The Ravenswood Hotel  

Never having been to Torquay before (we are in our 70's), we were keen to see if the Town had managed to retain its reputation as "The English Riviera" whilst, at the same time, the traditional, non-modern hotel, of which The Ravenswood is one, still formed part of the accommodation facility available. In our view, both Torquay, and The Ravenswood, passed muster and we would have no hesitation in recommending to any body having our requirements, both the town and hotel, the proprietor of which was extremely welcoming and helpful.

A good clean budget hotel, owners of hotel very friendly and helpful, good quality breakfast would stay again

Our friends room wasn't on suite, as we only stayed three nights so wasn't a massive problem

An all round 10 out of 10 little guest house. Admittedly I got a freebie upgrade to a double en-suite for the same price as my booked single which maybe skews this review but nevertheless I found this place perfect for my requirements. The central location is ideal for everything you could want to do around Torbay. The harbour is just down the road, as is the main shopping centre. For travel further afield the Strand bus stops are similarly located. Immaculate room, comfy bed and spot-on WiFi suitably impressed me as did the general welcomeness of the hosts. Good breakfast too.

A great place to stay. Really friendly staff (I managed to lock myself outside at 2am and the lady still had a smile when she had to get up to let me in! Sorry again for that!). Good value for money. Room was comfy and homely. En suite was small but had all you need for a budget hotel. Breakfast was good. Location is good too, I was on my own so wanted to be able to walk everywhere. The free parking was really handy, only problem is there are restricted number of spaces but I was lucky and had a spot all three days I was there. The free wifi was good in my room too. Its not The Ritz, but if you like good value in a homely guesthouse with friendly staff, id recomend it.

One of the parking spaces was so tight, I was glad there was a mix up with the rental car and I had a smaller then booked car.

Room was very clean and tidied on a daily basis. All towels were changed on a daily basis as requested. Breakfast was excellent and nothing appeared to be any trouble to the staff.

We required a central location so we could walk to shops & harbour without breaking the bank & where very pleased with our choice. Typically guest houses in Torquay are old & a little tired but if you accept that our room was great. A family room with the boys bed in a separate room with his own flat screen freeview ideal. Tea making & towels each day & free parking I would have no hesitation in recommending this friendly guest house.

We enjoyed our stay at the ravenswood hotel the food was lovely and the staff was very friendly and the location was brilliant .

There was nothing we did not like about the hotel.

Great position and comfortable.

Not a complaint, just a word of warning - parking not guaranteed and only 4 spaces for hotel.

Room was very clean and tidy, nice staff, perfect location to discover torquay and the torbay
