Very grubby hotel

If the standard of the hotel decor , was as good as reception area, it would be a nice place to stay, sadly once you leave the reception the rest of the hotel including the rooms a grubby, with stains on the carpets in the room and corridor, it reminder me of a homeless shelter.

Stay at Great Western

This hotel could definitely do with a make over as it looks tired. My one complaint was that breakfast was not included in the price so do not believe what you read on the internet that the price includes breakfast.

The main thing that made our stay a good experience was the staff, they were doing a good job. and made time to stop and chat. they realy look after the hotel and the guests who come to stay giving a good impression.they explained about the hotels past history that it was founded by the owners who built the cross country railway. It made our stay all the more interesting.thanks to the good people in newquay cornwall. and staff in the great western hotel.

A sad hotel

The hotel was in terrible condition in looks, comfort, etc. Even the elevator was not working and lugging luggage up flights of stairs was hard and dangerous, Rooms and hotel were not accurately represented on the website. Had requested a king bed did not get, Room’s fan in bathroom was loud and wouldn’t shut off so had to move, The hotel was just in a very sad state. I would never recommend, I must say though the view was sensational.

It was clean. My issues were the room was so hot it was hard to sleep at night. The street noise was disturbing so sleeping with the window open came with it’s one issues. I could not get the tap to run any cold water so we had to clean our teeth in hot water and couldn’t have a cold water drink drink.
