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.

Helpful and friendly staff. Great views
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 .

Right in centre of Newquay, close to Beaches, Main Street and Railway Station. Outside of building does look a bit weather worn but that is probably only to be expected given the location The Bar and Dining area is relatively spacious & the included breakfast was pretty good! Room was smallish, relatively comfortable bed and a clean toilet and shower. Hotel staff were all extremely pleasant!
