We found the rooms lacked attention to cleaning detail. Bathroom you could see areas that had not been cleaned. Also we could hear other people in rooms above and next to us. For the price it was not worth it. I am sure I can find better value out there. Having said that the full English breakfast was very good... More

We had a three course Sunday Lunch in quiet surroundings. Service and food were good (even though chef forgot the Yorkshire puddings) and we enjoyed the experience. We will be back and feel the place has improved greatly. Competing with the Marsh Harrier down the road is hard, so I suggest the management offers some kind of special offer, like... More

Obviously an old hotel that they aren't spending very much money on updating, but they still want to charge the same amount as the newer places. With that said, it was warm, clean and had the basics. Fine for an overnight stay.

Having been an AA member since 1984 I have normally been satisfied with the category of hotel but this is definitely not a 3 star hotel although a certificate hangs in the reception booth. There only appears to be about 5 members of staff, the rooms as viewed on the website may look modern and up to date but this... More

A lovely over night stay on a weekend cycling tour with 10 yo son. Room was lovely and clean (no signs of any cobwebs) and staff were polite. Was concerned with the number of people in the bar, but couldn't hear them in the room. Food was lovely and plentiful. Can't really comment on the negative reviews as we didn't... More

I have stayed here three times and on all occasions have been greeted warmly by the staff. The rooms are adequate and the location is quite goo to wander around St Ives. What has disappointed me is the fact that on two of the three occasions I have had no hot water in the morning. This appears to be a... More

we've recently got married and had our reception at Oliver's Lodge Hotel, from the moment we knew we were going to hold our reception there the staff were absolutely fantastic giving us advice for nothing, but if you called the hotel wanting to speak to Nelson, you'd be answered by a rude male voice who turns out to be the...

The room was dirty - including a really nasty stain on the curtain and cobwebs everywhere. We had to remove a spider from the kettle. The breakfast was inedible - except for the eggs, which the attentive waitress made sure were done exactly as we asked. The staff (mostly Eastern European) were polite and helpful, but this didn't make up... More
