The hotel's location overlooking the harbor was fantastic, allowing for easy access to the ferries, although it could get noisy in the evenings due to its proximity to the pub. The rooms had unique maritime decor, but noise might be an issue for light sleepers. Overall, a convenient spot for exploring the area.

Upon arrival at 11:30 am after an early start from Penzance, our room overlooking Town Beach was all set for us. The rooms are comfortable with all the essentials like tea/coffee facilities, TV, and a clock radio. We missed having a room safe or phone, but there's a convenient Co-Op supermarket nearby.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were clean and well set out with lovely bathrooms, but mine faced the noisy street above the restaurant entrance, which was bothersome at times. The service was top-notch with great room service, but there were some ups and downs with the dining options. The location was lively and bustling, with fabulous views overlooking the harbor during breakfast. The facilities were good overall, but there were some noisy areas due to the busy atmosphere around the dining tables.
