I loved staying at this hotel! The rooms are modern with a beautiful view, but the shower over the bath was a bit tricky to regulate. The service, especially from the receptionist on the night shift, was exceptional. The location on the hill overlooking the harbor is stunning but challenging for some due to the steep slope. Dining with a view over Penzance was a real treat. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay comfortable and enjoyable.

The hotel offers stunning views and a supremely comfortable bed for a nominal charge. The on-night shift receptionist was outstanding, but the paid shuttle service was a bit pricey. The location is situated on a hill with great views and easy access to the city center. While dining provided lovely views, the pies were not included. Overall, the hotel provides excellent value for money with a few minor downsides.
