Awful.

The hotel was awful, dirty. Couldn't have dinner hotel to busy. Breakfast had to be pre ordered, then one breakfast was forgotten. Had to keep asking for items. The poached eggs were rock hard. The whole experience was a nightmare. Found cut dirty toe nails on the bed. cobwebs in the bedroom. Pool area was terrible. Hotel needs a complete refurb. Some photos couldn't be uploaded.

They didn’t allow us to check in even 5 minutes before we waited hour and minutes the lady is friendly however but other staff are quite rude and they didn’t guide to room which was hard to hard to find because we had to go through the quiet room which doesn’t make sense … the lift wasn’t working too and even then the lift only allowed 4 people.The pool however does not be used by the coach guests that come here so you basically get a private pool. Caution some of the tiles in the pool can cut you!

Nice weekend stay in Newquay

We stayed here for the Boardmasters festival and it was ideally located being so close to several beaches and where the buses stopped to take you to Boardmasters. The reception staff were lovely and very welcoming. The hotel could use some updating but it was clean and tidy. We didn't have any shower gel in the bathroom which was a shame but there was a Tesco 2 minutes up the road so we could pick some up. The hotel has huge potential and it is a big hotel with a quiet floor but there were just a few little things that let it down.

We booked what was meant to be a relaxing babymoon through Trivago, specifically choosing this hotel because it advertised a pool, entertainment, and a functioning restaurant. Less than 24 hours after booking, we received an email stating the pool was closed, there would be no entertainment, and the restaurant would only be serving breakfast during our stay – all due to the Boardmasters Festival (which we had no interest in and didn’t even know was taking place). This information was not disclosed at the time of booking. On arrival, we politely asked about the pool and were met with an incredibly rude and patronising response: “You can go to the beach” (despite bad weather), followed by “Do you have a shower in your room? Well, there you go!” and even a sarcastic “I’ll buy you a paddling pool for your room.” This was not only unprofessional, but insulting. The bar was only open between 3–7pm, leaving nothing to do. The room looked nothing like the photos – stains down the walls, outdated furnishings, and paper-thin walls meaning we heard everything from neighbouring rooms. Instead of the peaceful break we booked, the atmosphere was more like a youth hostel due to the hotel catering to festival-goers. This is not acceptable when you’re 8 months pregnant and in need of rest. To make matters worse, other guests told us they also felt misled. The customer service was ultimately the worst we have ever experienced and would caution anyone thinking of staying here!

The building itself was okay, if not very old fashioned. The pool area was nice but limited to 8 at a time so we had to wait a little while. The room had almost no plug sockets and no WiFi in the rooms which wasn't ideal when signal is poor. Staff were lovely and very helpful when the electricity went out when we got in. Beds were comfortable and overall not bad but limited in what it provides.

Mediocre at best

Staff were lovely and helpful. BUT….. black mould in the bathroom! Enough to trigger my asthma. Breakfast was cold every day and the coach holiday people were always seen to first! I requested some toast for my little one and never got it. The high chair was disgusting…… mould in the creases! We did not have lunch or dinner at the hotel for this reason. The pool was nice however!

I am so unhappy with my stay here, I feel I have wasted £100. We were down for the night for a wedding made to feel like kids given a wristband we were not allowed to take off or not allowed back in and we had to wear it to a wedding party. We had to leave out key with our belongings in the room which I did not feel comfortable with and other hotels do not do this. They told me by the way night staff wear body cams which them scared me to think what is going on here? The room was old tv was the size of my laptop and the bathroom full of black mold on top the shower which I have a picture of. There was a group outside the entrance right under our window around 2am chatting and laughing which was so so loud we barley slept, you can hear everyone walking up the stairs and every little creak from other rooms. Over all I was so unhappy and out of pocket for this stay I wish I had stayed in my car.
