Everything! I can’t think of anything I would change or improve on. The small touches made it exceptional.

Glad we got tickets for the Minack Theatre and explored the Gobal Telecommunications Museum, took the Coaster bus several tiimes, including to Land's End and walked the Coastal path to Sennen. Enjoyed the Penlee art gallery, especially in the midst of reading "Summer in February." Enjoyed a meal at the oldest pub, and at the Longboat Inn. The staff at the Info Centre were the best - gave us so many tips and set us on the right buses.

i like walking on the promenade, along to Newlyn, took the Mounts Bay coast path to Marazion, took the bus to Trengwainton gardens- lovely to see the magnolias, rhododendrons and camellias - interesting walks round the gardens and a lovely cafe with friendly staff and good food.
Visited Trewidden gardens by bus and also took the train to St. Ives- a lovely scenic run along the coast.
Penzance town has a nice selection of shops and it is worth exploring the back streets and the area round Chapel street. On previous visits have been to the Morrab gardens and other parks. Penzance is easy to walk round, has a good bus service and the tourist information staff are very knowledgable and helpful.

Went in the end of February, it was a quiet time with everything closing by 10pm, and last buses leaving early, but it's just as lovely if not more so as any other time of the year could be. Even for hiking, if you get ready for the wind, the rain, the fog, the mud and the cold.

We came in February so not very busy.
We came in February so not very busy. Many places to walk around, lovely garden in the center of town. Great beach, St Michael's Mount very close by. St Ives also not far away. Great place as a bae to see Cornwall.
A five star stay with Ali and Mike and Elvis the dog . They were gracious hosts, the room was excellent in decor size cleanliness. I can’t remember ever having a better stay, both myself and Steph my wife would like to thank our hosts for a great stay and a much needed break. We would like to congratulate them on
achieving the no.1 slot of all the guest houses in the Penzance area for quality and value - a well deserved accolade for all their hard work. Can recommend Holbein House to everyone thinking of staying - five stars ! ***** 😀
The building from the outside is good and it is a listed building and I should have been more careful before selecting this hotel but I was tricked by previous reviews. View from first room was ok, second room was good, but that is the only thing you can like about this old building.
Restaurant is also fine with variety of food options.
One outstanding thing is the Reception staff which is welcoming, caring & knowledgeable and provided recommendations for the restaurants in Penzance and some places for us to visit. 5 stars for them.
Lovely staff - Joe helped us with our cases, made sure we had a table for dinner, worked the bar in the evening and made exceptional coffee to go with our cooked-to-order breakfast in the morning. The grilled seabass I had for dinner was truly the best I have had in years - cooked to perfection - and my husband's fish and chips was wonderful too. The location of this hotel is perfect to catch the Scillonian ferry, and a short walk from the Penzance train station. Totally satisfied.
Went as a family of 7 for one night. It was perfect for us in Penzance. Room was plenty big enough for all of us - 3 bunk beds and enough space to set up our portable crib. Toilet and shower was outside of the room, but was convenient and clean. Also got the full English breakfast which was fresh cooked and we thought was a good value as well.
Kids always love the bunk bed experience. Wife loved the setting of the hotel. I loved the value. Would definitely return.
The hotel was in a great location in a quiet road on the edge of Penzance, an easy walk into town or down to the promenade. The room was comfortable with everything we needed - maybe a little small. The ensuite shower room was good and the breakfast choices great - everything thing including cereal, fruit, yoghurt and a cooked breakfast as well. The owner had lots of very useful tips about places to visit, where best to park and places to eat tin the evening.
Parking available for 2 or 3 cars round the back of the hotel - opposite tennis courts, or on street with no restrictions. Great shared facilities which are ideal for bringing back a takeaway and using the glasses provided for wine etc. Huge wooden dining table.
Room perfectly clean and spacious. Great to use the TV to log into Netflix and Wi-Fi works perfectly.
A great place to stay in Penzance. We'll be back again to further explore coastal areas.
Everything! The experience was absolutely first class! Was made to feel very welcome from Making the initial booking right up to checking out, Marc and the staff were absolutely fantastic! I travel around the country an awful lot this is by far the best hotel experience I've had now when I'm in penzance I simply wouldn't go anywhere else can't recommend it highly enough. Thanks for such a wonderful experience guys keep up the good work!.
The decor of the property, in the lounge, bedroom and staircases was just beautiful. A lot of thought has gone into it for sure. Also the service was amazing in terms of checkin process and receiving new/clean teabags and towels etc. This was our first hotel stay in Penzance and we wouldn't want to stay anywhere else now that we've been here.
Very cosy house. The owner thought of everything, the house has all you need for the holiday with family or friends, plus it’s pet friendly.
This was our third time in Penzance, but first tending a cottage instead of hotel, and we will stick with cottage offers from now on :).
Strongly recommend!
Hosts are Sally & Alan—very nice and helpful with daily journeys. Breakfast served individually in A pleasant dining room, for all guests. Room was well appointed, bright, with a small bathroom. Everything very clean and well planned. The best choice of B & B’s in the Promenade area of Penzance.
I really like the staff here, who are elderly people with the utmost euthusiasm and passion with this work, which should be appreciated by every working person. Salute! The location of this hotel is pretty good, and you can have the seaview from your window!
Had a fantastic time, excellent hosts with great local knowledge. Room nicely furnished, extremely clean.
Great choice for breakfast. No issues with parking. Excellent location.
Would stay again if we return to Penzance.
1. Quiet, sheltered location surrounded by mature gardens.
