Great Views and Nice Room

Really lovely hotel with great views. Breakfast a real treat. Rooms are a very generous size and a sea view is beautiful. Don’t like the policy of authorising £150 on your bank card on check in. Not released for 5 to 10 days is not acceptable.

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

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.

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

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.

We loved our stay with you. The hotel was so well kept and so clean everywhere. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and airy. I like the touch of water provided each day and the small packets of biscuits. We loved sun bathing by the swimming pool ,but some of the sunbeds could do with a good clean, which only takes seconds with a pressure washer. We wished we had a longer stay, but we work for several charities and don't have much free time to ourselves. My only complaint is the rather strange Restaurant Menu; lamb dumplings and pork chop marinated in Harissa ,Greek chicken gyros !. We are in Torquay ,not Athens ! Several guests were complaining to each other, as not happy with the menu ,not what you would expect from a hotel of this calibre. We hope to return soon for another relaxing break. please put us down on the list for any special offers etc.

Beautiful hotel stay with some recommendations

It was a lovely stay with mostly positive feedback. The pool was fantastic. We had an amazing time relaxing and swimming. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The family room was spacious, clean and comfortable. It was really hot in the rooms but a 2nd fan was given and all was sorted. I have two complaints, which o think are really important which is why I’m mentioning them. Firstly the 150£ deposit should be made clear before booking, and is quite excessive. I only brought along a small amount of spending money so thank goodness I was able to put it on my credit card - however if I never had a credit card what would I have done?? I travel for work and have never had to put in such a large deposit. Secondly the hotel menu was very expensive for very standard food :( For the prices you charge food should be far above average. Luckily the little cafe on the beach did some dinners and we were able to eat there partly All in all this is a fantastic hotel and I would love to come back but really hope you consider your customers recommendation to make an even more amazing hotel 😊 Thanks for having us
