Decent enough. One thing that did annoy me is that I found the mini bar and tea and coffee facilities in a cupboard which I never used. It wasn’t until the morning of the check out that I realised they were there. Food in the dining room was of a good standard and the serving staff were good. Spa was ok for free, staff in the the spa didn’t really acknowledge me. Just told me to sign out when I left. All in all a decent enough hotel but I thought £500 for a couple of nights for two in November was a little on the expensive side.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Hotel was very clean and continental breakfast had a good choice. The spa was nice but it was really busy. Nice little touches in the room such as a gin and tonic and you could see they had used local providers which was great to see.Location was excellent for the beach and the town.

the beach view was good, but our room had beams in the middle of the room which we had to climb over to get to the other side of the room, the hotel is looking really tired, they wouldn’t let us eat in the restaurant because they had a big party coming so we sat in the bar but no big party came, I wouldn’t stay there again.

We stayed for 1 night. Amazing views over the bay. Staff were lovely. Our room was very noisy overnight. Our shower did not drain properly and almost overflowed, which was reported at checkout.

Disappointed with the service. Although my Hotels.com booking clearly stated a double bed and a single bed, we were given a family room with a double bed and a bunk bed. When I raised the issue, the staff claimed that the requested option wasn’t visible in their system and blamed the third-party booking platform. However, my confirmation clearly showed the bed request. For nearly £400 a night, I expected reliability and transparency. Unfortunately, the receptionist was dismissive and made no effort to accommodate the request. This experience has left me unable to trust the booking process and very dissatisfied with the service.

Very pretty hotel with beautiful views and a particularly goos breakfast. Windows were a bit tricky to use and rooms got very hot in the night. Rooms were not made up well (bet made but rubbish not removed and dirty glasses not replaced).

The hotel is conveniently located about a 15 minute walk from the centre of St. Ives and is directly above Porthminster Beach. In terms of overall amenities and service, I would rate this property at no more than 4 stars. We stayed in an ocean facing room with a balcony. The room only had a double bed and a very small bathroom. The balcony was not cleaned and the chairs and table had bird droppings on them, making it not pleasant to use. Our daughters had a room without a view on the lower ground floor; the room was bigger and had a king sized bed and a sizeable bathroom.
