It's a good hotel, nice attendances, location and clean.
But we weren't encouraged to pay £16 each for breakfast. It was very sparsely stocked, with no cheese or ham, few scrambled eggs, and the room wasn't clean, with food scraps on the floor.
However, we did have a great breakfast at the Stoke Village Cafe, which I recommend.
Great location, just a few minutes from the train station. Despite looking like an old building, the rooms were comfortable with good views from the window. It's basically in the town centre so you can walk to the nearby attractions. One negative was that they wanted to charge us for a late check-out.
our room was clean but did not smell fresh - it smelt musty . we also were cold with quite a thin duvet and no provision of extra blankets, we did arrive very late and as a result we did not go back down to reception to ask for more blankets or ask to swap rooms but did alert reception staff on departure. we used the leisure facilities - Pool was rather cool but a good size and clean. We have stayed in other Crowne Plaza hotels but this time felt this hotel did not quite meet the usual standards.
What a find,a jewel in the crown,on a weekend trip to Torquay I found this paradise, Hotel Peppers run by husband and wife team Sanjeev and Sabita,this hotel is amazing,what a location just up from the centre and harbour,it was a delight on entering,the decor is superlative,my room recently refurbished was immaculate,everything you can ask for nothing spared to make your stay enjoyable and my drop down balcony so easy to use giving a beautiful view,I can't fault it,highly recommended don't miss this one,honestly and the breakfast is to die for
The spa is incredible, so relaxing. Ideal location with about 10 mins walk to Harbour and to Meadfoot beach. Breakfast was on the small side but tasty. Staff are friendly and helpful. Rooms are okay, clean, but for 4* I’d expect a bit more like an iron in the room, toiletries, wash cloths etc. Didn’t sleep that well unfortunately as was woken up by people coming back to room as doors are loud and corridor floors are creaky. This let it down, but I’d return for the spa experience!
