Brian, United Kingdom

It was a very nice hotel to stay, wish we had done two nights. The food was great served by the pool.

Pamela, United Kingdom

Friendly and welcoming staff; Good food and value for money

Priscilla, United Kingdom

The hotel in general , made to feel welcome, very good food, and the swimming pool

John, United Kingdom

Staff were friendly and helpful. They charged my mobile for me when I couldn't find my charger. Restaurant excellent. Exactly the kind of food that I needed after a tiring journey. Good views over the town and harbour, which means that it's uphill. Get a cab from the station if you're on foot and carrying luggage.

Sally, United Kingdom

Perfect location very clean throughout.Single room one of the best I've had for a UK stay.Breakfast was available from 7.15-11.00 which I appreciate, that's better than anywhere I've ever stayed.Fantastic view of St.Michael's Mount.

Neil, United Kingdom

The food was lovely, views amazing and very clean comfortable room

June, United Kingdom

Friendly staff, good breakfast, great views, beautiful gardens. Good position in town and everyone at hotel helpful. Laid back but here to help when needed.

눉Pleasant walk from railway station (10 minutes) spoilt by unexpected approx. 100 foot climb from main road to hotel over a very short distance. Elderly or less able should consider taxi from railway station.

- • Leisure trip

눉In room TV would frequently experience picture freeze, often there would be no channels stored and we would have to rescan. Pointed it out to staff but response was it was " a known issue" but no action was taken to rectify the problem. Dressing table chair was old and uncomfortable on arrival , this was replaced immediately.
눇Excellent location, friendly staff, great food

“Extremely disappointing, largely on account of poor room and difficult parking.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Small Double Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉Bedroom very poor. Top floor cramped attic room with low sloping roof and beams which were difficult to avoid. Only three drawers which were very small and therefore nowhere to put clothes. Light shades shabby and cracked. Bathroom had no proper shower only a hand held shower head in the bath and again low beams which were a danger on leaving bath. Bed was very bouncy with a sprung base making for disturbed sleep and some discomfort. Room was described as a "Classic Double" which at £165.00 per night was a complete misrepresentation of the room provided. This was queried on arrival but no alternative offered unless taking a "Superior Double" for £195.00 per night, which was rejected. The hotel had very limited parking spaces and on arrival there were no spaces available. We therefore had to park the car 100 metres away on the road. Many of the spaces had been reserved even though our literature said this was not possible. Not the best start ! All in all, the Hotel Penzance was extremely poor value for money and the worst hotel of five stays in the South West over 14 days and yet having the highest room rate !!
눇Location and breakfast both good. Lounge areas very good.
