Cavendish Hotel - Torquay

More like a three star than a two pleasantly surprised

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Went with family in July, some of the hotel is tired and needs attention, but on the whole for a 2*Hotel it was good value.There are upgraded rooms for £5 extra per night.We did not stay in the evening so cannot comment on the entertainment.The breakfast was adequate and we enjoyed glorious weather so enjoyed some time in and around the pool.The staff […] were friendly and very helpfu I would stay there again.The location of the hotel is a short walk from the beach it is on a bit of a slope. There is the dobby train just over the main road from the hotel that goes to the town, harbour etc and there is a bus service. Read more

Had a large family room Overlooking Bay across to Brixham. It was clean and tidy, bathroom in need of some attention though. Breakfast was okay and always severved quickly. Parking for the hotel was good and staff always friendly and helpful.Indoor pool was a bit small but the grandaughter enjoyed it. Did not use outdoor pool for weather resons although […] it seemed okay.Overhaul was able to enjoy a nice stay at the Cavendish with the 2 grandchildren. Yes it is a Old Hotel and can aways look like it needs a bit of attenion but we found it okay! Read more

Very disappointing overall the hotel is in need of desperate renovation. Bedrooms werent cleaned properly, lights didnt work beds were broken and very uncomfortable, wires hanging down wall, wallpaper hanging off the walls in bedroom. T bags, milk and sugar there were 2 in the room one for each of us for a 2 night stay and if required more wanted us […] to pay 5p each t bag, 15p milk and 10p each sugar. Carpets in room were filthy/black with dirt, bathroom dirty. We didnt even attempt to use the restaurant reason being 1 wasnt told where it was and after the lack of cleanliness of the rooms god only knows what that was like. Apparently according to hotel read up there was an indoor pool mmmmmm wonder where that was. When trying to speak to the reception there were 5 staff talking and laughing in the room behind reception with door open however waited 20 minutes before we were even acknowledged even then werent helpful. Overall not happy at all and i had no feedback off staff or acknowledgement of my complaints at all. never again Read more

Unfortunately after checking in and seeing the room i had been given i was not satisfied with the general condition /decor of the room ,also i thought the room was not clean enough ie dirty wash basin in the en-suite and generally a bad odour about the room/hotel .These things i felt were inappropriate for my family to stay in ,i returned to reception […] to inform the manager of my discontent and that i would not be staying i was reminded by management that it was a 2 star hotel and that i knew this at the time of booking ,i replied that even if it was 1 star i would expect it to be CLEAN .

The Hotel was very close to the beach and shops were walking distance. The staff were very helpful and always kind. And the service the staff offered was above average, and the food was good value especially the breakfast . The hotel had two pools and a games room for children so if it had rained we would have been able still to have a good time. The […] hotel provided free parking which in Devon is a must. Our room looked out towards the sea and the view was good. There were lots of places to visit close by and the shops on the high street provided all you needed if you liked shopping and there were plenty of gift shops. This is the first time I have stayed in a Hotel and it was a good experience. Read more

Prima colazione non compresa, molto rumoroso soprattutto per la chiusura delle porte.

Hotellet stod overhodet ikke i forhold til forventningene ut fra hva vi kunne se av nettet. Vi hadde bestlt 5 døgns opphold men forlot etter bare ett døgn fordi vi ikke var fornøyde. I tillegg til dårlig vedlikehold av hele hotellet, var det ikke trådløst nett på rommet som det var sagt, bare såvidt i resepsjonen. I tillegg var hotellet bebodd av stort […] sett bare pensjonister. Hotellets frokostsal var plassert i kjelleren. På oss virket det nærmest som en bunkers. Read more
