The building did look slightly dated from the outside but inside it was a lovely lay out. Clean and tidy and very quiet. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful. …

Hotel fine, clean and friendly. Good breakfast. Unfortunately the room we were in had slightly raised level parking directly outside the window...there are a considerable number of rooms like this.  …

Very friendly staff, housekeepers always doing the best to their Ability, I believe our housekeeper was Mandy. And she went over and beyond to make sure we was happy and had everything we needed. The receptionist staff very welcoming. Would come back

Slightly improved ex Travel Lodge. Beefeater next door is the closest place to eat and that was very average. Had a bath though, comfy bed and air con. Staff very good although probably slightly understaffed in the Beefeater. Soundproofing wasn't as good as the Penzance Premier Inn. Luckily I always travel with earplugs.

Martin and Kelly on the front desk were extremely helpful to us. They helped with all queries, and very accommodating. Friendly faces from all. All my requests were met and I felt very satisfied with the service provided. Couldn't be happier with service provided.

Room41, Tracey and her team worked wonders to provide us with a family room for the complete duration of our stay, when previously it was going to be a multi room shuffle. Some people wouldn't have bothered, ""the computer says"" but Tracey went the extra mile to provide customer satisfaction over and above, she is admirably supported by a very professional team who's aim is to make the guests feel welcome.The only adverse comment is that the rooms are beginning to look and feel a little tired.Having said that we will be back. The beefeater breakfast,especially the poached egg's is first class.

The service at the reception is great. But the exterior of the hotel and the room are very tired compared to all other premier inns we have stayed in. It's a long walk plus stairs before we get to the room. Glad we were only stopping over for the few hours sleep. Premier inn needs to put some money in for upgrade work.

I needed somewhere to stay as I was attending an old friend’s funeral in the area. The hotel provided me with everything that I needed. Close to the church and the location for the wake. …
