10/10 Excellent
"Great experience overall. The property is clean, modern, and located in a safe, accessible area. Front desk staff were friendly and efficient, and the room was quiet and comfortable for a good night's rest. Excellent value for the price—would definitely book again!"

The Vyvyan Arms Hotel

8/10 Good
"Great Old fashioned pub with clean rooms above in town centre .Amazing welcome and very helpful staff. It even has a talking African grey parrot in the bar which says rude words. I loved it. Its a room above an old pub, so expect things to be old and the fixtures and fittings a bit wobbly with the floor uneven upstairs & bit tired, so if your looking for modern, en suite accomodation, like Travelodge/Permier inn then its not for you. If, however, you just need an economical room(s) as a base for your family for visiting Hayle beach ,St ives or Gwithian for a few nights , you dont mind sharing clean bathrooms, enjoy plenty of hot water, you like a good cooked breakfast, clean bedding, free car parking reserved out the back of the place, and with a great Wetherspoons up the road for dinner then, like our family, its the place for you. They even kindly put our ICE packs in their freezer for us with no hesitation and that was amazing. Its in the centre of Camborne and is 5 minutes walk from multiple takeaways, Aldi supermarket, and importantly, as the Vyvyan Arms doesnt serve evening meals or lunches, there is the biggest wetherspoon I have ever been in, which is actually a hotel itself. Throughly recommend it as a stop-over place for 2/3 nights- perhaps not for a week, as space is limited in the family room. Can't comment on the other rooms but I would imagine they are of a similar standard and are fine. Support it! Will definately be staying again- August 2026"

"Really enjoyed our stay , not a complaint but I guess there could have been a conversation around the assigning of the rooms where the larger suite was given to a party of 1 and smaller to two . More about just how things are communicated . The place was amazing , loved its location and the facilities within the suites were ideal to be able to accommodate if deciding to cook our own meals ."
