Hotel 3-Star di Cornwall, United Kingdom

I recently stayed at The St Ives Bay Hotel and had a pleasant experience. The hotel has a lovely vintage charm that gives it a unique character. I was happy to find that, despite the classic style, the rooms were well-equipped with modern essentials like a heater and a fan, which kept the temperature very comfortable. It was also a big plus that the hotel has a lift, making it very easy to move around with luggage. Overall, it’s a charming place to stay with great facilities

Ok I'll start with positives. The location is literally adjacent to St Ives railway station and the beach so if you don't like walking the hotel is great for this. Hotel itself is on a steep hill, walking downhill to the main port/shops is about 5/10mins. Now the hotel. First impression of reception desk is great, looks clean and new and the reception staff were very friendly but then it went downhill from there. The ”luggage storage” room was a room that anyone could access particularly with the back door of the room wide open to the back of the hotel and yard. So i would be concerned leaving anything valuable. Our room was 313 on the third floor. Ridiculously warm with a basic tower fan for cooling, there was tea and coffee facilities that were good. The standard quality of the room was poor. Bedding was poor quality very uncomfortable only one pillow..if you could call it that. I would advise management to supervise housekeeping more and do room checks as the cleanliness was poor. As you entered you were greeted by a weird smell of damp. The view of the one window was great of the sea and beach but marred by the dirty seagull poop window and worn mouldy window frame, dirty dust on the sill. It's not hard to clean a window and window frame or get a maintenance person to reseal the edges of the window or put a temporary rubber sealant till a new window frame is fitted. The bath tub panel had a crack hole in it which could cause a cut if I wasn't carefully paying attention and a used soap in the shower. Orange yellowing in the grouting around the bath/shower. Limescale bathroom foam spray helps with this. This room desperately needs to be refurbished or renovated. I highly recommend watching Four in a bed or The Hotel Inspector in how to manage your rooms. The other room was room 11? backed onto the courtyard. A little better high ceilings, airy and cool looked like it had a repaint but again the shower room had a strong smell of urine. Other than that reception desk staff friendly, when mentioned the urine smell they got housekeeping to clean again, just a shame it takes other team members to slack somewhat on housekeeping and let the team down. More supervision is required. More maintenance. Look don't be put off by this review like I said location is great. Just be really specific with your room choice ie, renovated room-show photos you've seen on website so you know what room you're getting.

Good room, great views. Amazing location and prices as well. Staff is very friendly and always ready to help. Loved my stay there will be back for sure.

Sea view room, several windows with great views, simple breakfast provided (worth about 12 pounds), the food in the hotel restaurant is also good, there are many people every day, there is an Italian buffet on Friday (15.5 super cheap), a lot of dishes, just They are all very filling dishes, so they are cheap. You don’t have to worry about customers eating too much, but it is more than enough to try them all~

All very good nice hotel very good location clean apart from the seagulls on the roof outside the bedroom window they had babies making a noise and there was no way to park. I had to pay in a car park opposite Hotel is lovely and the staff are great.

This was a wonderful hotel. I highly recommend ordering breakfast. The owner and hostess were wonderful, and the room was so clean I slept like a log. I'd love to come back with my family next time. If you're looking to experience a British B&B, definitely book here. I give it a 10 out of 10. It's a great value for the price and cleanliness compared to other places. Personally, I thought it was incredibly clean. And because the hotel is small, there were a lot of families and people with a sense of community. You can't go without making a reservation in advance. There's a beach near the hotel, and there's a Mexican Inn for dining, but I can't recommend it. It's probably better to ask the hostess. There's also a small pub on site, so you can have a drink in the evening. Because they're British, they're not overly friendly, but they have a comfortable, friendly demeanor. I hope they continue to run this hotel for a long, healthy life. ❤️

A really great stay on top of Tregenna hill overlooking St Ives. The hotel has multiple buildings and lots of facilities. Great for lovely walks with views and sitting and watching the ocean. We stayed in Lowarth which is a self-contained building with two bedrooms, two bathrooms and an upstairs kitchen and living area. It was really quiet and comfortable!

A lovely welcome as we were greeted at the Bar by Tommy and shown to our room. We went back to the bar and had a drink. The bar offers a good selection of beer lager and wines. The room was clean and tidy and was great for a short stay. The bed was a double with a mattress that was a little soft for us, however that is because we do have a very firm mattress at home The staff were very friendly and polite. Unfortunately due to our stay being on Sunday and Monday we could take advantage of the restaurant as it was closed for these two evenings but the menu looked very nice. We paid for the breakfast for two mornings at £15 per head per day and it was very good. Yoghurt, fruit, warm croissants and cereals were on the table on arrival and then we were offered a choice of cooked breakfast, either a full english, bacon or sausage sandwiches and Scrambled egg with smoked salmon. We had an issue one morning however this was sorted out to our satisfaction.  We would definitely recommend St Tudy Inn for a short stopover.

Our room is not in the main building. We have to walk upstair to a first floor high extension building. My booking hasn't mentioned this. It just like a B&B room, but this is a 3 stars hotel. If I know before hand, I will not book this hotel.

I stayed at Premier Inn Bude recently and had a decent experience overall, but I felt it was overpriced for what was offered. The room was clean, comfortable, and quiet, and the bed was excellent as you'd expect from Premier Inn. The staff were friendly and check-in was quick and easy. The location is also convenient for exploring Bude. However, the price was difficult to justify. While there was nothing particularly wrong with the hotel, it felt like a fairly standard Premier Inn experience with no extras to match the premium rate. For the amount I paid, I expected better value or additional amenities. Overall, it's a comfortable and reliable place to stay, but unless you can find a good deal, I think it's expensive for what you get. I'd consider staying again if the price were lower.
