​Fantastic location right on the seafront and an easy stroll to the town centre. ​Breakfast was top-notch with both cooked English and continental choices. A special shoutout to the team: if you have an early start and miss breakfast, they will prepare a packed takeout breakfast for you. That is real hospitality and going above and beyond! ​The staff offered great local tourist advice, and the bar was pleasant, friendly, and well-stocked. Don't miss out on the food either—their pizza was one of the best I’ve ever eaten. Would definitely stay again!

Will always be my choice when staying in Penzance. We stayed in the honeymoon suite. Great space, bed, seating area in bed area bay window, settee in other bay window. Comfortable bed, clean room, good shower. Great housekeeping. Owner and Staff really friendly and helpful. Full buffet style breakfast, very filling. Evening meal selection great, Sunday roasts excellent. Great background music and some live music afternoons. Very central place to stay. Good bus, train, boat, helicopter links. What's not to love!

I recently spent four nights at the Lugger Inn (bed and breakfast) and enjoyed my stay very much. My room was lovely, the dining room staff were cheerful and friendly and the breakfasts were great! The Lugger is well situated on the sea front and although the current roadworks required a detour, normally the walk to the station and buses would only have taken me 15 minutes.

Re:The Luggers this is a difficult one 🙄 Tho all facilities seemed to be covered, my room was really, really basic and was not impressed. Can't fault the bed, especially as - for me - I overlay the 1st morning. Breakfast was well provided tho quite basic, especially with the starters. I found that during my 3 night stay, the buffet breakfast was quite irregular with options 🤔 Would I stay again?? Actually, probably yes 😉
