Torquay has been one of the most desirable locations for holidays and breaks since Victorian times, and it’s easy to see why! The so called ‘English Riviera’ offers all of the glamour and style found abroad, from designer boutiques to pavement cafes and bistros not to mention the exception beaches and mild climate.
Overlooking the bay you will find the Barceló Torquay Imperial Hotel, an impressive modern hotel which is the perfect base from which you can explore the local area and attractions which include the Eden Garden Project and Cockington Court and Country Park.
The hotel has 152 bedrooms, including 77 Premium rooms, all of which are facing the sea to give you the very best view, and 17 Suites. There is onsite parking available for a small daily charge and it is even possible for dogs to stay in the Garden Rooms for a one off charge per stay.
If you decide to do something more active than simply enjoy the stunning views then there is a fantastic health and leisure club which offers both indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a fully equipped gym and a spa to really help you relax after a long workout.
The Regatta Restaurant is on hand to serve you with exceptional quality food. The dress code here is ‘smart casual’ and while you dine you can enjoy the views out over the bay, not to mention the fantastic Imperial Band who perform live music every Saturday night. For a more informal affair, why not try the family friendly Conservatory & Lounge area, which also offers a children’s menu.
