Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers good privacy, clean and bright rooms with a powerful hot shower. The breakfast options may not suit everyone's taste but the overall experience was lovely. The service was spotless and the staff were very helpful, making it a perfect place to stay. The breathtaking 180-degree views of St Ives Harbor & Bay from the location make up for any shortcomings. The dining experience was mostly excellent, with a decent cold buffet but some disappointing elements. The hotel offers delightful facilities and amenities, perfect for a relaxing stay.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel, enjoying the beautiful views of the harbor and beach. The room, though a bit noisy due to its location, was well-equipped with all I needed. The service was excellent, especially Caitlin's attentive care. The location was superb, right by the sea with panoramic views. The dining experience was mostly delicious, complemented by a great outdoor pool area. Overall, a great place to unwind and enjoy the scenery.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant. The room was huge and very comfortable, although there were some noise issues due to the bar underneath. Despite that, it didn't really disturb my overall experience. The location is excellent but could use some updating. The hotel offers beautiful views, especially during breakfast overlooking the sea. The dining options were decent, but there is room for improvement in terms of variety.
What a delightful stay! From the room itself to the rooftop terraces and the dining room, this hotel exceeded our expectations. The service was top-notch, led by the helpful and friendly Ryan. The location, right on the edge of the sea, offered breathtaking views in a convenient setting. The dining experience, especially overlooking the bay, was fantastic. Although the lack of parking was a drawback, the wonderful aromas and proximity to shops and restaurants made up for it.
