Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a million-dollar view over the estuary and provides great rooms with Elemis toiletries. The service was top-notch with various amenities available upon request, although there was a missed opportunity to inform me about them proactively. The location, nestled in a superb restaurant with candlelit tables and close to the charming Polkerris beach, added to the overall experience. The dining experience was pleasant, with home-made bread adding a homely touch. The facilities were well-kept and enhanced my stay.
Staying here was a great experience overall. The rooms were clean and tidy, and the facilities were top-notch. The service was good, but there were a few missed opportunities. The location was stunning with beautiful views, although accessibility could be better. The dining was satisfactory but could use some improvements.
The hotel offers a million-dollar view and clean linen but lacks a mirror next to a plug. The service could have been better in informing guests about available amenities. The location is ideal for exploring St Catherine's castle and enjoying dining options. The self-service dining experience was satisfactory. The facilities meet expectations but nothing extraordinary.
