Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests frequently highlight the hotel's central location in St Just, making it easy to explore the town and its amenities like the Co-op supermarket across the street. Many enjoyed rooms overlooking the market square, sometimes with views of Christmas decorations, and found the bedrooms to be tastefully decorated and spacious. The garden, with its colourful flowers, is often mentioned as a great place to relax; however, some guests in rooms above the bar have occasionally experienced noise from events. Breakfast is often described as excellent with plenty of choice.

Fantastic Stay! Highly Recommend!

wide choice helpful staff lovely garden enjoyable stay
The breakfast had a really wide choice of food! Dinner also proved good. The staff were cute and helpful, too. I give them 10/10. The pub garden was quite lovely, and I spent a lot of time there. I really enjoyed my stay there!
The room had a small issue. It lacked a lock on the bathroom door, slightly inconvenient.

Excellent Value Stay

helpful staff king size room fresh breakfast en suite
I found the staff very helpful. The hotel provided excellent value in a king size room. I also enjoyed a freshly cooked breakfast. The room included an en suite.
The menu offered limited options for vegetarians, so I had fewer choices than I would have liked.
Dining
9/10
The hotel served a nice breakfast with lots of variety. The staff accommodated my early start because of a flight cancellation and prepared my breakfast earlier. Dinner options were good, with well-prepared meals, though the menu could have more vegetarian choices.
Location
10/10
The hotel is in the town center near a Co-op supermarket and a smaller, specialized store. It is also conveniently located for exploring local tourist attractions and is an ideal base for scenic walks along the coast path.
Facilities
