Quirky and comfortable, plus well sized rooms. The restaurant was too pretty and convenient to walk past - we had breakfast and a couple of lunches there. Great neighbourhood for cafes and shopping, with leafy streets to walk in if you want to avoid the Portobello Road hubbub.
Right on the water’s edge, St Mawes Hotel is located on the south coast of Cornwall, offering fresh and modern rooms with soft duvets.

Location is perfect. Right on the edge of the harbour with views to die for.
Great food and the opportunity to eat breakfast or have pre dinner drinks on the balcony. Manager is great, really helpful.
On the pretty quay in St Mawes, where the open sea meets the Fal and Percuil rivers, this hotel offers a bar, lounge and restaurant with picturesque views.

Breakfast was OK
Our evening meal was very good for two of the three nights; and one of our three nights at this hotel on our own volition we ate out at the local chippies !

Excellent place to stay and in easy reach and/or driveable distance to features such as tropical gardens and a nice exploratory walk through the wooded gardens leading to the beach. Also. a visit to the only city in Cornwalll, Truro was interesting with many features. One visit we made was to to a Gold Mine Centre called Togus and free of charge (no entry fee!) not far from Truro

One of the loveliest villages in England.
One of the loveliest villages in England. Thoroughly recommend the walk from St. Mawes to St. Just and a visit to the church there. The Rising Sun is a great little pub for a cheap meal and the Idle Rocks a fantastic restaurant for a not-so-cheap meal 🙂
A visit to a castle is always a bonus and St. Mawes is superb.

Fantastic village, port to explore itself and travel out on the ferry or on bus or foot or car. Ferry’s are great fun and Place, Falmouth and Trelissic Gardens are all accessible by Ferry. Buy a 3 day pass to save 50%. There are 2 castles near by and Falmouth has lots of shops. Parking in St. Mawes is tricky and needed careful planning. Lots of restaurants

A quaint tiny village with the most perfect views out to sea. Lovely walks, enough eateries to accommodate most tastes and pockets. A walk up to the castle is a must, there is a lovely little coffee van that serves excellent coffee and homemade cakes all with the most stunning views

St Mawes is a lovely village by the sea/estuary retaining much of the original properties. Many of the properties near the sea front are holiday rentals. There are half a dozen restaurants and a fish and chip shop. There are a few shops including a small supermarket. Boat trips regularly run to Falmouth for a change of scenery for the day. I would imagine in the height of the summer the village is very busy which may be an issue for eating out.
This boutique hotel is all about service. We were made to feel very welcome, our names were on our bedroom doors, and the rooms were lovely and comfortable with beautiful views of the bay. We enjoyed a cocktail on the deck, coffee in the lounge, and a very nice breakfast in their beautiful dining room. It is incredibly peaceful and the public spaces are bright and beautiful. We also enjoyed the quick walk up to the old St. Mawe's fortress.
Beautiful hotel in an extremely beautiful part of the country. This deceivingly small hotel, which isn't that small one, you get up the steps from the main road is a hidden gem. The hotel manager Karen is a delight to deal with and converse with as are an array of staff, particularly Talin the chap who works the restaurant. Food is impeccable and can not be faulted, nor can its position within walking distance of everything.
I booked the accommodation with the intention of staying temporarily while I search for a house in Truro for my new job
It turned out to be far better than I imagined. The only downside was the distance from my place of work which has nothing to do with the property itself.
I would have loved to stay much longer if it was closer to my place of work.
Overall, it was a magnificent place to stay.
The location is amazing, sea view rooms overlooking the beautiful St Mawes harbour. The room was very spacious, large, double bed ..very comfortable. Clean room with a large ensuite bathroom. The staff are very helpful & friendly. The breakfast was amazing, great buffet selection cereals, fruit, cold meats, cheese plus full cooked breakfast.
Highly recommend this hotel.
The hotel has a splendid position which is matched by superb meals and excellent service. We had a Harbour View room, which was spacious and nicely furnished; we did indeed wake up to the sea lapping against the wall beneath our window!The bar service was also excellent; we never knew there were 3 different types of Manhattan cocktail, and now we do!
everything was superb from arrival and warm greeting the fabulous breakfasts large room with excellent decor all top quality furnishings and toiletries better than some five star hotels I have stayed in trust me
anyone who stays will be impressed and the bonus a cared for garden
Beautiful hotel. Room was spacious and pristine. Serviced every day.
The staff were very efficient and friendly.
Excellent food and drinks.
Great live music on one night. Perfect 3 day stay in lovely St Mawes. Highly recommend this hotel if staying in St Mawes.
Breakfast was very good. Staff very good location good. But not any other facilities in the hotel. No car parking next to the hotel if raining not easy to load and unload. St.Maws is great if you were on holiday in the summer and not a local.
This is great hotel in a fantastic location we were lucky enough to have a room with a balcony overlooking the harbour wow what a view the room itself was goo really clean and comfortable with a very modern bathroom with a powerful shower,
The Hotel was perfectly located near the wharf and suited us perfectly while walking the South West Coast Path. It was close to the ferries to Falmouth and Place and also the bakeries and Co-Op shop
Nice spacious room with lovely en-suite. Breakfast had a lot to offer and was superb although service a little slow at times.
The location of the Hotel was excellent.
The staff were very attentive and very helpful, the food was excellent. the hotel is a little bit pricey but well worth it, especially for a special occasion.
