Comfortable
Room was clean, and free on-site parking is available. Not much choice on the menu, but Truro centre is only a few minutes walk away. Hosts and bar-staff were very friendly.

We loved this hotel. While renovation of the entire property is ongoing, and we did turn down an upgrade to I suspect a newly renovated room, we found our Room #20 to be snug, quiet and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and provided sufficient variety with the option for cooked to order dishes. The breakfast space was lovely. We had dinner in on our second night and thoroughly enjoyed sitting by the fire eating our delicious pizzas.
