Just got back from a four night break with our walking group. Lisa made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Our room was very clean and comfortable. The shower room/toilet was spotless. The food in the restaurant was excellent though the delivery needs attention especially for a large group all sitting down together. Breakfast was very good indeed... More

If you want a 'chain' hotel with their 'motorway-service-station' ambience and 'I only work here' staff then don't go to the Elmington. The Elmington is that rare bird these days. Family run by Liza, with the help of her sons, who puts her life and soul in to the place. Olde worlde service but with all the modern amenities you... More

Stayed here during July had the nicest stay imaginable! The Elmington was a three minute walk from the station, which was nice for the luggage dragging, and it was in a nice peaceful location - which is always a bonus. The staff are the hardest working people! The lady popped up everywhere from greeting to cooking, and it was nice... More

We were welcomed by the lovely Liza who made us feel at home in her lovely hotel. Our room was laid out perfectly and had double glazed windows, so was quiet too. An all round great experience. More

Dont waste your money on one of the chains get a real welcome from Torquays finest. Outside heated pool. More

This hotel appeared to be run single handedly by one lady who was very friendly. Unfortunately the hotel feels a bit stuck in the past. The communal areas were decorated in an oriental style which I actually quite liked because it was a bit different. The room itself, however, felt very old and tired with sad furniture, fittings and decoration... More

Close to the railway station but didn't hear a train. About 20 mins walk from the Strand ( town Centre). The hotel is very clean and the breakfast more than adequate in a beautifully decorated dining area. Plenty of parking space. If I have a criticism, then the bedroom walls are very thin which is inevitable where a large house... More

Ideally placed - just off the main route along the beach. Far enough away from the town to offer a bit fo privacy but close enough to walk. Super clean and friendly, great breakfast. More

We were looking for a short 3-day break just to grab some sunshone and a bit of sight-seeing and relaxation, but on a budget, so we decided on the West Country and looked for a reasonable B&B package. The Elmington as our choice as we had not visited Torquay before and the location seemed to be good. On arrival (the... More
