Lovely apartment

The apartment was separate from the main hotel and was lovely. It had been beautifully and tastefully decorated and was spotlessly clean. There were fantastic views of the coastline and Tintagel Castle. My only bugbear was that we arrived quite late on the Sunday (my birthday!) and ordered two roast beef dinners. Unfortunately, these meals were not cheap and were very disappointing as they were not freshly cooked and were akin to a microwave roast beef dinner.

Although the communal areas were nice and opulent this was not so for our bedrooms, desperately in need of decorating, draughty and damp around the windows, paint peeling off the ceiling, badly stained carpets, bathroom pods that were small and difficult to move around in. Staff are excellent. Food very good but pricey. Very exposed location but to be expected on the cliff top especially during the recent storm.

This property had the most amazing view I've ever seen. The room was a little dated, but it made sense considering the type of place. We did afternoon tea.And it was absolutely amazing. The service in the tea room was exceptional. Our room was very spacious and had views to die for. We look forward to coming back

Wonderful treat to stay at this hotel. The water view from our room (and even toilet) were amazing!!! Food was good. Lots of parking. Loved the decor except for the tacky photos in the lobby & childish paintings with glitter in some areas. Great town to walk in and also walking paths nearby.

Disliked: Staff & service
We were looking forward to staying at the hotel, despite the forecast weather.We checked in at 3pm and we were then shown to our room. It was on entering the room, that our expectations clashed with the reality. The room was devoid of any colour, soft furnishings, pictures etc anything that would have made the room warm & welcoming was absent. Everything was white, white walls, white bed sheets etc. My wife called me over to view the bathroom. I use the term “bathroom” loosely & only in the sense that there was a sink, a toilet, and a shower cubicle in a small boxed off area in the corner of the room. This so called “bathroom” was a plastic pod that resembled an aircraft toilet and comparable to one in size. Had anyone felt the need to use the toilet, their knees would have been wedged hard against the door. I stood in the shower and drew the flimsy , cheap shower curtain across. My face was up against the curtain, only a Borrower would have found it spacious. We complained to the man behind the desk. By his response to our complaint and general demeanour, you would have thought that he was a not too distant relative of Basil Faulty. When I explained the issue to him, his response was you booked the cheapest room - £160 p/n breakfast extra cheap !!! ???? I replied that they had appeared to have taken the concept of basic quite literally & it wasn’t good enough. We asked for a refund,. Having got a refund we located to a better hotel in nearby Boscastle.

Beautiful, classic

I am amazed how the staff knew my room number, and wow! Staying at a hotel that looks like a castle is a treat. I loved my ocean view room. It put me at ease so I can do my work. And I love all the artwork and crystals around the hotel! I felt like an old time celebrity staying here.

Castle CamelNOT

An awesome castle (though modern) in an amazing setting. Unfortunately, that's all the redeeming points. The standard double room is small, pokey and outdated. The widows didn't open but leaked (windy). The ensuite was nothing more than a small cupboard.
