Places to stay in Torquay

Of the towns which make up the English Riviera, Torquay is the liveliest, and great for classic British seaside holidays, complete with amusement arcades, rock, toffee apples and everything else you remember from your childhood. Accommodation choices mirror the great diversity, with ranges from historic inns to ultra-modern seafront hotels, many of which are within walking distance of the harbour, shops, and pubs. But it’s also a bustling hub for night life of all types with a Purple Flag awarded for its clean, safe and varied night time economy -  so whether you want modern bars, traditional pubs or lively clubs you’ll have a great time.

The wide range of Torquay hotels, B&Bs and self-catering means there are styles of accommodation to suit differing needs and budgets, while in nearby Babbacombe you’ll find a great collection of guest houses and boutique accommodation where you can escape from the bustle of Torquay.
