The profile photo (overlooking beach with nice garden) is misleading as it is not the hotel that we booked. This led to us being disappointed upon arrival and basically for most of our stay. The Hotel is more oriented around it’s restaurant which has an expensive one price for all main meals and a very expensive cooked breakfast or more affordable very limited continental breakfast. We had to try really hard to enjoy our stay which we did as the surrounding area is beautiful. The staff at the hotel and restaurant did their best within a thinly manned hotel and room service which was very hit and miss. We really wanted to have a more comfortable hotel to have our one holiday of the year in and at the prices charged this hotel needs to do much better.

Good location. Well-appointed. Could be lovely. But staffing levels very low and we found they were mostly absent - this was of concern when we had a problem with a key, and we consider it could have become a safety issue. When we could get hold of them, staff were pleasant but relatively ineffectual. Cleaning was minimal - you shouldn't have to complain to have a bed made and bathroom cleaned properly - and we didn't request cleaning every day. It was noticeable that the large expanses of glass were not being cleaned. Wifi didn't work for us, no matter what we tried - but it worked elsewhere in the village. Everything seemed to run off a computer system which didn't function properly or had poor connection. No working aircon and windows in the room only opened a fraction. It was stifling. A very noisy mobile aircon unit was eventually put in the room on an extension lead. Musak on all day until 11.00pm, audible in the room. Musak until 9.00pm on the terrace very audible in the room. No privacy in rooms overlooking the terrace without closing the curtains. All the potentially great features of this hotel were eclipsed by a lack of staff and care - these things cannot be replaced by a computer programme and a remote mobile contact number. We were disappointed.

I would not recommend this hotel at all.

We did not stay at the hotel due to having both caught Covid. We asked the hotel with plenty of notice to either refund our booking because we were to unwell to travel, or to hold our finances so we could rebook when free of Covid. They absolutey refused us either option. So we paid out for two days stay but did not go there. This is why we give such a low star rating. I would now not recommend anyone use this hotel. Such old fashioned way of doing business in a modern era.

Lovely hotel but terrible breakfast sadly!

We stayed a couple of nights this week - pre-check-in service from Maria was amazing - really helpful messaging service - slightly frustrated however that hotels.com did not include the hidden additional cost of the extra bed for our daughter and dog this was added later and had to pay on check in! Room was lovely very spacious, quiet and great view (room 11) our main issue and reason for 3 stars for service was the breakfast - very expensive £18 for what we got - all very over-cooked full English and the coffee was the worst we have had! Such a shame as such a dog-friendly hotel and loved the fact that we could take her with us in all parts of the hotel! Loved Gorran Haven Overall very happy but the breakfast needs to be improved for that price!

Disappointing

Sadly this hotel doesn’t reach its potential. It is totally soulless and had no character or charm. Staff were friendly but never around. Dogs were allowed in the dining room at all times and on the terrace furniture. Continental breakfast was sparce to say the least and lacking imagination. Very disappointing as it’s not a cheap place to stay. Approach from the hotel carpark needs considerable attention to the window dressings and cleanliness of large window. Not what I had hoped for

Lovely hotel

Beautiful hotel in lovely setting. Friendly staff and lovely food. The only reason that I’ve given 4 stars as opposed to 5 was that my stay was affected by a hiccup that the hotel experienced, but this was dealt with quickly and professionally. Would definitely recommend a stay in this beautiful coastal setting.
