What guests think

Across recent reviews, St Ives Hotel stands out as a lively, family-friendly seafront base with consistently welcoming staff, popular kids activities and pool, and a convenient location near the pier, beach, shops and public transport.

Rooms vary: some are refurbished or spacious with sea views, while others are small, hot or noisy, and annex access or poor Wi‑Fi can frustrate. Cleanliness is generally good, though some guests noted dirty bathroom corners or a dated, less-clean pool area; dining is praised, especially breakfast, while some bar meals are lukewarm and childrens pricing feels high. It suits active breaks more than quiet retreats.

Stayed one night and that was enough... this is a budget hotel, so don't have high expectations. The room was small but ok, however the walls are paper thin and the room doors are slamming shut, so difficult to sleep with inconsiderate people in the rooms next to us not being able to hold on to the door handle and make sure the door is closed quietly. The pool has seen better days, lots of broken equipment and the cleanliness is very poor. Over all cleanliness of the hotel also needs improvements. The car park in front of the hotel is not sufficient, so we had to find parking elsewhere.

This hotel is absolutely amazing, especially if you have kids. I stayed there around 15 years ago, before I had my own and thought it was awesome but having been back recently, it’s even better than I’d remembered. They seem to manage to keep the place looking pristine, despite all the kids who visit 😂. It’s modern, comfortable and very clean in all communal areas and the rooms are just as lovely. The staff are so friendly and accommodating, they couldn’t do enough for us. We stayed two nights as a family group of 8, across 3 rooms, for the Santa weekend from 12-14 December. We enjoyed two delicious breakfasts and the kids enjoyed the visit from The Grinch on Sunday morning. We ate in the bar on both evenings of our stay and I would say this is one area which could have been better, as the food wasn’t hot either night, it was luke warm at near. The entertainment on the Friday was better than the Saturday but the kids had a ball regardless. We all enjoyed swimming in the pool, although with small children, it could have been slightly warmer. All in all, we honestly had the best stay and can’t wait to return. Well done to all management and staff at the hotel, who really make it a fabulous place that people want to return to and we wish you all the most wonderful Christmas!

Hotel situated on South Promenade with easy access to the beach. Spacious rooms, ours had a sea view. Breakfast and dinners in their restaurant were self service buffet and lunches available from their bar. Found staff very friendly, helpful and informative. There is a swimming pool, a games room and a room with facilities for infants. Plenty of parking spaces at the front of the hotel.

Overall it was a good stay at the St Ives Hotel. The room we paid for was suppose to be a deluxe quadruple room as we went as a family of four. The two single beds were pull out beds but were suppose to be full single beds for our kids. The entertainment for kids was ok and after that was some bingo but for the evening session was an “amazing vocalist/singer” hotels words not mine but at best I’m afraid he was average. The facilities onsite were good, their own swimming pool and dry sauna with an under fives play room and games room for the older kids. (Arcades at a pound a go) The staff and receptionists were overall friendly and happy to help.

The roon itself was a little tired, there was a some laminate pealed off the cupboard, the towel rail has a bit of rust on. That said it was still incredibly clean, it wasn't the nicest room but it was only for 2 nights, we will stay again as the staff were lovely, the location was perfect and the food was great. Hopefully next time we'll get a newer room.

The Hotel & Staff were friendly & Nice. Unfortunately some of their clientel were not. I would not recommend this hotel if you hope for a nice quiet "after Christmas" visit to a lovely Town. The walls were paper thin in the rooms & you were even able to hear people sneeze. The lady on reception blamed it the fact that its an old building, old buildings have thick walls. The neighbours, to put it mildly were noisy & horrendous & on the second night 3 young girls were ejected. Consequently 2 sleepless nights & we left a day early. Way too many children for our liking but great for parents who let their children run wild. Not a place we will be visiting again.

Nice hotel, good location, only downside was I got an email after I’d booked and just before my stay to tell me my room was directly above the entertainment area so may be noisy ( which is was very noisy until late) I feel that I should have been told this before booking, or the noisy rooms should have been cheaper, I wouldn’t have booked had I known. You should offer the option before booking, very misleading

The St Ives is a really family friendly hotel. All the staff were very helpful and friendly. The kids entertainment was very good. If I had one critique it would be that the £9 charge for a kids meal is quite expensive for a two year old. Maybe under 5’s should eat for less? It didn’t spoil our break though. Would thoroughly recommend this hotel.
