Cleanliness. Would be great if we can have shower curtains and typical continental breakfast such as mushrooms, scrambled eggs, hashbrown.

I chose Hotel Vara as I needed a venue with a private dining room which they offer much more reasonably priced than alternative hotels in the area

What a find in the middle of Truro! Gorgeous building & decor, nothing was too much for our host. My friend was taken ill in the early hours & I was even given a little breakfast bag to take with me to the hospital. We will highly recommend

We were surprised when we arrived at the hotel that the young man who gave us our key didn’t offer to carry my case up two flights of stairs, through three fire doors and then down a few more steps. We are both in our eighties and my husband has two replacement knees, The main reason we can’t give a good review is that on arriving at the room, I put our wet bag in the bathroom and there was a turd in the toilet. Not nice. Being English we didn’t make a fuss just left a day early but you can see why we won’t be returning.

My first night here was terrible. I was given Room 8, which was cold, had no proper mattress, and the washing sink was oddly placed outside the bathroom. The shower cabin was awful, and overall this room should never be given to any customer. I spoke with the staff, and thankfully one of them was kind enough to move me the next day to a proper, warm room with a better shower. Breakfast was very poor – the coffee machine was “on holiday,” and the only things available were a croissant, an egg you have to boil yourself, some bread, and tea and some fruits.

Not good if you have mobility issues. Lots of stairs and long walk to room. Shower over bath with no shower curtain so floor got very wet.

Great hotel not too long a walk from the centre of town. Very good breakfast, enjoyed the selection. Bit of a trek up 2 flights of stairs but not an issue that would stop me booking again.
