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.
Must say that the hotel location was convenient.
It was a 15 -20 mins walk to Penzance station and 5 mins to the promenade.
Liz was very sweet and had offered us rooms as soon as they were ready even before the checkin time.
She also did accommodate our request to store the birthday cake and allow us to use the breakfast room for the birthday cake cutting :)
She was kind enough to guideand explain us about all the nearby options to eat and for places to visit
Breakfast was good and filling
Overall lovely stay for the price paid !!!
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 ! ***** 😀
Booked an overnight stay as a result of having to alter our travel plans due to the rail strike.
Arrived late and tired after a 10 hour coach ride to be met by a cheery, friendly barman who checked us in. After a welcome drink and a hot bath we slept well in a clean, comfortable room.
Breakfast next morning was very good and served by friendly staff. Reception staff were lovely and helpful too..
The hotel is so interesting to look around, it's history is fascinating. Good location for exploring Penzance.
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.
Beautifully presented, modern and clean. Bed very comfortable with pristine 4 star hotel like bedding, spare blankets and towels available. Fantastic appliances in kitchenette all you need for self catering. Great location in centre of Penzance with access to train if needed and lovely St.Ives beaches only a 20-30 min drive away!
It is a cosy place to stay close to the Penzance Railway Station. Shopping is convenient because there are quite a lot of supermarkets, groceries, bars, and shops nearby. We were offered Cornwall brand biscuits and chocolates, which were tasty. The sofa bed was a bonus, in addition to the 2 beds upstairs.
The Queens Hotel is a beautiful and historic building. The staff are excellent and the waiting staff in the restaurant were really friendly and obliging. Super sea front view room with a very comfortable bed. Two comfortable chairs and table with huge t.v screen. Very tasty breakfast, freshly cooked.
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!
1. Quiet, sheltered location surrounded by mature gardens.
2. Perfect location for exploring key tourist locations. Plenty to do within 30 minute drive.
3. Key amenities in Newlyn and Penzance within 5-10min drive.
The hotel was beautiful, the staff were very nice and breakfast was delicious. Really enjoyed my room and bathroom with sea views, a bath robe and a bath tube. Highly recommend this hotel.
Cosy cottage perfect for a winter trip to Cornwall, snug lounge with wood burner and comfy furniture. Easy access to St Ives (via beautiful coastal road) Penzance and Newlyn.
Nice cozy hotel and good location between Penzance and Newlyn, right on the coast. Friendly team. We only stayed one night and did not use the restaurant/bar.
It has parking included on the grounds of the hotel, which was handy. The location is correct, in between Penzance and Marazion. Not much to add, sorry.
