Such a pity
Nice hotel within easy walking distance to the beaches, eateries and pubs. Staff very pleasant and the dog was made very welcome. However, the down side was our room hadn't been cleaned properly. There was an empty dog food pouch from what I guess was from the previous occupier, rubbish in the toilet and dirty used tissue paper next to the tea and coffee. To top things off the ceiling paper is coming away from the ceiling...... And though adequate the hot water which was virtually non existent only ran at a trickle. Luckily the breakfast was very nice. Big shame. Helios

Back to the future 2
For the payment the stay was very good. Hotel has a great position in St Ives, I even had a sea view. But I felt the hotel was in need of updating, it was like going back in time to the 80’s from the bathroom having the old style mixer tap shower to the tick box options for breakfast. Don’t get me wrong for the cost I’m 100% happy

Awful
When we arrived there wasn’t anyone on reception, had to go and look for someone to check us in. The first room we were put in was awful, so we asked to change, second room we tolerated, but still not nice, we stayed out of the hotel so we didn’t have to spend time in there. The breakfast was absolutely disgraceful, also no one about for us to check out, will definitely not be returning… the hotel was nothing that is ahown

2/10 Poor

Probably the worst place i have ever stayed. I had to leave my car on double yellows for 20 whilst trying to find someone who could check me in. The poor night porter was rushed off their feet tending to coach loads of the turkey and tinsel brigade. Why they didn't more staff??? The room was up a dark smelly staircase directly above the toilet. The room itself was dirty with a broken tap, mouldy shower, tv that you couldn't turn down, no chair and absolutely no chance of wifi or a mobile sign. Breakfast wasn't much bet. As someone that has chosen not to eat animal based products my only choices were beans on toast and nuts and fruit. This place was cheap but still overpriced for the conditions. Staff were brilliant and friendly and helpful

Tatty and run down
Obviously we knew this wasn't going to be amazing after the budget price point and from the online pics, we were expecting something basic and in line with Travelodge type interior. Unfortunately our room was particularly run down and pretty horrible. Needs alot of TLC. Such a shame as the building itself is majestic and in a great spot. Such a real , real shame about the interior. Would definitely not recommend.

Worthwhile experience!
This Hotel has an enviable position next to the railway station and a 5 minute walk to all buses covering a wide area. We booked a superior room which was comfortable and had a superb view over the bay and cliffs. However, it has many stairs and, as far as we could tell ,only one lift which was reached by 7 steps from reception. So, although the staff were helpful, it did not seem disabled friendly. Some ramps and (weatherproof) wheelchair lifts would assist a wider range of customers and could be done as part of the continuing upgrade which the management are obviously trying to undertake (evidenced by certain hi-tech features such as wi-fi and usb chargers, etc). Reception was not continuously manned as seemingly overworked staff were often carrying out other duties. Patience was needed at times but help was usually available. One thing that would not cost anything is a welcoming smile. So come on St.Ives Bay hotel, widen your horizons just a little more and modernise the corridors and accessibility of your fantastic, but slightly tired building, just like you have the rooms. Thanks for the experience of staying with you. We will be back!

Great staff, views and Monday breakfast 👌
Staff were amazing, they couldn't have been better. Room not as per photo and after staff kindly moved us to a room with a bath, Thank-you, the room was very tired. However, the views from 307 are amazing, and we watched the sun raising over the beach. Sundays breakfast was interesting and not up to standard, very sparse. Mondays breakfast was the opposite, quite superb in every way. We travelled with my service dog and the breakfast staff couldn't help enough. Thank-you

It did the job we required it to do!
Great location and good views from bedroom. Bathroom and bedroom decor is a bit tired but I believe that is reflected within the cheap price we paid. Shower wasn't great and the hotel didn't smell great but overall a pleasent stay and did the job. It is a value for money property and would stay again if it remained cheap

Dated but, still loved it.
I loved view, could sit at the wondow all day. The room was clean and tidy. Toilet didn't flush properly, shower tray didn't drain and there was a leak through the ceiling into the bathroom. Saying that I would still stay again, it just felt comfortable.
