    I received an upgrade via Booking.com on my room, which was on the second floor with a balcony and stunning panoramic view of the sea. The room was very large and clean with comfy linen on the bed. High ceilings and period features took me back in time. The rest of the hotel was also beautiful inside and well maintained. Breakfast was a special treat and the buffet selection was wonderful. All the staff were great as well. I was there in low season - so it was lovely and quiet.

    The apartment was stunning, luxury and dog friendly! It’s also so roomy, even better in real life than the stunning pictures. Rach room is stylish and beautiful, beds/bedding lovely, so clean and comfy and two fantastic bathrooms! Torquay 20 mins stroll downhill. Wonderful!! Bonus also, for that quick early/last walk field just 2 mins over road with sea views.

    Gorgeous boutique hotel. We got a complementary room upgrade, which was fabulous. Our upgraded room had the most amazing en-suite bathroom. the hosts Karen and Ian were welcoming and friendly. As we stayed over the Easter weekend, we were left surprise Easter eggs on our pillows, which was a lovely, thoughtful touch. I would highly recommend a stay at The Westgate and will definitely be staying again whenever we re-visit Torquay.
