Wyndham Resort Torquay
The room was clean and the staff were friendly and very approachable.. the room was well decorated with modern furniture. The only thing I didn't like is that the slight smell inside the room. We enjoyed our stay and we will definutely come back again.

The Sands Torquay
We enjoyed our stay, my only complaint is the swimming pool on Saturday morning was full of swimming lessons. Only half of one lane was left for hotel customers.
