Realy good location. Our room was 3 floor. Views were excellent over the sea. Unfortunately our toilet didn’t really work and there wasn’t hot water from shower. Otherwise no complaints.

The view was beautiful. Breakfast was 10/10.until you met rude JUNE. Rooms was in need of a replacement. Smell of dirty drains in the corridors. Shower doors hanging off. I wrote my name in the dust on the headboard. It was my birthday weekend away, I was very disappointed with this hotel

Hotel staff were very friendly, one chap showed us where the customer parking was and we were lucky to get a spot for free all weekend. Hotel pretty dated, but had everything you would expect. Clean and tidy.

I read a number of poor reviews about how worn the place was but people mentioned the view was amazing. I booked a Seaview room. Our view was a tiny bit of sea through a huge palm that covered the window. I thought they had accidentally given us the wrong room but I was told it is ‘officially a sea view’. I imagine we weren’t the first to complain. The bar has spectacular sea views. Overall we were disappointed and wouldn’t stay there again if that is their definition of a sea view. We felt cheated.

Certainly, would not stay at this Hotel again.
Made sure the property had a lift as our companion is disabled and we had a lot of luggage. No mention of all the stairs we had to go up and down to get to the lift. We were told to park at the front to off load but were all yelled at by a member of staff for being too close to the front steps. We were working as fast as we could but all three of us got an ear full. Parking is mentioned as being available but there is only about 10 spots for a very large hotel and we were told to park at the railway station which is paid parking and not that close to the Hotel.

Never stay here again.
Room was dirty in general, both room and bathroom. Carpet was old and worn out. Doors were black with dirt and you didn't feel like touching them. Breakfast was 20 gbp but the food was nothing special at all compared to the previous hotel. Fly in the milk at Breakfast. Could be a nice hotel if people owning and working there cared. Normally never write reviews but this experience was a real let down.

Located at the very end of St.Ives Bay. There was no lift in the building so I had to manhandle my heavy suitcase all the way up to the 2nd floor. This hotel is an old fashioned property, last given a make-over in the 1970's by all appearances, catering for coach parties from the North of England on a budget - or so it seemed to me when I stayed. The room was basic with a capital B and v.small. I noticed that the basin / sink was chipped.The breakfast was poor. The scrabbled eggs were so tasteless I surmised they had been made with powdered egg ? I wouldn't stay there again - even if you paid me.

The room floor was uneven causing us balance issues. The bed mattress was terrible, overall room very poor. Curtains hanging off, shower was working properly. Balcony was full of cigarette butts. We left one night early, no staff available to register a complaint.
