    The total experience was enjoyable, I would definitely recommend. Reasonably clean hotel, I enjoyed very amiable staff. The location was lovely, out to the beach, it's a plus. The breakfast was freshly prepared - a good choice of dishes.

    Exceptionally clean hotel in a traditional building near to a taxi, the beach and the shops and restaurants and the harbour and beach. Central heating, an iron, and coffee and tea making equipment available in the premier twin room. The pool area is heated too. Great internet, parking on-site. Great location to get into town via local buses and rooms overlooking garden. Plus, 15 minutes drive from a coastal zoo.

    Our last-minute decision to head to Torquay led us to The Purple Tree, and what a perfect stay it was! From the friendly owners to the delicious breakfast, everything was just lovely. The pool area and games room were definite highlights, providing plenty of relaxation and entertainment. The location was convenient, with easy access to nearby stations for exploring. The rooms were clean and comfortable, making it feel like a home away from home. a traditional family-run hotel with a personal touch and great value for money.

    Would recommend this hotel.
