The breakfast was lovely, there was a great choice of both cold and cooked. The granola being homemade. Owners were very friendly. Rooms were newly furnished and very clean.

Cons:

The shower was a little weak but you can live with that.

You must stay at Mevagissey Bay Hotel
Pros:

First and foremost, the hosts Sam and Roy were brilliant - so friendly, inclusive, helpful, I could go on. The location itself and the view from the bar / dining room / bedroom were wonderful. The room we chose with a balcony was lovely. The breakfast was plentiful and the dinner we selected for our final night was absolutely delicious. Bless Sam but she even gave me a complimentary birthday wine and added a candle to our dessert and sang happy birthday. Plus even more appreciated was a Cornwall tin of scrummy shortbread to make my birthday special. We couldn't more highly recommend a stay at Mevagissey Bay Hotel.

Cons:

Absolutely nothing

Einfach fantastisch durch die herzliche Art der Besitzer
Pros:

Ein absolutes Juwel! Die Lage ist einfach spektakulär – der Blick auf das Meer ist atemberaubend und macht den Aufenthalt zu etwas ganz Besonderem.
Sam ist eine außergewöhnlich herzliche Gastgeberin und kümmert sich mit viel Charme und Leidenschaft um ihre Gäste und die Bar. Ihr Mann verwöhnt mit einer hervorragenden Küche und einer ausgezeichneten Speisekarte.
Die persönliche Atmosphäre, die Gastfreundschaft und diese traumhafte Lage machen das Hotel zu einem Ort, an den man gerne zurückkehrt. Ich würde jederzeit wieder buchen und kann dieses Hotel uneingeschränkt empfehlen!

A lovely two-night, three-generation, five room family stay.
Pros:

Sam and Roy are EXCELLENT hosts. Nothing is too much trouble and they worked hard to accommodate our party of ten.
The location is amazing: a wonderful sea view from the terrace and lounge, and only a short walk into the village. We really did feel completely at home.

Cons:

Our room was very small, but it was one of the least expensive: We let our guests have the better rooms. The sea view rooms had already been booked.

The best small hotel experience we've ever had ( and there's been quite a few! )
Pros:

From the moment we arrived we just felt like we were going to be "looked after". We arrived a little early and Sam (the owner) was having a busy day and booked us in sharpish, which suited us!
The room was very well presented and spotlessly clean!
The room was very nice (looked over the rear of the property).
The bed was very comfy, lots of cushions too!
Tea/ Coffee Etc was there as were complimentary biscuits.
Plenty of towels etc. in the en-suite.
Just the best real "value for money stay" we've ever had in Cornwall!
Sam and Roger looked after us and attention to detail is superb without be in invasive or false.
Simple things make a difference like the small chalk board at breakfast that just said "Good morning :)" !
They even bought my wife a lovely box of chocolates as it was her birthday! HOW SWEET!!!
We cannot recommend this place enough.
Thank you Sam and Roy!

Cons:

We really couldn't fault the place!
