I hate fake customer service where they address customers by titles such as Sir or Madam. At St Ives Bay hotel, I was treated like a normal person and that I liked.

Great hotel location with good views over the beach and the bay towards Hayle. Unfortunately the staff were only interested in the coach parties attending the hotel and we felt rather ignored. No mention of bar or restaurant when we arrived or even during the stay until we asked. Room was outdated but a good size. Parking for cars behind the hotel, but travelled in a van so unable to use.

We didn't expect a lot from this stay because the price was very reasonable. The property requires much updating. The room was clean but again required updating. The walls are clearly quite thin which was disappointing as I was disturbed by the neighbours showering in the night and because our room was at the top of the stairwell we had the banging of the stairs door every time someone went through it. The overpriced breakfast was very limited and the staff were clearly quite stretched. Location was good, however the parking was off-site.

I had read lots of reviews mostly bad, however I don’t know why. The staff were really pleasant. The reception was efficient courteous and sorted out the booking error with no fuss. I really can complain and I am amazed at some of the negative reviews. Would I stay again absolutely. Thank you for an enjoyable stay.

Man behind the desk was very rude. Milk had gone off and could not drink the tea at breakfast. Carpets not clean. Bed and pillows very uncomfortable. Reception constantly had guests complaining about something regarding their stay. Nice location and view out of the window. Would not stay again though.

An ok place to stay as a base in St Ives
The first room we had smelt really bad of dog poo and was so warm it was not comfortable and made us feel unwell. We asked to change rooms, which they accomadated with ease and the second room we had was comfortable and smelt better. It was an ok place to stay as a base to explore St Ives with a dog.
