Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The King of Prussia offers a prime location right next to the quayside, providing great views to watch the world go by, especially from the beautifully decorated Super King rooms that overlook the square where the Polruan Ferry comes in. Guests love the recently renovated bar where they can enjoy excellent crab nachos while watching sports. The breakfast is frequently mentioned as being a highlight, though some guests have occasionally found the bar/eating area to not entirely match the online pictures.

window table interior design music selection quay views

i was pleased to find the staff cleared a table by the window when we asked for a drink. the interior design looked appealing and offered a good ambiance. i enjoyed the music selection curated by a lady from texas. the views over the quay are superb.

the access to the hotel presented challenges for someone with mobility issues. we only found the side entrance by chance.
