We absolutely loved our stay at the Old Success Inn. The location was fantastic, the room was beautifully designed, the quality was brilliant and I adored the small touches like the complimentary Korev and the Robert’s radio gently playing as we arrived. The staff were friendly and professional and made our short stay thoroughly enjoyable.

Very enjoyable stay. Location and views are wonderful. View from room is across the Sennen white sand beach. Room was neat and well presented. Well stocked mini fridge and refreshments tray. Weather was perfect which helps.

The location of the hotel is great with beautiful views of Sennen Beach and surrounding countryside. Great access to the coastal path as well. Staff was friendly and helpful. My room was clean, comfortable and cozy. My only issue was the noise in my room. I stayed in #15, which is directly behind the reception desk and I could hear guest interactions well into the evening and first thing in the morning. It was reasonably quiet from 10:30pm until 7:15am. It is an older property, so sound proofing is not so good, but the decor and amenities were very good.

This was a really welcoming hotel, staff were lovely, very helpful. We stayed in a luxury room literally overlooking the sea and view of the bay, which was wonderful. Parking is via a car park just across the road from the hotel. The cooked food and pastries at breakfast were very good. The bar also had a good vibe and also serves food in addition to the restaurant. Would stay again.
