a second recent visit. We were given an upgrade to a room with a sea view which was nice. Very hot weather but room had two fans. Service in the bar was a little slow but great staff and lovely hotel.

One night in Falmouth Hotel

We would recommend this hotel. Lovely position by the sea and just 10 minute to the town. The staff were friendly and smiley. Only have one fault, we had starters for lunch that were great so we decided to eat their in the evening. Our ribeye steak was extremely disappointing

A Falmouth institution

Maybe a little rough round the edges but at 160 years old this is forgivable. A grand seaside hotel that reminds you what hotels used to be like. Good service, good manners, and a little bit of old fashioned class.

Very poor stay for a wedding reception

View was the only good thing. Room was very hot and no fan or air con... just a window that you cant open wide. Toilet was blocked and nothing could be done. Bar ran out of ice and limited drinks on offer and soon ran out for a wedding reception.!!! Breakfast and plate was cold so that was left to the side. Reception offed 25% discount and did not charge for the breakfast.

front of house and public rooms were excellent. We were on 4th floor where refurbishment has not yet been done.Room was small. rotten windows not shutting properly and needs redecoration. There was no housekeeping at all for the 3 days of our stay. The bin was not emptied no clean towels. The comfort tray not refilled. It was not reported at time as we daily expected it to be done. disappointed as a hotel of this quality and reputation did not live up to its status.

Shanty festival

A traditional upmarket British seaside hotel which has clearly seen better days in its past, but appears to be attempting to get them back. Property shows signs of being tired in places, bedrooms are 3 star in particular, but the staff were exceptional and clearly well trained. An excellent venue from which to enjoy the town's Shanty Festival.

Sea shanty festival

Lovely stay for the sea shanty festival. The only annoyance was lack of room service and the long queues to get a drink. The first time that the festival had been hosted here so guessing they underestimated how busy they would be! Great staff. Castle beach just opposite is lovely for a swim

Beautiful old building which has been partially renovated. The single room I had was functional but I look forward to hopefully having one which has been “done up” on my next visit. Great location. Restaurant, bar and Reception stand I dealt with were outstanding. Service excellent. Friendly and extremely helpful.
