Review of Hotel Penzance
4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 27 Aug 2021
I have stayed here twice and both have been excellent stays.
The hotel is small but perfectly formed with a nice atmosphere. Staff greet you and show you around.
The bedroom was very very comfortable and the room had all amenities I needed.
The whole place was incredibly clean and the staff were always very helpful.
It is close to the town, train/bus station and quay but be warned - it is on a VERY steep hill!
The breakfast was good too - cold buffet and you can order hot food.
Date of stay: August 2021
Room Tip: If you want the views, call ahead - some rooms face out to the back. I wasn't bothered but it...

Upon arrival the lady at the desk was welcoming, friendly and helpful. Check in was smooth and easy. Deco of the hotel was lovely and cosy. The hotel felt like home cosy and clean. The view from my room was beautiful overlooking St Micheal's Mount. I felt like I was abroad seeing the sunset and sunrise from the comfort of my bed. The morning seagulls and the whole scenery was lovely. The bathroom had robes in which was ever so convinienet. I had an issue with running the bath but a handyman was available instantly to get the problem sorted. The restaurant was lovely and staff service was great. The view from the resturant overlooking the outdoor swimming pool was pretty. Felt safe and cosy in this hotel really felt like home.

We stayed for 4 nights at this lovely hotel. The views, rooms, food and staff were fantastic. Sheila from the restaurant and her team were incredible providing superb food in beautiful friendly and relaxing environment. The only criticism is the communal stair area does not reflect the standard of the rest of the hotel. Also it is up a steep hill and has no lifts either so not suitable for disabled or people with mobility issues and didn't see this noted anywhere when booking.

My husband and I stayed at this fantastic hotel to celebrate our anniversary.
On our arrival we had a warm welcome and we were take to our room.
Our room was 2 St Samson and was very spacious with a dressing room.
The views were superb (looking over to Penzance Harbour and at the side window there was a view looking out to St Michael's Mount).
The bed was very comfortable really huge.
We booked all our meals in the restaurant as we felt it safer (due to Covid).
The food was excellent and staff were very attentive.
Highly recommend!
Well done to all Reception staff and Restaurant staff! thank you ALL

A very good experience overall. Our room had a superb view, it was clean and very comfortable. We enjoyed our meals in the hotel restaurant (also with excellent views) and would like to return for a longer stay. The only drawback was the limited parking space.
