Torbay Chess Congress - Venue
We are delighted that the 2022 Torbay Congress will be held at the TLH Toorak Hotel, Torquay.
The TLH Toorak Hotel is located on Chestnut Avenue - just across the road from the Riveria International Centre, home of the 2022 British Chess Championships. The hotel has a free car park, and if this is full Congress participants may use the car parks in the adjoining TLH hotels (the Derwent, the Victoria and the Carlton). If you use one of these car parks, you should give your vehicle registration number to Reception at the Toorak when you first arrive. The hotel is about 650m from Torquay Station - about an 8 minute walk.
The Congress will take place in the Chatsworth Suite, and the adjoining Garden Room will be available as an analysis room. Depending on numbers, further rooms in the hotel may be used to provide additional playing areas.
With a spacious bar and a luxurious dining room, indoor swimming pools, a luxury spa, a gym, and free WiFi in all public rooms, there is no need for Congress participants to leave the TLH Leisure Resort - notwithstanding the delights of Torquay.
The TLH Toorak Hotel is offering early dinner for Congress participants at 5.30pm on the Friday night. On the Saturday and Sunday a special chess light lunch will be offered to participants (orderable before the start of play each morning).
For Congress participants, we have negotiated special packages with the TLH group hotels as follows. You can stay at any of the TLH group hotels - as well as the Toorak, you can book rooms in the Victoria, the Carlton and the Derwent Hotels.
