this was our 3rd time visiting & we are still going to come back again. its an old building with en suite bedrooms. rooms are comfortable, location is right on the harbourside. food is very good & breakfast is very good too. staff are out of this world. I wouldn't recommend for people with walking disabilities or are in a wheelchair. dogs are welcomed at this property. Laura & Kennedy are the names of 2 of the staff I can remember at the moment but the others are very good too.

Enjoyed my stay. An interesting old building, a bit of a rabbit warren with lots of doors, stairs and little corridors to get to the rooms. The room was a bit tired, basically clean and the bed was comfortable. It was a bit noisy with some kind of fan or engine outside the window, but otherwise fine for a short stay. Location was good.

Great clean, comfortable rooms with fantastic views. Staff are wonderful and very helpful. The breakfast is a great way to start the day. The only thing is the wi-fi is a bit hit and miss. To park it is best to get there before 10am or after 5.30pm as parking is very limited. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.

Nice old pub right on Padstow Harbour so close to everything. Has bar and eatery, and staff are very helpful. The only downside - it’s a bit of a mission getting your luggage to the upper floors as there are lots of stairs and doors to negotiate.

Great hotel
Our room was really nice and the staff were great. The hotel itself could do with a lick paint and the stair carpet needs replacing.But that did not stop us having a very enjoyable stay. We would definitely stay again

A nice hotel with room for minor improvements
Lovely little room but being in the top was quite warm so needed the windows open. As a result a late wake-up from drunks in the street outside (it was the nght of England v Netherlands in the Euros Semi Final) and an early wake up from the local sea gulls :-). Comfy bed. A mini fridge would be nice to keep cold drinks in. The can of laocal lager was a nice touch. Ate dinner in the restaurant and the service was not great. Slow and got the order timing wrong by bringing out the starter and main at the same time????. There were only two other tables being occupied so it wasn't like it was busy. These are minor things and are mentioned only for feedback purposes. I would stay here again as it's a great location and a nice boutique hotel. A lot od stairs to Room 14 :-) but worth it for the view ;-)!
