    Older hotel on different levels and no lift

    Staff were so helpful and friendly - had a mix up with another hotel booking and they went out of their way to help us. Amazing position on the rocks so amazing views. Breakfast was good and Gluten-free options

    It was all good, like almost perfect for me. I had an amazing experience, my room view and the location is perfect. Easy access to the harbour to find restaurants and very near to the train station. The weather was bad but because my room has a dashing sea view, we can just stay longer in our room. The sea wave sounds made me sleep better as well. The staff, what can I say, they are all very good, very friendly and accommodating. We had free breakfast too

    Nothing.

    Wonderful view from my room of rocks, sea and St Ives harbour. I had a single but it was cosy and quite big enough for me. Good to be able to adjust the temperature on the radiator. Staff were so friendly and helpful. Very pleasant bar/lounge area and dining room overlooking the beach and it didn't feel awkward to be eating on my own. Generous breakfasts and I must mention a superb risotto for dinner. Just a flight of stone steps down from St Ives station (very small) and a short walk to the hotel. On the quieter side of the harbour but just a few minutes' walk into the centre of the town.

    Shower and loo was a little small with wash basin in the actual room.

    The view from out bedroom window overlooking St Ives harbour was fabulous, went to sleep and woke up with the waves hitting the rocks below us. Sadly balcony was shut due to windy weather. No extra cost for a cooked breakfast. Good choice of menu for lunch/supper.

    The hotel was on a superb location, only a few minutes walk from train station. The beach was close. All local shops and restaurants were walking distance. The hotel had best view resturant and excellent food menu. The view from our room was breathtaking. The hotel staff were very helpful and friendly. Excellent! Will visit again in summer.

    From our stay nothing..... if anything room size could have been bigger but would just be picking had a wonderful time

    Me and my wife travelled down from Kent after works upon arrival in the early hours of the morning we was welcomed in with a smooth transition we was also offered a drink at the bar even though it was closed so we took a seat had a drink and kick started our short break, the staff and the level of service is the best we have come across and I don't say this lightly I believed this level of service, didn't exist any more great work great staff great service excellent location stunning views.

    Nothing to not like, we’d return again in a heartbeat, but I think we had higher hopes for the restaurant, it was really pub grub which is fine but thought it would feature more of the amazing local produce.

    Lovely, comfortable rooms with spectacular sea views! Wonderful staff, so helpful and friendly!
