Sloppy, smelly and disappointing stay.

We chose this location to travel to other destinations before heading to Cornwall, but it was a disappointing stay for various reasons to many to name.

Where to start? Very friendly welcome from lovely lady. Room really clean but very small and stuffy (window opens a few inches but road noise awful). No WIFI which we asked about and were told it was being 'upgraded' and connection was 'fragile' so 'keep trying'. We tried for a couple of hours as we needed it due to there also being no phone signal. It didn't connect. Breakfast was a shambles. Choose from continental OR cooked but continental was missing advertised cheese and cooked meats. I asked if what was on the small table was the entire continental and was told 'yes, it's all there'. So I asked, if I choose a cooked breakfast, can I have a croissant, given that the continental had so little on it. Answer 'no, it's one or the other'. Hospitality at it's finest 🙄 Two types of croissant on offer. Burnt ones which appeared to be reheated from previous day and others which were lovely. They were the only 'bread' option on offer. Otherwise, cereal, juices, yogurts and apples so the poorest continental I have ever seen. Overall, this is a very overpriced hotel with little in the way of actual hospitality.

A historic hotel with lovely staff. The only downside was the previous occupant of the bedroom had left towels hanging behind a door and they didn’t get removed.

Great value stay

We enjoyed our stay at the George. Highlights were the staff, quality of breakfast and value for money. Our room was a little noisy due to traffic, which would be the only downside to our stay.
