The room was good but difficult to navigate up the stairs. However staff all very friendly and our dog was made very welcome which is why we chose to stay at the Lifeboat Inn again. We stayed with our dog two years ago. Altogether a very pleasant stay.

Great view of the harbour from the room. Nice big bath and a great strong, hot shower. Nice quality toiletries in the room. Decent food. St Ives was bustling which was nice for a January stay.

Up the side alley and very steep stairs to top floor. Room nice with seperate shower room which we really liked. Shower pressure good. No view, but we knew this and its a lower price to other rooms on same sight. Central location with everything we needed. We will be booking again.

The Lifeboat Inn is a nice setting and the family room overlooking the Harbour is great. Great breakfast and nice staff. No fault to the hotel but being next to the road is noisy, especially when the bin collectors are out in the morning.

The property is very conveniently located along the St. Ives waterfront. Check-in is at the pub below the Inn and there was no dedicated staff to assist with luggage There is no air conditioning in the rooms and therefore, windows have to be open in warm weather in order to get some “air”. This results in all outside noice from the extremely busy waterfront (including the screaming seagulls) to echo into the room. Rooms are also only accessible by VERY narrow and steep stairs. Breakfast was included with the room and it was served in the pub below the rooms - very good selection.
