Dear paul v I am pleased that you gave the service 5/5 and also scored us so highly on cleanliness and location, however, I would really like to know which of our 71 rooms and 28 self catering apartments had 'spooned on mastic'? as clearly this is a matter of great alarm. It would be great if you could please... More

We have just returned from Cornwall and we stayed at The Falmouth Hotel. We stayed in one of the apartments to the rear of the main hotel it was spacious and well equipped. We used the pool and enjoyed the panoramic views whilst eating in the lounge area, the food was good quality and the portion sizes reasonable. The decor... More

Dear sassle Thank you for your review, I am very pleased that you enjoyed the hotel during your recent visit. I do think our refurbishments will help to recreate the magnificence that was intended when the hotel was built in 1853, certainly when this is combined with great food and staff! I am delighted that you will be revisiting us... More

My room was good - I am recently widowed and I wondered if I would be put in a cupboard overlooking the dustbins! I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and can't fault it except for the 'common parts'. I wonder why the bedrooms have been refurbished before the staircase and the saggy sofas in the lounge. I am nit-picking as the... More

“Nice enough, especially breakfast but otherwise unremarkable except for its staff who are lovely”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 May 2012

We were recommended this accommodation by a family member who was staying there for a second time. We got off to a good start. We had a nice welcome and we found the staff generally very accommodating. Décor in reception is "tired" but some lovely local paintings enliven this area and the breakfast room. We had a lovely, large room... More

“tired but clean”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 May 2012

The hotel's building is tired and has seen better days, but it has a lovely ambience which is in keeping with the style and tradition of the building. The staff work very hard to provide a very professional but friendly and efficient service whilst keeping the hotel rooms clean as you would expect in your own home.

“Sunday lunch very nice”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 April 2012

A very pleasant experience. Food was lovely and the service refreshingly very professional while remaining friendly and efficient. Lovely ambience. My only quip was the seasoning. The food needed more seasoning and there was only that awful chemical mix Saxa available. A tragedy when the delicious Cornish Sea Salt is produced from that very bay!

Great position for a wonderful building. The staff were smartly dressed, spoke well and looked after us with courteousness and speed. Excellent food at the start and end of the day helped to make this a trip to remember for all the right reasons. Unfortunately we did not have time to use the spa.
