Lovely hotel with great staff and excellent food.

Good staff and comfortable bed. On busy street at night with loud people partying that kept us up. No ventilation in room except one window that was so heavy it was difficult to open or shut. Other window had broken shades that did not open and that window did not open. Breakfast and service were good.

Food was excellent and service in the restaurant very good. The overall ambience was very pleasant. Our room was disappointing. It was small with no seat other than the bed. Wardrobe and drawer provision were inadequate even for a 2 night stay. The lack of parking is a serious problem with a 800 yard walk to pick up the car unacceptable to many of your guests, but it's a problem that won't go away.

An amazing little Jen tucked away in Fowey

A lovely one night stay in this boutique hotel in the centre of Fowey. All staff were really friendly, welcoming and hospitable. The hotel had a lovely feel, was clean and comfortable with lovely touches in the rooms to welcome guests and wonderful smelling essential oil toiletries A lovely wide choice of breakfast options too, set in the dining room overlooking the water. Great overall stay for one night although longer would have been lovely. Thankyou

Room and restaurant with perfect views of Polruan and Fowey. Breakfast choice was generous and delicious with a truly friendly service. Room was of a good size, clean and comfortable. Nothing more to add other than the hotel offered a great place for a short out of season break.

We stayed in a room on the front of the hotel. Sadly the noise from the street woke us at six am and just didn’t stop. One other thing: the coffee was dreadful!

I tried the restaurant and It was very good

Lovely hotel on the side of the estuary, rooms great and food excellent. Staff very friendly and professional. Parking a bit of a hassle but that’s the same everywhere in Fowey. Our room to the front was a bit noisy at closing time but then quiet. Would recommend.

No elevator option, difficult stairs for seniors
8.0
Parking is a big issue. The lot for cars was perhaps a mile away. They need a staff member to park the cars for their guests.
Also, there is no lift and the stairs are steep. It would be very helpful for a member of staff to carry suitcases to the rooms.
Other than that we found the hotel convenient to shops and restaurants. The breakfasts were good and the staff friendly.

Great location, lovely hotel. Unfortunately one of the blinds in our room was broken and could not be pulled up, reception informed us of this when we checked in. Room was also very very warm, the fan provided did not solve the issue. All the staff were very friendly and professional. Quite pricey for what was provided but as it is in the centre of Fowey you are paying for the location. The breakfast was absolutely superb, best I've had in a very long time home or abroad.
8.0
The overall situation right in the middle of Fowey was definitely a draw. The common areas were modern and attractive and the terrace overlooking the harbour was perhaps the most attractive feature. What I didn't like was the small size of the rooms and the exorbitant price relative to the overall experience.
4.0
Very good hotel, lovely location, however very few staff, and service was affected due to this, but a great hotel, but a very small choice on the dinner menu.

Lovely welcome Lovely hotel 🏨

Difficult to find and need to enter address rather than postcode into satnav. Reception closes at 6pm and breakfast doesn’t start until 8:30, so we missed both of these as we were there on business. Expensive limited table d’hote menu for the evening.
Parking is half a mile away, not a pleasant walk with luggage when raining!
5.0
A warm and welcoming hotel. Excellent food , we highly recommend the breakfast and outstanding orange juice. Thank you for making our Christmas break such a pleasure with delicious lunch provided while we enjoyed the excellent view from the restaurant. Free parking arrangements also appreciated.

Right in the middle of Fowey so no need for a car. Parking is quite a way away, so you will need to drop off bags and then park. The room we had was very comfortable with views across the Fowey river. Restaurant was very good. Breakfast was excellent.

Enjoyable 5 day stay, excellent central location. Best part is the riverside view from the terrace and from the dining room. Breakfast and dinner was excellent. Room was stylish but small and very hot, despite having the benefit of an overhead fan. Service was good, people helpful.

Service and food were excellent. Particularly the Reception staff. The room was well presented and clean.
The only negative is that I've never been charged a service charge in a hotel resturant before, when staying there.

Stunning location in a wonderful little cornish village. Never been to Fowey before but will certainly come again. Room a little on the small side given it was £356 for a night but the service was excellent as was the food and wine. You really can't go too far wrong.

Booked for a long weekend based on the reviews. As it was a celebration we booked probably the best room – number 6 on the first floor with bay windows directly over the water. Charming, spacious and well-appointed, it was everything we hoped for with an enormous double bed.
The staff were always cheerful and friendly – both on reception where they helped unload our cases as we hovered in the car in the exceptionally narrow (one-way) street outside – and also in the restaurant. The South African manager had taken over on the day before we left. He made a point of greeting all the guests personally and bodes well for the future of the hotel.
The evening meal which we only had on the first night seemed over-priced (£90+ for 2 people with a little wine) for what it was. As a result we eat out for other dinners. Breakfast was from a reasonably well stocked buffet with a range of cooked items to order.
A couple of minor points: the power sockets were underneath the small table which made it awkward to plug in a laptop / iPad etc. Pelmets along the curtains would help cut out additional daylight.
Be aware that, if coming by car, Fowey’s streets are not just narrow - they are exceptionally narrow and one-way. You can hover outside the hotel to load/unload, but the car park (free to hotel guests) is a good 10 minutes walk away.

Nice hotel in a great location in Town. Great views over the river from our ‘loft’ room. Room in need of some TLC, carpet a bit worn in places, outside woodwork in need of painting. The view was much better after the windows were cleaned the day before we left. Overall though a nice place to stay in Fowey

Wonderful location, excellent staff.
Will definitely return

If you are into quaint this is your place. However you have to be prepared to walk about a half mile to the car park and fit in a very small room.
