Welcoming staff that couldn’t do enough to help us after a weeks camping. Bedrooms were calm, comfortable and equipped with everything we could have needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our rainy July afternoon by the fire, drinking cocktails, playing scrabble. Again the staff are so friendly and run a tight ship.

We love artist in residence hotels and have stayed at most of them now. Wonderful locations and the Penzance one was particularly well located in the nicest part of the town with lovely artisan shops, coffee houses and bars. Lovely staff and lovely decor.
Our room was ground floor and smelt a bit damp though decor was stunning and lots of beautiful features.
We ate in at the restaurant but we were both disappointed with the meal we received. Price did not reflect the food for both portion or presentation.
It seemed that vegan options were vastly different as a result and seemed little care was given when comparing to meat or fish options presented.

Not mainstream. An eclectic mix of furnishings which created a great ambience.

tables a bit close together in dining room.

Querky style, lovely bathroom products
They were obviously short of staff and although it’s not a long walk to parking it’s down quite a steep hill and not y with luggage.

Quirky yet well designed and high quality. Really enjoyed the fact it wasn’t the more usual dull but functional corporate thing.
Nothing.

Good location in Penzance. Trendy shabby chic interiors.
Awoken several times over both nights of our stay. First night dog barking in another room and noisily taken by owners outdoors. Second night, load noises from other rooms. Sound proofing between rooms very poor. Adding to that, very loud outflow plumbing pipe down the inside wall beside the bed head in our room 12, was annoying and also awoke us in the early hours. The very least to expect at a hotel is uninterrupted sleep and at the high prices at the Artist Resident Penzance we were not afforded this. Cannot recommend staying here.
4.5
The room was thoughtfully put together, with amazing an bathroom and grand bathtub. It was stylish luxury in a small space, which was very impressive.
breakfast should be definitely be included for this price! This is what lets the hotel down big time.

amazing staff and the food at the restaurant was amazing. great location very laid back vibe. we had a top floor suite though which makes a difference as I’ve read bad reviews from ground floor rooms. we really liked the staff and overall vibe.

The room was very nice.
The service could do with a lot of improvement. It is the most impersonal hotel I have ever stayed in. I stayed for five days and not once did a single person ask how the stay was. Especially being a solo traveller I found it incredibly odd. I did not know who the manager was. I wasn’t properly checked in and didn’t even know there was a restaurant behind a curtain until the third day - no one bothered to tell me. Room service forgot water 3/5 days. I would never recommended this hotel and cold is an understatement.
