We stumbled upon this hotel quite by accident during a long weekend in Cornwall. We found the hospitality of the highest standard, and the location was ideal, being in the heart of St Ives itself. We arrived on a Sunday evening just in time to sample the carvery, which was delicious. Then we found a good seat in the adjoining... More

Stayed for 2 nights and was kept awake both nights by shouting and music. We are a young couple and like to party but this was a joke. Also, booked a double room but was given a family room, the comment from staff was "it's good if you have an argument". Not funny. Room no 4 was dated, in urgent... More

We had seen this hotel initially, before booking another hotel for a weekend in St Ives as a birthday break. We didnt book as it said very noisey.....Anywho, having arrived at our other, booked hotel, we found it to be awful...we checked out immediately and headed from Carbis Bay down to St Ives. As we came down the hill we... More

Despite the previous reviews I found my room, overlooking the main road, comfortable and clean. Yes, you may have to park 'up the hill' but the taxi rank and bus stop is directly outside and the hotel is in an ideal position from which to do a walking tour the town and harbour areas. The staff were friendly and offered... More

The double room was tiny... we are not big people, but we had to take it in turns to stand up! The bed was not very comfortable. The 'ensuite' would prove of extreme interest to anyone with an appreciation for bizarre/unreliable plumbing. The breakfast was the best value. There is also a healthy folk club based in the pub downstairs... More

Stayed here mix summer holidays! Arrived and struggled to park in St Ives, website said limited parking but there was none affiliated with the hotel. Got upstairs to our room to find an old dust sheet outside the bedroom door- the room was very basic- found 2 long hairs on the top of the duvet, an old used UHT milk... More

Stayed here at the beginning of September having been there about 12 years ago. It hadn't changed much. The rooms are small and a bit dated and not at all value at the £90 a night we paid. The shower room is like someone said, more like a caravan shower. It was so small, you had to come out into... More

Generally this hotel needs updating, new carpets, lose the dated wallpaper and add a flushing toilet. Attention to detail is lacking with fittings removed from walls and left as is, bare plasterboard on the ceiling in room 1 and 2 single beds pushed together in room 5 masquerading as a queensize bed but i had a lovely holiday. If you... More

Having had. Really bad experience at the last "hotel" we stayed at in St Ives we decided to do a lot more research via TA. We discovered this hotel at a peak season price of just £80 for a double room. +tive - room was clean if a bit small but with a good view of the town. centre. Staff... More
