoyed relaxing views, truly a little retreat in itself!

    totally recommend 🥰🌟

    comfy bedroom
    delicious breakfast
    cozy garden
    poor lighting

    I loved the comfy four poster bedroom and the delicious breakfast that kept us fueled all day. The cozy garden was a great spot to unwind after a long day, and the hot shower was just perfect. Just a heads up, the path to the entrance could use some brighter lights at night, but it didn’t take away from our stay! 🌟

    The Palms Guest House boasts elegant decor, with a charming garden area that makes it feel like a little retreat. The owners were incredibly accommodating, ensuring the property was easily accessible for seniors like myself.

    Fantastic breakfast options with delicious full English. Access involves steep steps, not ideal for those with mobility issues. Close to the harbor, only a short walk.

    elegant room
    delicious breakfast
    limited parking

    The breakfast options include an impressive variety ranging from warm fry-ups to yogurts and cereals, making it a standout experience. Rooms feature unique touches, such as the four-poster bed in our accommodation, adding a touch of elegance and comfort.

    While the central location is convenient, the steep hill leading to the hotel can be quite taxing on the legs, especially after a long day of exploring. Parking is a challenge with very limited spaces available, often requiring a walk to an offsite car park, which can be a hassle with luggage. the noise from water usage in nearby rooms created an annoying drone effect, particularly at night when revelers returned from pubs, making sleep difficult on weekends.

    would absolutely stay here again

    The location is super convenient, just a 5-minute walk to the city center. Lena was amazing and super friendly. The room had all the essentials like a flat-screen TV, fridge, and free toiletries. Breakfast was fresh and tasty with plenty of options. Loved the cozy atmosphere and attention to detail!

    Just an optimal selection for a weekend stopover in Torquay with very good value for money. Had a lovely English breakfast each morning which really hit the spot. Consider contacting them directly for the best rates.
