The Alverton is a very impressive building in an imposing position. The approach is up a winding and quite steep driveway to the main entrance, with a large car park beyond. Reception seemed pretty efficient and a porter was available if we had wanted help with our bags. We had booked a so called 'Classic' room for 4 nights. On the good points the staff were very smart, and all very pleasant and helpful. I was surprised there was no seperate lounge area, but there was seating in the bar, and on some of the landings. The main staircase to the first floor was quite grand. There was then a long, nicely carpeted, corridor to the group of rooms at the back of the building. Our room turned out to be a good size, and was clean, with a very large bed. Almost everything else about room 12 was far below a 4 star standard.

We liked everyting about the Alverton. The situation was ideal, and the grounds just lovely. The staff could not have been nicer, at the same time as being very professional. The bathroom and shower were superb. Our room was just right for size and furnishings. The food was delicious: the best scrambled egg I have eaten in a hotel. I hope to return again soon.

Overall this is a beautiful hotel that is mostly in good repair. The staff are absolutely faultless and went out of their way to make sure everything was to our liking. There were a few hiccups, but they were looked after professionally. Elisa in particular was outstanding and deserves huge recognition - she works incredibly hard, has the right balance of interaction and personality. The birthday message, card and champagne was the most wonderful and unexpected of touches, it was incredibly appreciated. Through no fault of the hotels, as there was a wedding on with lots of children, we found that they were running around the hotel corridors late at night and it did disturb our sleep. The staff were courteous and conscientious of hosting both a wedding and resident guests and tried their best to ensure that neither impacted much on each other where possible. Very good location and proximity to the town centre, ample parking, lovely terrace. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Beautiful room and the restaurant serves a fabulous dinner. Nice easy walk to town and the building was stunning in amongst some lovely gardens.

The room was perhaps above average in cleanliness and comfort, with most of the conveniences one would expect. The hotel has a relaxed atmosphere, and the staff are professional yet pleasant. Much better suited to business stays than holiday stays I think.
