Wow!

We had a beautiful room with a beautiful view. Nothing was too much trouble and we were made to feel at home. The hotel turned our trip away into a great trip away and we will certainly book again next time we go to Torquay.

One of the best hotels!

One of the best hotels we have stayed at, from a lovely welcoming when we arrived to when we departed. Good nights sleep in a comfortable bed, all very clean. Breakfast was superb.Towels provided for the swimming pool. If there’s one little gripe it would be bath/shower was very awkward to get in and out of, due to lack of space. We had an economy inland room, so maybe this is why. I would like to thank all the staff for a fantastic weekend. We would return. Looking forward to our next stay.

Great little stay!

We had a great stay at The Osborne hotel for New Year’s Eve, the location was perfect on the beach & a short (taxi ride) into town for dinner. The hotel was clean, staff very friendly & breakfast was good. The inside pool area was a little tired but I understand they were due to close for two months for some painting/refurb works. Would definitely go back, the children loved it

Average Stay

Perfectly adequate. Pleasant staff. Room average, a bit dated. Interior a bit faded and tatty once out of reception. Breakfast ok, juice watered down but cooked breakfast fine. A lot of signs about parking a bit draconian and not very welcoming and reserving £150 on my card for incidentals also over the top. Overall nothing to complain about but quality and welcome feel is pretty poor

Lovely friendly hotel

All the staff we came in contact with were all so friendly and helpful, room was clean and comfy. Breakfast was excellent, parking was free which is something you don’t find very often. Only issue is the swimming pool changing rooms, one shower, one changing cubical so not practical if busy. Overall tho I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Torquay, we would defo stay again

The atmosphere was very welcoming, as were the staff. The quality of food was excellent. The pool was really nice and encouraged me to get back into the water. Our view of the sea was excellent but even had we not had that, the hotel is very attractive and pleasurable and relaxing to be in. We enjoyed it very much.

Loved the room and the view, staff were really friendly and helpful and the food was excellent. One issue was that there was a wine stain on the carpet beside the bed, I reported it to the cleaning staff as I didn’t want them thinking it was our fault. They cleaned the room each day but did nothing about the stain on the carpet. The other issue was the water pressure, there was a lovely big bath but it took an age to fill up

The hotel building and location are lovely. The main issues we faced at the hotel was they had a wedding reception there, we were not informed of this when we booked. Certain areas were restricted such as the outside terrace that we would like to have used. We dined in the restaurant, however the customer service received was not to the standard expected from a 4* hotel, as staff’s main focus was dealing with the wedding guests, we felt pushed aside and as if we was intruding. The hotel is quite expensive so not being able to experience the facilities is very poor and we feel ripped off Breakfast area taken over by wedding guests, noisy and not the experience it should of been. The receptionist did not even ask how was your stay when checking out!! Standard customer service not given !!

The facilities at the Osborne are excellent, set in idyllic spot overlooking the sea & it felt a very safe environment with multiple activities to keep our family entertained, the outdoor areas were very well kept, housekeeping were a brilliant all round team. Food wise, there was a very good variety on breakfast, with nice ingredients. Negatives: Difficult to park on the grounds but mainly due to wedding events being held there, water pressure low made for difficult showers, doors and windows need some attention (meaning squeaks and bangs were unavoidable,including our door which was very difficult to open and close without waking up the entire floor) .overall excellent stay but Torquay itself has become extortionate with poor quality food at silly prices, activities around the area averaging £65 for an hours event for 2adults and child, can understand why it wasn’t busy,even in August. The hotel is also expensive but you can understand with the facilities it has to maintain.
