We've been regular guests at this very friendly and professionally run hotel for many years and are always made to feel very welcome on each visit. Superb location with brilliant views of St Ives and the Porthmeor Beach. Excellent leisure centre with an indoor pool that sells refreshments all day. Oh and the food isn't bad at all with excellent... More

A lovely hotel nestling on the hillside overlooking St Ives. Personally managed, laidback, with time for their guests, he hotel has a slightly understated, faded glory image, being an older building that has under gone numerous alterations over time. We stayed in the 2 roomed annex (orginally an artists studio) which has stunning views of Porthmeor beach, an ample sized... More

I stayed at the Garrack from 9-12th May, and coming from London, it was just what I needed. A quiet retreat and haven which, to me, was heaven! The staff were amazing, and Stephen and Michael (the owners) were lovely, friendly and took the time to talk to all their guests. The weather let me down because it rained for... More

We had a very pleasant stay at the Garrack, the staff were very helpful and friendly, the view from our bedroom was stunning and the room was comfortable and spacious. The only drawback was no shower head on the bath taps and as there was no shower hair washing was a bit of a performance with a jug! The food... More

We stayed for the weekend recently. The room was ok and had a lovely view but as some others have mentioned there is a serious issue with the showers so that we were alternately scalded and then frozen as the water changed temperature at will. I politely enquired about this on two occasions but the man at reception (who may... More

We stayed for 2 nights, booked at short notice on a bank holiday weekend. I wouldn't describe us as particularly fussy but we like to stay in nice places and we do notice things. On the plus side, it is comfortable and clean, but it really (in our view) only qualifies for a "fine" rather than a "fabulous". The sea... More

My succinct comment to the manager was how on earth was it possible to get a 5 star rating when this was only rated 3 star!!! I could not fault it. The double room was of good size, the bed enormous and the ensuite perfect. Delightful views of the bay, Godrivea island and llghthouse in the morning sun. Breakfast a... More

My partner and I were booked in for a 2 night stay at the garrack as we had been brought a groupon stay from a family member, the stay included breakfast both days, evening meal one evening and cream tea on the other day. The voucher was meant to be used by February but the manager said they were fully... More

We stayed for 3 nights and had breakfast and dinner there on all three days. We would have gone in to town on at least one night for dinner, but the food was so good, we ate at the hotel. My standards are quite high, so credit where it's due. As for the room, unfortunately, this could have been better.... More
