The property, the quality of management, the staff and the food were all excellent. We were perhaps unfortunate in having a room with drawbacks: a lack of electric sockets - it was only possible to plug in the kettle on the floor, to plug in my laptop I had to unplug the phone,: the bathroom was cold - a huge single-glazed window that could not be closed completely, a very small towel rail radiatior that was barely on, nowhere by the basin to put anything (except the floor). Maybe it's the hotels.com problem: you get the worst room in the hotel if you book through hotels.com.

I enjoyed my stay in this old style hotel - the foyer and dining room were quite grand, perhaps more so in the past. The room was good and modern. Breakfast was ok, but as it was inclusive I can't complain. Sea front location, near to the town at a reasonable price.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Hotel is in a great location but is let down by tired condition. My room had a loose window that whistled all night in the wind, the old bathroom could have been cleaner, low hot water pressure. My friend’s room hadn’t been cleaned properly, still had rubbish from previous occupant behind the chair. It took 2 complaints over 2 days to be resolved but not satisfactorily. Housekeeping is every 3 days, not daily as Expedia says, we weren’t told this at check in. Staff are friendly but not as professional as I would expect for a large busy hotel. Restaurant staff gave me a jug of milk off a used table when I requested milk! Hotel is probably ok for an overnight stay but not longer. Free secure parking is great but it was a disappointing experience overall.

Great location, comfortable stay, terrible food.
Hotel a bit tired, however my room itself looked more updated, especially the bathroom. Comfortable bed, no complaints about the room. Was able to park in the car park for four of my five nights and found parking easy enough nearby on the night I couldn't. Only complaint was the food, it is dire. I had breakfast included but after the first day I didn't bothet again. The worst ever full English I've ever haf.

Really nice seaside hotel
The staff were all lovely from the gentleman on reception, the girl at the bar and the staff at breakfast. The room was nice and clean. The bathroom looked nice and the shower was lovely. Lovely view of the sea from the breakfast room and the food was delicious. We enjoyed our stay.

Nostalgic Beachfront Hotel
A lovely old, nostalgic beachfront Hotel in Penzance, that’s been well looked after. It was very clean throughout. My room was clean, spacious, with a super comfy bed, plus a delightful view of the ocean. The staff were extremely friendly, helpful and informative, plus!, there was Safe and secure parking, which was a bonus.

So so
Nice old building echoing seaside holidays in years gone by. Room service only once every three days. No soap - and shower gel sufficient for only one shower - so take your own. Low water pressure in the shower, barely sufficient. Packed lunch in lieu of breakfast at £10-95 should be priced at under £4. Noisy gulls outside the window squaking all night. The staff are very nice and do their best.

429 pounds for 2 nights was a absolute rip off. Place is in bad need of a total internal refurbishment including the staff. Shower flow was a trickle but at least it was hot , rooms get serviced every 3 days!!!! But you can get a change of towels if you make a request at reception. I blame Expedia for supporting this accommodation with the recommendations they supply.

Great sea view. Terrible evening meal with 'fish of the day' swimming in fat and pavlova from cheap meringue case and no pistachio as described. Mostly chocolate chips normally for cooking, in synthetic cream and sickly sweet. Not enjoyable after a long journey. Would not eat in tha restaurant again.
