We had a late arrival and an early departure. Staff friendly and efficient and our room large, clean, comfortable and in a quiet location which was perfect for us. Great travel tips from the staff on reception for our onwards journey.

Welcoming, friendly clean everything was at hand that was needed

Had an excellent stay here. The staff were friendly and I also found the towel hire an excellent additional reasonably price. We took advantage of the cycle storage facilities with was great as well.

Nice simple accommodation. Make sure to note the check in times (not open until 5pm.) walkable to visit Penzance.
4.2
Very nice place! A bit far from the bus station when coming as a backpacker.
The private room for two was really small and rather expensive ( 100 £ without breakfast) but the location and the common rooms are nice and comfortable.
I would have really appreciated a real coffee for breakfast and not the instant one ☕️.I think a coffee machine would be a good investment 😀

The layout of the building was very interesting. It did not seem like one room after another, the rooms were well separated for more quiet.
4.2
Lovely building and friendly staff. Clean and warm.
4.2
For the price, £67, this is poor value, why do YHA think it not appropriate to supply towels, very outdated approach
4.2
We had a great stay. Very conveniently located to city center, train station, buses, etc. Clean rooms and beds. Quiet location. Friendly staff.

Peaceful hostel in a nice old building around 20 minutes walk from the town centre. Clean and quiet. Check in times are a little restrictive and late check in is not possible.

Helpful and friendly staff. Very clean facilities.Quiet surroundings.

Excellent location. Friendly staff. Generally clean and comfortable. Un able to use showers before 7am which was inconvenient as we were catching the early ferry. Large groups and staff shortages prevented the normal menu being offered.

Very lovely hostile for a family stay. Our private room for six was large and had seating and a washing up basin. Shared toilets and showers were clean and close to the room. Community kitchen was very busy and dining was crowded...we were there during peak season. This is probably better off peak. No close by amenities such as grocery, so expect a walk or drive to the store.

Lovely YHA hostel situated in the middle of a lovely nature surrounding as well as a good location to visit other Cornwall attractions. The only negative comment was from my teenaged kids regarding the internet being slow and mostly cutting out. Otherwise everything else was top notch.

It was a beautiful and beautifully maintained house in a peaceful setting, with plenty of parking and safe walking and bike access to Penzance.

Great staff. Nice place

One of the nicest YHA I've ever stayed in. It's located in a lovely old house. The rooms are clean and comfortable and it doesn't have that loud "echo" sound that a lot of youth hostels have. The check in crew were very friendly and helpful with local information. Overall a great deal in a pricey part of the country.

Great place. I booked a private room for two people. There were 6 beds in the room (3 bunks). Lovely staff, great checkin. Facilities include - bar, games room, lounge room with sofas and TV, kitchen (with 6 x four ring hobs, two ovens, microwaves, all cooking and serving equipment), full laundry room, games room. Showers were powerful and good, toilets were clean and modern (shared but plenty of them spread around the building). Great value for money especially at the peak time we were there. Camping available, loads of picnic benches in the large garden. Great to cook your own meal and east in either the dining room (next to the kitchen) or outside on a picnic bench (with a pint of beer from the bar). Plenty of parking, easy walk in to town (via the shortcut footpath). No YHA membership required to stay. Excellent. very quiet woodland area, bus stop to St ives 15 min walk away.

On arrival you were given very clear instructions how to access Penzance either walking or using the car and what was available to see and do in the area

Friendly staff. Good value for money. We couldn't sleep one night because of a group of young travellers drinking and making a lot of noise. Staff should be more aware about this kind of situations.

That would be a perfect staying if you could improve the wifi accessibility.

It is a bit remote but the price is good, and YHA provides an up to standard accomodation service everywhere. So Id recommend this
4.2
Convenient, comfortable, very friendly staff. Only downside was our room's proximity to shared toilet made late evening little noisy for those early to bed! But will come again.

Lovely old place, not many guests when we stayed in December, so we almost had the place to ourselves. Our family was upgraded to a larger room, and our breakfast and dinner was cooked to order, at pre-agreed times. Personal service!

Situated a bit too far from town but not a remote location. Nice old building but stair carpet realy let it down. Would only stsy again if taking car.

Near to Penzance Railway station. Quite rooms and clean atmosphere. Only problem is that it has common bathroom.

Amazing hostel in an excellent location, with great staff and excellent food in the restaurant, however both times I tried to have a shower the water was freezing!!

We had a lovely one night stay at YHA penzance. The room was clean and comfortable, the staff were lovely and its only a short walk to the town centre. We didn't get the chance to eat there but the breakfast also sounds great - only serves 8-9am though!
