Stunning views from the hotel. Great little touch from the hotel when you pre book parking they put your name on a parking space so you know which one is yours.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
Short break
Room was clean and spacious decour need addressing skirting boards looked liked they had been rubbed down but not painted so were a multi coloured and areas on wall 1 different shades on same wall bed was comfy but had what sounded like a motor keep kicking in at night so disturbed sleep
It's an older building which comes with its drawbacks like noise insulation not being 1st grade. The facilities are decent and comfortable enough. Breakfast is good. Location is excellent, right next to the sea and beach. Train station less than a 5 min walk. Restaurants close by. 30 min walk to Fistral beach.
Dated rooms. Could feel sand in the sheets and the pillow was flat as a pancake. Breakfast and service was great and the sea view in the restaurant was beautiful.
Location is great but hotel is run down and park only available if pre-booked . which i found out when i arrived. It cost me an extra £36 to park for 3 days
Stunning views. Staff were very friendly. The hotel is in a great location . Nice breakfast. Pre booked parking was very convenient. We were able to park at 12 even though check in was at 2:30.

Had a very nice stay, food was good had breakfast and another meal. Windows were cleaned for the sea view on our two days there. Just make certain to keep curtains close if u like walking round nude or u nigh embarrass someone. Room with out side balcony. The staff were very helpful. Tried numerous times to book parking kept going to answer phone. Turns out was fully booked would be an idea to leave a message saying that as we wouldn’t have kept phoning. Will be back.
You get what you pay for. This was fine for one night. Friendly staff.
Hotel is very dated and in need of modernisation but for the price was ok value.
The location of the hotel was great and the staff were excellent. Particularly Michelle on reception who helped us move rooms when we had an issue with ours. She was great and couldn't do enough to make sure we were happy and comfortable.
Charming old Hotel but requires some maintenance. Our room was clean , bed comfy and staff were excellent. Very basic menu . Newquay has gone down hill terribly over the years but the natural beauty of the coastline remains breathtaking.
We had a fantastic sea view from our room which balanced out the disrepair .
