Pros:

Отель находится достаточно далеко от вокзала, но я специально бронировала там, потому что отель с историей. У меня нет ни одного нарекания, всё было замечательно. Кровать была большая и удобная, в номере было светло, тепло, чисто и тихо. Прекрасный душ, из которого не хотелось вылезать. Я гуляла целыми днями по Корнуэлу, приезжала вечером, угощала себя вкусным коктейлем в баре и потом спала как младенец. Приехала до заселения, оставила свой рюкзак. А когда приехала, он уже ждал меня в номере) Завтраки чудесные, кофе вкусный. Я очень рада, что там жида несколько дней в рамках моего путешествия по Великобритании.

Cons:

Моим волосам не понравился органический шампунь, но это лично моя особенность) Потом просто купила в центре.

Friendly staff, well located but more suitable for event attendees
Pros:

Friendly and welcoming staff. Well located with an easy walk into town.

Cons:

We stayed for three nights. During this time there were two weddings and quite a few other events, it felt like we were uninvited guests. We were given room 24 which is dark, cold and damp. The common areas are tired looking and the carpet is very dirty where suitcases have been wheeled through.

A bit of a rabbit warren to find the rooms. The bath should have a shower mat.

The hotel was lovely, staff were great, food was great but please do something about your room numbering, please.
Pros:

Very central for our needs. Hotel in lovely grounds and imposing.

Cons:

Our room wasn’t easy to find as the location of the numbering was strange. We had to climb stairs, along a passageway, drop down more stairs, along corridors and eventually found our No.16!! Without the help of a very helpful member of staff, we might still be looking for our room!!

A lovely hotel but overpriced
Pros:

I loved the decor of the hotel, my room, and bathroom. They provided free biscuits and water daily which was lovely. Overall, staff were friendly.

Cons:

The main issue I had was that my bed was very uncomfortable. I could feel the springs so it hurt my back. I would expect high quality hotel mattresses in a pricey hotel like the Alverton, so I might be a bit hesitant to stay again and risk poor sleep.

The afternoon tea was a hit and a miss due to average taste overall. Breakfast was good, however I ordered pancakes and asked if I could have a different fruit instead of banana (due to an allergy) but I was served plain pancakes with syrup. Adding a few berries or a couple of cut up strawberries shouldn’t have been an issue. I was disappointed.

Overall good experience, but would eat elsewhere for dinner
Pros:

Very attractive hotel, impressive architecture. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was quiet even when wedding dancing/partying was taking place elsewhere in the hotel (we were in room 12). Breakfasts were very good (continental plus hot food options). Car parking is available on-site but can get busy/packed.

Cons:

We ate dinner there on the first night and it was bland/mediocre and under-seasoned as well as being expensive (£89 for my wife and I for 2 courses each plus 1 alcoholic and 1 non-alcoholic cocktail). The service was also super slow - we waited about 75 minutes for our main courses. I wonder if this was because there was a wedding earlier that day. Would suggest taking the breakfasts here but eating elsewhere for lunch/dinner - especially if on a budget like us. Room 12 is also near the boiler and so is pretty warm - not much the hotel can do about this but we'd suggest booking a different room if you like it to be cool for sleeping.

Comfortable and quiet, and a short walk from the town centre.
Pros:

Standard room was large and comfortable, and nice and clean. Bathroom was huge, with a big walk in shower. The bar staff were friendly and efficient.

Cons:

No issues. Our room was above the outside door to the kitchens so was a little noisy early on, but this was not a problem later when we wanted to sleep, and the room was pretty quiet.
