What Guests Say About Their Stay

We booked a 2 night stay, with our daughter in order to be at a close friend's funeral service and wake. The hotel is ideally located to appreciate the view across the water, and to watch the comings and goings in the bay. The staff were really friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The public areas and therooms are lovely and clean. Parts of the hotel are ready for being refurbishment (which is about to take place) but it would be a shame if the whole project loses all of the period atmosphere of the present building. The bar was comfortable and the barman (owner/manager??) was very personable and amusing. In fact, all of the staff made us feel really welcome and were encouraging us to return after the refurbishment has been completed.

Location was perfect, right in the center of the small town and close to the bus stop. Staff was professional and kind. Our room was in a bad spot overlooking the trash cans and very close to a pub but overall the location was wonderful

Service was friendly enough but what ever you do don't ask for an early breakfast. I was booked on a fishing trip at 8am so I asked both the night before and the next morning if I could maybe get a sausage bap or something to take away. The answer I kept getting back was, No, breakfast isn't served until 8am. I waited until 8am and the breakfast still wasn't out. The lack of even any effort to at least get me something was remarkable even though I'd paid £8 for breakfast. They really let themselves down on that front.

My room was well furnished and recently decorated. The rest of the hotel was distinctly shabby. There was no telephone in the bedroom and no information about hotel sevices like wifi. On one day my room was not serviced despite me being out for twelve hours and hanging the right sign on the door. Breakfasts were expensive and of very poor quality. There was no parking at the hotel.

We had 2 extra days in St Mawes after time spent with our family in self catering accommodation. We paid for a superior room with sea view and were expecting a room with balcony. We were disappointed to be told they were all taken. The room did have a sea view and was alright. Nothing superior about it. The hotel was not serving dinner while we were there and we chose not to have breakfast.
