"The location is wonderful, lovely views of the beach across the road and train station next door with bus stops across the road."
"Very helpful, friendly staff, delicious food, luxurious hotel, loved my huge room and bathroom (best shower ever!), parking available on the street and in the garage, and on the seafront, about 10 minutes walk into town."

Location & Transportation
The Grand Hotel is located a short walking distance from local attractions including
“The location, directly across from the beach and an easy walk to Torquay's harbor, is a notable asset. I found the Victorian architecture and rotunda bar particularly striking, giving a sense of grandeur that's not often encountered. While some aspects show their age, its seaside charm and dog-friendly policy create a welcoming atmosphere.”

The room size suited us perfectly. It easily accommodated our group. The food at the Christmas event was AMAZING, especially the turkey. Parking proved straightforward (a big plus!). I found the staff friendly. They helped us whenever needed. it ALL felt very festive.
The room decor felt a tiny bit dated.

average breakfastdated furniture
I was expecting a bit more from the experience, ESPECIALLY. Regarding the food, the breakfast lacked variety and the quality was average at best. The room had a musty smell and the furniture seemed quite dated. I expected better given the hotel's reputation and what I paid. IT was not a comfortable night.
