TLH Toorak Hotel - TLH Leisure, Entertainment and Spa Resort

We stayed four nights in a terrace room, dinner, bed and breakfast. We were staying on a special offer and it represented great value. We have stayed dozens of times over the years and TLH is still a lovely place for a break. Yes, it needs a refurbishment, but the rooms are large and comfortable, the food is excellent (mushroom and spinach soup and lasagne stand outs). They were extremely busy when we stayed but the waiting staff in the restaurant worked incredibly hard and were so polite and efficient. For leisure we enjoyed the Fire and Ice experience. Only negatives were that the poolside jacuzzi was out of order, the Buckingham lounge was closed and the rooms are no longer serviced every day.

Lovely terrace room, a suntrap with sun beds. Good breakfast and helpful staff. What made our 3 day break special was the very friendly, very helpful general manager. This guy went above and beyond to please and alway with a smile for everyone. Thank you

Our second stay at the Toorak, and it didn't disappoint. We had a lovely large and airy room. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the bed was comfortable. Plenty of storage space, good mirrors, and everything you need for a long weekend. I particularly like the bath, so many hotels don't have them now. The food for breakfast and dinner was delicious and well presented, with generous portions. The staff are efficient and courteous. Location is perfect for the seafront and town, and its an easy bus ride to Brixham and Paignton.

This was a last minute break kindly offered to us by a friend who couldn't fulfil the booking because of illness and we enjoyed a relaxing 2 nights. As others have mentioned, decor wise the hotel could do with a little sprucing up but our big terrace room was comfortable and perfect to enjoy the lovely weather on the seating outside. The Toorak Hotel is one of 4 seperate hotels joined by a maze of corridors and unfortunately the furthest from most facilities which however are excellent including indoor and seasonal outdoor pool, bowls rink, games room, bar and show lounge. Parking is free if booked directly and if disabled parking is needed a reserved space is allocated. The hotel is in a good location to get to the beach, staff were very friendly, entertainment was good and we enjoyed the relaxing Fire and Ice experience.

I normally write my reviews down straight away on paper but I’m late uploading to Trip Advisor. This was our third time staying here for a weekend organised function. The other 2 times we were here we were unfortunate to have not very good rooms. This time we were lucky and put in a family room. Very large. It was dated, like stepping back into 80s but it was clean and bed was comfy and we looked out onto trees and the sun streamed in lovely. The food was very good and so too was the breakfast. Resident DJ was fun and entertaining. Short walk into town and down onto the front. Has got parking but a bit of a struggle to find a spot but we did manage. All in all it was excellent value for money and we had a great time.

Having stayed in the Toorak on many occasions I was quite disappointed this time , I appreciate the hotel is old and a bit tired but this time I felt they were cutting corners abit , our room 138 was so hot we had to have the window open and the fan on all night , the mattress has seen better days and the bathroom needs updating, but it was the standard of the food which dissapointed us most , having always chose the toorak as the food was nicer I can only say this time it was worse than hospital food , breakfast was good but the evening meal was awful , such a shame as it’s always been nice , would I return? Yes but would only do B&B
