St Ives

"We had a great stay during the very hot UK weather. The cottage stayed comfortable and relatively cool though as it is well sheltered and shaded. Comfortable sofas and beds, well equipped kitchen, good water pressure for the showers and simple check in and check out process. A quick 5 - 10 min walk in to town and a moderate climb back up which wasn't too bad. Plenty of beaches, shops and bars near by and a great convenient location in St Ives to stay. The only other thing to note is that the...

Top St Ives Hotel Reviews

Uno Carbis Bay

10/10 Excellent

"Great property. New and very clean.Excellent location and the garden area was lovely."

Harbour Hotel St Ives

8/10 Good

"A hotel with a good view over the beach. The spa was OK the pool quite small with sauna. We did eat in the restaurant not much choice in the evening. Would have liked mirrors in the room which weren't blurred in order to do make up. Otherwise a nice stay for a treat. Not a cheap option but would go back."

Green Apple Bed and Breakfast

8/10 Good

"I had an excellent stay at the Green Apple Bed and Breakfast. My room was very comfortable and spotlessly clean, and there was a beautiful breeze coming from the ocean with the window open. The location is a close walk to the train station so you can go into St Ives quite easily. The breakfast was very good. Adrian was the main person I interacted with and he was very lovely, and clearly wanted to ensure that guests had a great experience. I really appreciated being allowed to leave my bag on site during the day after I had checked out so that I could go into St Ives without my heavy pack. My only suggestion would be to provide some form of written instruction for the check-in process once the customer has confirmed their check-in time, to avoid any confusion for guests on arrival."
