    The room had a great design, and the location was amazing right on the quay; the food at the Michelin-starred restaurant was fabulous.

    Its location at a short distance from a round stone artillery fortress was amazing. I was here for 3 nights and ate at Michelin-starred restaurant with a beautiful decor. The place had a quiet atmosphere. This hotel was quaint and I will be back...

    Staff seem genuinely friendly Views from the bedroom are fantastic Service is good

    A recycling policy would be good. I never like to see staff outside smoking at a place which serves food

    We had a brilliant stay at The Idle Rocks with exceptional service. The location is spectacular, adjacent to the delicious restaurant and overlooking the beautiful bay at St Mawes. The king room had a lovely interior design. Rewrite: Our stay at The Idle Rocks was absolutely fantastic, with exceptional service.

    Excellent location on the seafront with a good view through french windows over a bustling harbour. Excellent food and well deserves its two rosettes. Friendly and efficient staff.

    Not directly related to the hotel but as they have very limited car parking most guests use the council car park opposite. Be careful here as the description of charges is confusing and only coins are accepted, not notes or credit cards.

    Staff could have been more attentive when we arrived.

    We have stayed here before. We love the seafront location and the food was excellent. The hotel is very comfortable although the bedrooms need upgrading.

    The staff, as always, are all very friendly and it is particularly pleasing to see the same faces again and again, some of whom now recognise us

    The unit is beautifully designed with a great terrace and double aspect French style windows. The hotel is located as close to the sea as possible.- Easy access to St Mawes Church enhances the location.

    Great location, just a short walk from the impressive waterfront fortress and only 5 minutes from the city center. 🏰

    The view of the harbor from the room and the terrace. The restaurant was excellent for breakfast and dinner. There was public parking a short distance away at a reasonable price. We took the ferry to Falmouth and up the river to Truro.

    It is a old, historic hotel with no elevator.
