Pros:

Location was great right by the harbour and close to all the restaurants and pubs. Food in the King is very good both breakfasts and evening meals. All the staff we came into contact with are very helpful and easy to speak with. Our room was excellent a comfy bed, great view and nice spacious bathroom.
The coastal path was only a fifteen minute walk away.

Great friendly staff in the centre of town
Pros:

What a great location in the town, you couldn't be bored watching the world go by either from your room or from the restaurant / bar.
The breakfast was a fantastic start to the day.
We enjoyed a lovely evening meal too and the bar was great to finish off the day every night.

Cons:

It's an old character property which comes with it's quirks which were actually quite endearing!

Lovely room & staff but location was good for views and flat but bad for noisy music until late.
Pros:

The room had a KS bed, walk in shower with large towels and lovely view of the river. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was really good.

Cons:

The noise from the downstairs bar with very loud music until midnight on Saturday, Friday not as bad but until 11pm.

Budget worthy pub providing a modest B&B in Foye
Pros:

Proximity to river, room was comfortable, with friendly bar staff. The menu didn’t alter from day to day, of a high standard.

Cons:

The stairs! It’s an historic building with nil parking which is pretty much Foye. Some of the appliances, fridge door, toilet roll holder for example require repair. It was a busy bank holiday weekend - influencing the Wifi which is poor and unsecured when busy. Unlike other parts of Cornwall, where the WiFi is incredibly fast. Noise, the hotel sits within a busy square surrounded by restaurants and a very vibrant Royal British Legion. Music and revellers until 23:00/23:30 each night. If you retire late or sleep well. This shouldn’t be an issue.

The manager was pleasant and offered information when sought.

Keine gute Erinnerung
Cons:

Wer ein Deluxe-Doppelzimmer bucht, wird gewaltig enttäuscht sein! Die dargestellten Fotos und die Angaben zur Zimmergrösse entsprechen nicht der Realität! Verkauft wird ein Raum mit 23m2, jedoch ist der Raum keine 10m2 gross. Rechnet man das Bad dazu kommt man immerhin auf 12m. Weit entfernt von dem was man bucht!
Die Zimmertüre liess sich nicht schliessen, da wurde einfach das Schlossfutter entfernt. Alles ist sehr in die Jahre gekommen. Ob man ein Doppelbet mit 150cm Breite als Deluxe bezeichnen kann, bleibt jedem selbst überlassen.
Auf die Diskrepanz der Auschreibung und der Realität reagierte das Personal mit der banalen Ausage, es sei halt so.
im übrigen ist die Zufahrt zu dieser Unterkunft eine Katastrophe, das Aus- und Beladen des Fahrzeugs fast nicht möglich und der Parkplatz dann mit 10 Min Fussweg entfernt.
Finger weg vor disem Hotel!

Bei der Antwort auf die Bewertung werden nur Ausreden aufgetischt die nicht der Wahrheit entsprechen.
Auch keine Antwort gibt es, warum das Zimmer nur 10m2 hat, anstatt wie angepriesen 23m1!!

Dieses Hotel ist sehr empfehlenswert!
Pros:

Im Superior- Zimmer mit Meerblick hatten wit einen phantastischen Blick auf das Treiben im Hafen. Eigentlich könnte man an den grossen Fenstern in den Sesseln einfach die Aussicht geniessen, wenn da nicht die Landschaft zum Wandern lockte. Dank der Sperrung für den Autoverkehr war die Lage ausserdem Nachts sehr ruhig. Vom Langzeitparkplatz gibt es einen regelmässigen Shuttlebus, um mit Gepäck die steile Zuwegung zu meistern. Dieser fährt in der Saison wohl bis 16 Uhr.
Das Personal war äusserst freundlich, der Zimmerservice perfekt und im Restaurant gab es sowohl ein sehr gutes Frühstück, als auch am Abend eine Speisekarte mit einer Auswahl an besonderen Gerichten. Auch als gehobenes Restaurant eine Empfehlung!

Pros:

Everything. The atmosphere was great, the staff couldn't do enough, the bed was comfy, we had a fridge in our room and we could get as much fresh milk as we needed. It was clean. Evening meal we has was wonderful and the manager made sure she secured us a good table. We didn't have our dog with us but loved seeing dogs enjoy their holiday too

Cons:

Loved everything. Was noisy at night from outside sources but the music was good and it finished at a reasonable time. Nothing the hotel could change. But we sat and watched the world go by from our room. Lovely
