Guest Reviews
I surprised my husband with an over night stay here for our 20th wedding anniversary, as we got married here on 20/5/06. We stayed in the same suite that we did that night.
The hotel has been updated since our wedding, and since we came back for our 10th anniversary, too.
Everywhere is clean, and comfortable.
Signs of wear and tear on most of the carpets, sadly, but this will be a huge expense to replace so it’s understandable why it’s not been rectified…however, if I were looking to book for a wedding now I’d be put off by it. Thread bare in places and dark/grubby/wrinkled in others.
A few areas just need a touch up, like scuffs on the walls in our grand suite: when you’re paying the prices you expect 100%.
We had a complimentary cream tea outside, the nicest scones I’ve ever had! Compliments to the baker!! Had to ask for the tea though, as this didn’t appear to be coming with the scones.
Cornish tea and coffee served here, excellent and tasty.
Sadly a lack of staff at meal times led to waiting around, and one of the staff on at breakfast was very dismissive and didn’t make eye contact when serving us, made no conversation and didn’t smile when we greeted him. My husband commented he seemed to be in a daze, maybe ill? So I hope he is ok.
We will be back for another cream tea one day soon, and to stay again in another 10 years!
Thank you for the lovely touches of gold petals on the bed, and wine in our room, too, with a very nice greeting card as well.

Good quality hotel, comfortable room, nice surroundings and good food.
some communal areas looking a little tired
Despite several promises by staff, an issue remained unresolved for my whole week's stay. For a good quality hotel charging the rates that they do, this was unacceptable. Our extractor fan was not working, meaning the bathroom quickly filled with steam. I reported it on morning 1 and was told by reception someone would investigate. They did not, so I reported again on morning 2, but still no response. On morning 3, I was told a member of the maintenance team would investigate, which they did. I was told an electrician would be bringing a new fan that afternoon. Three days later it was still not fixed and we departed after a week with the situation unresolved. I complained on checking out and received an apology but no explanation for the delay or compensation. What made it worse was that my sister and husband, who were staying in a separate room, reported that their extractor fan was on continuously and they were unable to switch it off! It seems The Alverton has an electrical issue it is reluctant to sort. A shame because all other aspects of the stay were satisfactory to good.
Lovely building, quiet double bedroom at the back of the building, great shower.
Really slow staff response both on booking in and even slower at breakfast the following morning. We were not the only guests having to seek out staff to place a breakfast order. Floor manager needed. Staff were polite & friendly when approached.

Beautiful setting, walking distance into Truro centre and Hall of Cornwall. Comfortable bed, amazing shower. Bar staff worth their weight in gold. Reception staff very helpful.
Breakfast let the side down, staff didn't seem to like mornings! 1st morning paid extra for cappuccino, which was cold. 2nd morning had a bitter tasting cafetiere. Food was of a good standard. Only 1 chair in the bedroom.
Très bien. Une toute petite chose pourrait apporter un plus. Améliorer les choix "boulanger" et laitages au niveau du buffet petit déjeuner
Catered for our needs exceptionally well
Our room was up down up down and mattress wasn’t brilliant.
Lovely place full of character. Friendly staff, food of a very high quality if a bit pricy.
Not a dislike as such but I would have expected guest bath robes in rooms.
Fijne kamer, heerlijk eten.
