The St Ives Bay Hotel

The St Ives Bay Hotel

8/10 Good
"The hotel is in a good location near the beach, only a short walk from the town, with a decent sized clean, comfortable room. The staff were helpful and friendly, and the only real downside was traffic noise and noisy guests at times. Overall it was really good value for money for the location and an enjoyable stay."

10/10 Excellent
"This is an excellent place to stay. I managed to find the hotel easily by using google maps. I was able to park my car in one of the couple of empty spaces available (however I visited in the end of September, I'm not sure if I would've found a space in peak time, unless there was additional parking capacity I didn't spot). I was greeted by name by a lovely and warm staff member on reception, who took the time to provide a tour of the hotel and where my room was located, along with providing some local hotspot tips and recommendations. The room was lovely and clean and just as the photo showed (but could do with a re-paint). It came with excellent Cornwall tea hot drink options and some very useful complimentary ear buds (which was useful given there was a storm that night, and you can hear the lighthouse, which isn't too far away). The hotel is right on the coastal path with stunning views of the sea and lighthouse, and access to a private bay in low tide. The food in The Terrace restaurant in the evening and for breakfast was truly incredible with excellent service at all times - I would highly recommend eating here at least once! There's a great snug area to make the most of the sea views and enjoy a drink/book/games which was a lovely touch. All staff were incredibly helpful, professional and friendly. As a solo traveller, I felt very safe staying here and would definitely recommend to others."

"Our holiday with my daughter as she celebrated her 18th birthday was brilliant, however I have a few disappointed during our staying in caravan, the caravan was nice, a wide area good atmosphere an so-rounding, the concern is the toilet there is no caddy soap, no rug on the floor, no WiFi. No free towels. But a part from that I love Cornwall, I will coming back again on the summer time next year."

The Inn For All Seasons

The Inn For All Seasons

8/10 Good
"Large car park with more than enough space to park. The building externally looked less than desirable, however, immediately explained at check in that they are in the middle of renovations and a pre warning to keep the bedroom room curtains closed in the morning as the painters can start early. Room six offered plenty of space to work, a good WiFi signal, very comfy bed and a dated bathroom with shower. What the bathroom lacked in panache it more than made up for with a never ending supply of hot water and a bath towel that a full size adult could use (thank you). There is a restaurant and a separate fish and chips takeaway on site, on Monday and Tuesdays the chip shop takes over the restaurant so dinner options are limited, however, I had a very nice haddock, chips, mushy peas and curry sauce which was easily a 10/10 but be warned the portions are large. The only downside, I'm a six feet 20 stone bloke - if someone had come unannounced into room six they may well have regretted it, if my daughter had been alone in the room she would have been nervous.....as once inside there is no way to lock or secure the door from the inside. The door can only be opened from the hall by a key, but, the inability to secure the door from the inside may make some solo travellers nervous. All in all a very good night sleep, comfy stay and enjoyable experience. Travelling for business / solo traveller."
