Lock in a great price for Hotel Penzance - rated 8.7 by recent guests.

to get started.

the heated outdoor pool, the garden, the bed was amazingly comfortable and I liked the fact it had a note as to when the mattress was cleaned by a special company, oh and the coffeemaker in the room.

Location, condition of property, views, breakfast.

The staff service was brilliant especially the receptionist.

Nicola, United Kingdom

Great location if you travel to Penzance via train. It's about 5mins from the station. Lovely room with nice view. They happily accommodated my coeliac needs (gluten free).

Ian, United Kingdom

The breakfasts were superb and the two dinners we had were good. There was a lovely view from the dining room overlooking the bay. There was complimentary water in the bedroom and complimentary tea for an hour in the afternoon. There were several rooms to sit in. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. There was free cancellation up to two weeks before our stay and would only have been a reasonable amount to pay had we needed to cancel. The beds were very comfortable. It was very convenient for the ferry to the Scilly Isles.

Sheila, United Kingdom

The room was fine, the hotel was location nicely with respect to roads and Penzance.

Rene, United Kingdom

The room was fabulous and with a great view of the sea. Being welcomed and shown to the room was a lovely touch - very friendly and personable. Cocktail happy hour was a nice bonus too. Breakfast was good quality and served speedily. Definitely plan to return!

Darren, United Kingdom

Views across the bay from the dining room were stunning. Furnishings were interesting. Our room was well appointed. Lovely flowers in garden. Excellent breakfast and tasty complimentary afternoon tea. Helpful and pleasant cleaning staff. Ladies on reception were welcoming and helpful.

Graham, United Kingdom

A lovely Edwardian building, with pleasant public lounges, afternoon tea on the house,and a fine restaurant. We quickly got to know the staff and it was almost like staying in a private house. We booked a sea view room - marvellous. Beautiful gardens as well.

Richard, Canada

the room was really nice, so was the view of the harbour from the room. the hotel was very nicely done up too. the carpark was up a steep slope but appreciate that we got it for free during our stay. there's a heated outdoor pool! the bed was really comfortable and many channels on tv. the bathroom was smaller than i imagined but very clean, well laid out and nicely done up. Appreciate the heaters in the bath and the room. we had very good quality of sleep. breakfast was tasty too, & staff were obliging to custom breakfast orders and were very professional

“A good place to stay for bird watching in the Penzance Area”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveller
- • 2 rooms
- • Stayed 5 nights
눉The parking was difficult on that steep slope and seemed slightly limited. I don't know where you could have gone if there were no spaces left although I may have ticked a box for reserved parking as we always found a space, if sometimes the last one. The bears on the beds were a nice idea but the animals were not very attractive. The head was set an an odd angle.
눇The breakfasts were superb and the two dinners we had were good. There was a lovely view from the dining room overlooking the bay. There was complimentary water in the bedroom and complimentary tea for an hour in the afternoon. There were several rooms to sit in. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

눉The breakfast was not of a quality that I would have expected considering the price. There was no personal touch. The brasserie was sort of ok, but the food could have been better. The price I paid was far too high for what was offered.

눉it was also unclear that i had to pay £25/night for my child when i booked; the writing on booking.com wasn't clear. it said children are welcome but no mention of charge, when there was a charge mentioned for infant and use of crib. everything seemed to cost money honesty bar, merchandise in the corridors, and i requested for a waiver on my other cancelled room but was rejected. would have preferred if they only made 1 transaction on my credit card for room so i don't incur credit card charges twice (once for first night, the other at the end of stay) i do however really appreciate the free & ease of parking staff were professional so meaning not overly warm or friendly, but doing their job well.
눇the room was really nice, so was the view of the harbour from the room. the hotel was very nicely done up too. the carpark was up a steep slope but appreciate that we got it for free during our stay. there's a heated outdoor pool! the bed was really comfortable and many channels on tv. the bathroom was smaller than i imagined but very clean, well laid out and nicely done up.
