Reviews and Ratings
I had a mix of experiences at the hotel. The rooms, though large and pretty, overlooked a building site and lacked some essential supplies. The service was welcoming and helpful, but there were some miscommunications. The location was convenient for exploring, with great views, but the dining experience left something to be desired.
The hotel has a strategic location for exploring Marazion, St Ives, and the coastline to Land's End, all within a short distance. The rooms are small but well-furnished with vintage charm, yet some issues noted with ventilation and noise. The service was friendly and attentive. The dining experience had its hiccups but featured indulgent pastries. Overall, a good place to stay, especially for the location.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were exceptionally large with a good sea view, which was a great plus. However, they were pretty expensive. The service was a bit of a mixed bag – they were very helpful and friendly, which is crucial when traveling alone, but there were moments of unprofessional behavior late at night. The location was perfect, overlooking the sea front, but it left me feeling slightly out of place. The dining experience was comprehensive with a variety of choices, but the staff seemed understaffed. Overall, it was a decent stay with some ups and downs.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were in need of a serious update, but the staff was very welcoming and friendly. The location was superb with fantastic sea views, yet the dining service left much to be desired. The facilities were decent but could use some improvements.
The hotel's location is fantastic, right by the sea and perfect for leisurely walks, but the room had some shortcomings like a lack of proper servicing and mixed cleanliness. The staff, especially Gemma & Lauren, were friendly and accommodating, though there's room for improvement in ensuring customer satisfaction. The dining experience was hit-or-miss, with good local produce but subpar fruits. Despite some flaws, the facilities were satisfactory for a decent stay.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms were impressive, with only a minor issue of a small TV. The staff were very friendly and helpful, although there was a disturbance during the night. The location was amazing, right by the sea front with beautiful views. The dining options were good quality but slightly limited. Overall, a great hotel with a few minor drawbacks.
