The Imperial Torquay offers a comfortable base for conferences, exhibitions and events at the Riviera International Centre. After a long day inside a meeting room or exhibition hall, returning to sea views, dinner and a proper room can make the trip feel far less functional.
The Riviera International Centre is one of Devon’s major conference and event venues, with flexible meeting spaces, exhibitions, concerts and large-scale gatherings throughout the year. The Imperial adds a more relaxed coastal stay around that schedule, with Torbay just outside the working day.
Rooms
The hotel has 152 bedrooms across seven floors, with Cosy, Standard, Deluxe and Suite options. For business travel, the choice is useful: a short stopover, a longer conference stay, or a sea-view room that gives the trip a little more reward.
Breakfast is served in the restaurant, with cooked and continental options available. For early starts, speaker briefings or stand set-up, beginning the day at the hotel keeps the morning straightforward before heading across Torquay.
After the event, The Imperial gives the evening somewhere to land. The restaurant, bar and lounges offer an easy place to eat, meet colleagues or simply switch off, with coastal views that feel very different from a conference floor.
The hotel has a private on-site car park, charged per night, and secure garage spaces available at an additional charge where space permits. That makes arrival simpler for those travelling with event materials, overnight luggage or a tighter schedule.
Leisure
The spa and health club facilities can add a welcome reset around a business stay. A swim, sauna, gym visit or treatment can be a useful counterpoint to a day of seminars, meetings or exhibition walking.
Event accommodation often becomes purely practical. The Imperial gives it more shape: breakfast before the day begins, sea air afterwards, a drink with a view and the option to turn one night into something more comfortable.
