    Room uncomfortably hot (no heating on) as situated by the Spa. Room had road facing window which made it very noisy.

    Great views, comfortably appointed room.

    It was an excellent location right next to the train station and the beach, with St Ives town only a 10 minute walk away. The views from the hotel were amazing.

    Felt a little odd having to pay for anything other than continental breakfast but did read that in advance.

    Bed was very comfortable and very nice decor throughout hotel. Jacuzzi was great. Handy shortcut path from beach up to hotel. Complimentary gin and tonic was nice touch as well as binoculars in room to look out at sea.

    Would recommend a stay here, but you can get the same standard of food in St Ives (15 min walk) but at half the price.

    Overall reasonable value for money, but, prices of drinks were a little expensive and food in restaurant was very expensive.

    Location was excellent, all staff very polite and pleasant, very clean and modern.
