Camelot Castle Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Wonderful hotel, needs to be seen to be believed. Absolutely full of lovely items you just would not think would work but they do. Very grand building and makes you smile. Four poster bed in a very large room with breath taking sea views. Only thing that let it down was the bathroom pod in room that just did not match decor or the extravagant surroundings. The staff, especially a older lady in the restaurant at breakfast who we also saw with a hoover the day before we're lovely and helpful. A young man in the bar early evening was also a credit to the hotel. We came down one morning to a young girl playing the piano whilst her parents ate breakfast which was so pleasant. You could not find a more impressive building on the cliff edge in Cornwall with a quaint little village with shops and restruants within walking distance. We, along with our spaniel cannot wait to stay again."

"The only criticism I have was the cove restaurant was over priced and the service was slow and we asked for a dessert menu and waited about 45 minutes other people with babies were serviced before us we felt ignored by the staff and then to add service charge of £8.10 was a really bad when there really was no service at all My husband and I were on the 2nd floor and he couldn’t manage all the steps so they did move us to the 1st floor however our room was tiny but I couldn’t ask them to move us again so we stuck with it but would have preferred a bigger room when your paying £150 a night the swimming pool was lovely I think when you have teenagers maybe they need to have things for them to do to like mocktail making or movies for teens or arts and crafts for them etc"
