We stayed in Penzance on a cold and windy Sunday in April. The Longboat is opposite the station and at the end of the town's main shopping street so can't be beat for convenience. The staff were helpful and friendly and the rooms though dated were clean and the shower worked well. We found the breakfast to be good but... More

Whilst touring around Cornwall, with a friend - I booked a night at The Longboat Inn. The location was brilliant, close to the Railway station, bus services and town. Our room overlooked the harbour. The room was clean, spacious, warm and comfortable. The service was good. Food was delicious.

I was very happy with my accommodation here when I stayed at the end of January. I was expecting basic but clean, central and good value and was not disappointed. In fact, it exceeded my expectation with the friendly staff, excellent food and totally convenient location.... you literally turn right outside the train station and you will see the Longboat....

On a night out in Penzance, so I was just looking for a place to sleep for the night. No frills required. The Longboat is ideal, great price and a central location. Despite this, I didn't notice any noise and my single room was fairly spacious - I would definitely have been happy to stay there for much longer if... More
