    Chapel Street's central location offers easy access to the harbor and nearby historic pubs. The building's age adds character, making it a unique stop for anyone wanting a taste of local history.

    The staircase and corridors could use some serious upkeep. the railings felt wobbly, and navigating the steps can be a puzzler without clear signs. My room had no shower, just a rather uninspiring bath, and the old cupboard was a letdown. The absence of a light shade made the room dimmer than I liked, and good luck trying to open those windows—stuck tight. Some amenities, like the table space in the bathroom for toiletries, were noticeably lacking. The internet situation was also a hassle. it barely worked outside a few pockets, leaving me hunting for Wi-Fi elsewhere. it had its quirks, and while I appreciated the history, a touch more maintenance wouldn’t hurt.

    central hub for city walks and stunning park views

    The central location made it so easy to stroll to attractions like Penlee Park, and I loved the quick access to the bustling Chapel Street, which is right around the corner. while the room offered great sea views, it could use a bit of upkeep to match the beautiful surroundings a bit better.

    Consider dining at the bar area. it has a lively atmosphere without the issues of the main breakfast room.

    Had an amazing view of the harbour from my room, which really brightened my stay! 😊 But the shower water temperature kept fluctuating, which was a bit annoying.

    I had a lovely stay here while visiting Penzance. The charming character of the building really stood out, especially the historical décor that made my experience feel unique. The stunning view from my sea view double room was a highlight, allowing me to enjoy the scenery right from my window. the shower water temperature fluctuated during my stay, which was a bit inconvenient.

    sea view
    helpful staff
    good location
    shower malfunction
    poor staircase maintenance
    carpet lifting

    I stayed in the Double Room Sea View and absolutely loved the view from my window. Waking up to the sight of the sea was a fantastic start to my day. The room size was good for what I needed, and the friendly staff made check-in a breeze. the shower water temperature fluctuated, which was quite annoying, especially during my morning routine. The old building has its charm, but some carpets are lifting, so just be careful while moving around. the location is prime, being close to everything I wanted to explore. A little more attention to maintenance would really elevate the experience.
