This is gem of a hotel for those looking to stay in Truro. A 10min walk gets you into the town centre, but the hotel feels a world away surrounded by lush gardens. A beautiful historic building that’s been decorated to a high standard. Staff were helpful - and I’m not sure how I managed it, but we got an upgrade to the Bishop Suite - a jaw-dropping room and a bathroom with twin claw foot tubs. Breakfast was good and so were the cocktails.

The room was massive as I had a room upgrade and with a free bottle of fizz. The staff delivers an amazing service

Beautiful hotel with excellent staff. Lovely room (42) so peaceful. Breakfast amazing.

Hotel room nice. Service in resturant for breakfast poor and food not that good quality. On last day found a pair of knickers on back of chair for breakfast. No proper apology or offer to move tables.

Always enjoy our stay at the Alverton. I've been in a few different rooms now. They are all equally comfortable. The main difference in space in the room. Enjoyed great cocktails at the bar and also a lovely meal at their summer bbq on this occasion. It's a convenient place to stay for walking into the city centre. Highly recommend a visit. Great for a night if heading to a show at the Hall for Cornwall.

Beautiful place with amazing friendly staff! 100% recommended

Beautiful property in lovely surroundings. Nice room. Nice food. Enjoyed our stay,

Lovely hotel, rooms were comfortable with spacious bathroom. Service for breakfast was a let down and when the food did arrive it was cold.

We stayed as a family at The Alverton in Truro and overall had a good experience. The location is excellent and our suite had plenty of space. Staff were attentive and breakfast was a real highlight – all cooked to order rather than buffet style. The Grade II listed building has great character, though ventilation could be better – after a shower the walls were dripping wet. The main let-down was housekeeping, which felt light touch: the bathroom wasn’t mopped or vacuumed, and the tissue box stayed empty for two days until we left a note. A charming hotel in a great spot with friendly staff, but some improvements in housekeeping and room maintenance would make a big difference.

A beautiful hotel. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Good choice for breakfast

Good location, 15 - 20 min walk into the centre of Truro. Lovely hike to Malpas next day. Very comfortable room with huge double bed, good assortment of teas, complimentary shortbread biscuits and a cafetiere with ground coffee too.

Perfect Stay to be in Cornwall!

Sicuramente location interessante. Unica pecca: lo staff dovrebbe valutare la location della stanza anche rispetto all’età degli ospiti. È stato davvero faticoso per noi farci 3

Need taxi service or a car from this former convent to explore

Perfect

Really enjoyed our stay, the staff was lovely, our room was beautiful, this is an all round amazing hotel.

Everything was very good except the bathroom had a drain small which was not good.

Lovely staff with easy check in. Able to facilitate breakfast in bar with dog. Areas of hotel were tired, chipped paint in bedrooms and floor of bar where we had breakfast was dirty (probably wouldn’t have noticed this but our dog kept picking up stuff in her mouth like olives and elastic bands). Stayed in courtyard room which we thought would be more modern but previously stayed in the main hotel where we had a better experience. Great coffee bar in room. Bathroom products limited. Great location in Cornwall.

We loved the atmosphere of the Alverton and its grounds. There was plenty of space for parking and the reception was only a short walk. The rooms we had were very well presented and very clean. I have marked down on the eco credentials as all the lights and television were on when we arrived which wasn't necessary. The terrace was a great place to sit in the late afternoon for a pre-dinner drink. At times the bar staff were talking to each other rather than looking after customers needs but they were always polite. We ate dinner the first night of our stay which was delicious and at a reasonable price. Breakfast was very good too. I would recommend this hotel to my friends.

My second stay because I love the place. Clean, tranquil, beautiful gardens and close to the centre of Truro.
