Amazing Venue!
Pros:

We had our Wedding here this July. The venue is absolutely stunning and the great hall in my option is second to none. Clare and Sally were absolutely brilliant put us at easy every step of the way and nothing was ever too much trouble even when I made a last minute addition to our day including liaising with all our vendors, also their guidance and support was invaluable. Food was delicious and the rooms were equally spectacular, the venue is a real hidden gem. Thank you to everyone at The Alverton for making our day so special.

Fantastic stay with excellent food, drinks and staff!
Pros:

A wonderful stay once again.
Ollie the Head Chef created a special menu for us as a celebration. It was superb and exceptionally well presented as well as tasting fantastic.
Charlotte and Alex in the restaurant were their usual very attentive selves and Ellie created some brilliant cocktails from the bar.
From the moment you arrive the reception staff greet you and make you feel special.
Well done to the management team for encouraging and supporting their team to create such a welcoming atmosphere .

Great but some areas need updating.
Pros:

The building was lovely and the staff. And the breakfasts!

Cons:

I didnt like that the rooms for my family weren't near or next to each other. I was disappointed with the view from our room and there was no bath. Some of the decor seemed really swish and some needed a lot of updating.

Pros:

The lady that checked us in was soooooo lovely and welcoming and they loves our dog enzo.

Cons:

No window to open in the room and it was extremely hot, with no air con.so we had to prop our door open which felt intrusive. Service at the restaurant in the evening was incredibly slow with waiters having little knowledge and were not attentive, considering what we spent it did not feel special. Breakfast again was very slow but the staff member was very loved it cancelled out the frustration of the slow service.

I'll be back
Pros:

An amazing, quirky building in a great location for Truro centre, but that would be nothing without great staff. And they were. Everyone that I had contact with was really friendly whilst being professional and, together, they made my two night stay very pleasant indeed.

And that goes for the staff behind the scenes, too.

My room was clean and beautifully made up, and every part of the hotel that I saw was spotless.

Breakfast both mornings was fresh and tasty, save my evening meal (the pork) was absolutely delicious and accompanied by a good selection of wines.

I don't often revisit places but this is I've place that I will definitely be returning to.

Thanks everyone.

Lovely stay for a wedding

Location was great. Everything was clean. The staff were lovely and helpful. We were staying for a wedding. There was EV charging which was a plus for us. Check in was easy. Breakfast was lovely.

A wonderfully comfortable hotel close to the city centre
Pros:

A wonderfully relaxing stay.
Well equipped bedroom & bathroom, gorgeously comfy bed.
Great location within walking distance of the city centre.
Beautifully modernised historic buildings with gardens and terrace for relaxation. Really, a faultless hotel, with the icing on the cake being the fabulous staff. Whether in reception, bar, restaurant, housekeeping, without fail they were all friendly, efficient, helpful and eager to please.
That’s why we keep returning! Cannot recommend them too highly.

Cornwall break
Pros:

We had a lovely 3 days at the Alverton, we found the hotel comfy and clean. All the staff were so helpful. We stayed on a bed and breakfast basis but we did eat in the evening from the bar menu and found the food good value and tasty. We will definitely return on our next Cornwall break as Truro is a fantastic base to explore the county.
