Thank you for a wonderful stay.
From the moment we arrived we were treated as though we were the only people there. From reception to dining room and bar all members of staff were courteous and welcoming. The room and the view from it were unbelievable. The bed was enormous and extremely comfortable. The food in the dining room was amazing with perfect sized portions. The selection of real ales (my favourite tipple) was excellent as was the wine ( the bosses favorite). I cannot give enough praise for this hotel, in fact, we enjoyed our stay so much we have already booked to stay there over Christmas next year. To all staff at the Pier House Hotel a massive thank you.

Excellent, but...
Very good indeed but was cold during the night and there were no blankets in the room. Ask beforehand! Also no toiletries in bathroom except fixed soap/shampoo dispenser.

Pier reviewed for Comfort.
A very warm welcome on arrival set a very good impression. My room was pleasantly decorated and well maintained. The bed was very comfortable and with no external noises, I slept very well. The breakfast was good, again with very welcoming and helpful staff. There was limited on-street parking directly outside of the hotel or a free carpark a short walk away. A lovely hotel in a very picturesque, sleepy part of Cornwall

Fabulous stay
We have just returned from an absolutely fabulous couple of nights at this hotel. The room was amazing with wonderful views - we were very lucky and had been upgraded on arrival - but everything about the hotel was great. It was in an excellent location, all the staff couldn’t have been lovelier or more welcoming and the food was superb. We would love to return.

Good and not so good
The only qualm I had was the restaurant and kitchen. The restaurant particularly at breakfast was chaotic and disorganised but the meals we had were chilly and disappointing. There was no direction from the staff as to what would happen ie serve yourself or seved. And we had to resort to asking other visitors. Some food was cold when served. By far the bar staff were exceptional and knowledgable and the room cleaning was exceptional and friendly. Day reception was wonderfully helpful. Morning staff didnt even acknowledge my good morning or look up even though the place was empty except for me so they must have heard me as i went past.

The Pier House Hotel is located in an excellent and scenic position. The property is clean and well-maintained. Staff were friendly and very helpful. There is a good range of options for breakfast and we also enjoyed a delicious meal one evening. The hotel is also close to a bus stop from which you can get to various sites if you don’t want to drive (good if you want to do the St Austell Brewery tour!). Charlestown is a great location for a long weekend and a stay at the Pier House Hotel makes it all the more special.

The place is nice and friendly and food was good, but my room was depressingly small and I stayed in another pub/hotel in the west country 4 weeks ago where the room was 5 times larger and cost less and it was in the peak period, so not value for money

Disappointing
No sound-proofing inside or out, could hear my neighboor's phone vibrate as if it was IN the room (let's not mention bathroom noises) and the rain sounded as if there was a leak inside. Mattress very soft, beware the "free" breakfast is a very small buffet with pretty much only highly processed sugary foods. If you want anything else, you have to pay extra
