Lovely place, but corridors were hot and pool was shut on Sunday. Good meals.

Dear Danny, Thank you for your kind consideration in sharing this feedback with readers and the team at The Sands Torquay. Our swimming pool had to be closed on Sunday for urgent and unexpected repair works that were completed within twenty four hours. However, the disappointment to so many guests is absolutely understandable and regretted. Appreciate the information on corridor temperatures also. We shall address. Hoping to have the pleasure of welcoming you back in future when we can leave you with memories more befitting The Sands Torquay. With thanks and apologies once more, David David G A Perry General Manager

Looking at a car park view”
All the pics show photos of the lovely golf course view. Ours was a view of the car park so a big disappointment. Apart from that the facilities are great. Gym best I have seen in a hotel. Pool was good indoor and private except between 4-7 when children do classes. The restaurant meal did not appeal so we found a lovely restaurant on the Esplanade that catered for our way of eating. We did enjoy our stay and looked like lovely walks close by.

Dear Alan, Thank you for your valued feedback and delighted to learn that you both enjoyed your stay with us at The Sands Torquay. Our gym is amazing if I say so myself. We really strive to describe our rooms and suites accurately. Our two main rooms are Urban Classic - offering urban views (albeit over the car park) and Golf Classic - with views over the championship Golf Course. Apologies for not aligning expectations on this occasion. Hopefully our new menus will appeal should we have the pleasure of welcoming you back in future. Glad to hear that you found a great dining experience nearby. With thanks and best wishes, David David G A Perry General Manager PS For Readers. Urban Classic Rooms and Suites allow for sunset views through trees thriving with bird life.
