Barrowfield Hotel

Stayed here for 8 nights self drive break from 18th May. We arrived early but were met by a helpful receptionist and used the coffee shop for a snack.
Once checked in our room was spotlessly clean as was the bathroom.
All staff were very helpful and friendly and exceptionally hard working.
There were several choices for dinner and breakfast. The bar and coffee shop prices were very reasonable.Location of the hotel was perfect for us. A short walk into town and around 75 metres walk to the greensward Barrowfields.
There was entertainment every evening.
Would we stay at this hotel again? Most definitely.! Highly recommend this hotel.

We stayed at the Barrowfield Hotel from May 23rd to May 27th as part of a coach holiday, and we had such a wonderful time from start to finish. The whole experience was relaxing, enjoyable and made even better by the fantastic staff throughout the hotel. From the moment we arrived, everyone was friendly, welcoming and always happy to help with anything we needed.

Our room was lovely, comfortable and very well maintained during our stay. A huge thank you to our housekeeper Jessie, who did an amazing job every single day keeping the room spotless, tidy and fresh. It was always so nice coming back after a day out in Newquay to find everything beautifully cleaned and organised. Her hard work and attention to detail really did make our stay extra comfortable.

The restaurant staff were also excellent, especially Jenna, who was absolutely brilliant throughout our stay. She was always cheerful, attentive and professional, and nothing was ever too much trouble. She made every meal feel welcoming and enjoyable, and her lovely personality really stood out. All of the staff worked incredibly hard and always had smiles on their faces, creating such a warm and friendly atmosphere throughout the hotel.

The food was another highlight of the holiday. Breakfast each morning was excellent with plenty of choice and everything cooked really well. The three-course evening meals were delicious every night, with good portions, lots of variety and meals we genuinely looked forward to each evening. Compliments to the chefs and restaurant team for making dining such a lovely experience.

Overall, we had a fantastic coach holiday and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The combination of the lovely hotel, excellent food, comfortable room and truly wonderful staff made for a memorable few days away. A special thank you again to Jessie and Jenna for helping make our holiday so special. We would definitely return and would happily recommend the hotel to anyone visiting Newquay. 🌟

Nice & clean Staff very friendly nothing to bother for them , especially the guy on reception, can’t rennet his name , he was a manager for costa.

Pool

Overpriced for a three star hotel. We paid £667 for three nights bed & breakfast. The hotel is dated, no WiFi in the bedrooms and restricted access in the reception downstairs, basic breakfast that you have to preorder. The rooms are noisy, soundproofing not good, we could hear people walking around in the room above and in the bathroom next door. Plumbing very noisy, on and off all night. The saving grace is the fact that the staff are more than helpful.

Went to barrowfield hotel .was not impressed at all . Good was . Warm. The portion s were small. Tea coffee was always warm .fried bread was like eating rubber.
The. Beds were not made properly .
The bath panel was broken.
The chair in our. Bedroom was filthy
The whole place. Needs re furnishing
Won't be going there again.

I’ve just returned from a lovely 5-day stay at Barrowfield Hotel, and it was a truly enjoyable experience. What really made the holiday special was the incredibly friendly and welcoming staff—their positive attitude genuinely made a difference throughout our stay.
The hotel is in a great location near the beach, and I loved that the area itself has such a long history—Newquay’s roots as a fishing village and the ancient “Barrowfields” nearby give it a bit of extra character without taking away from that classic seaside holiday feel.
A special thank you to Julie and Jack in the bar, who worked tirelessly and always with a smile. Their hard work and great service didn’t go unnoticed and added so much to the atmosphere.
Would happily return!

Just got back from a 4 night stay at this hotel. We were greeted by the General Manager, she was very welcoming and explained all we needed to know. Our bags were taken to our room. (109) It was a twin with a walkin shower on the first floor. Perfect!
The food, Breakfast & Evening meal, was quality and well served. The serving staff work very efficiently, are polite and helpful.
The entertainment was Ok and the drinks prices were very good, as was the bar staff who copped very well. Bingo was well supported!
At checkout our bags were collected from our rooms and taken to the coach. We had our last Breakfast and said our goodbyes, thanked the staff and boarded the coach. It had been a great 4 days.
Rebecca certainly runs a great Hotel !!!

Have been going to this hotel for years as conveniently located for visiting family.
Always been so so.
However, now it is SUPERB!
From the new manager Jayne, Bar Manager Julie, barman Jack, waitress Jenna and the lovely Charlie they all made our stay BETTER than good. Food, good and, for once hot. This is down to the new head chef.
So, if you haven't been, what you waiting for?

Lovely hotel convenient by bus stops to other parts of Cornwall, Zoo, beaches and Newquay town centre. Attentive and cheerful staff, porter service and lift to all floors. Have to commend especially our wonderful waitress Jenna and thanks again to Jane the Manager. Will come back again when we can

The location and the staff behaviour

Location, staff, pool and housekeeping all fantasic.
Clean and bathroom very good with Powerful shower and huge bath. The garden is big and when they have finished renovations the games room will be great

Came here on a Caledonian coach trip in March 2026. We enjoyed our stay here. We found bedroom clean with no problems. Food ok quickly delivered. Staff friendly and hard working. Small lift could only fit two people but despite hotel being full we did`nt have a problem using it. Pool was nice. Short walk into centre. Bus stop just outside of hotel. We would say that this was one of the best hotels we have been to with Caladonian.

On first arriving, the outside of the hotel looked a bit shabby, but once inside it was clean and tidy and welcoming. Our room was large and comfortable and with daily housekeeping was clean and well stocked. The dining room was busy but food arrived promptly and was hot and tasty. Drinks were reasonably priced, but had to be bought in the bar for the table. The hotel has bus stops outside for easy trips into Newquay and the surrounding area. There is a Tesco express a short walk away. Newquay is pleasant stroll along the cliff road, although I enjoyed a bus ride into Truro more.
A bonus at the hotel was the indoor pool. Very clean and warm and thoroughly enjoyable. As at all the Daish's hotels we've stayed at, the staff were very friendly and helpful. Another good and very affordable break.
