The property is not well represented in the description. The views are amazing but the ocean view may need to be reclassified as "you can almost see the ocean from your room"; during our stay it was very noisy, with poor Internet (when available) and the staff were incredibly rude. We did not like it so we left a day in advance, asking for a refund for the last night of our stay. They refused to do that and then refused to take calls or discuss with Orbitz. It was not a good experience, I would not recommend this hotel, even though the description and location make it seem appealing. I bet other hotels/inns/b&b in the areawould be much more friendly.

I was truly excited to stay at Camelot Castle having seen the building from the actual castle for the last 70 years. My room was comfortable and quiet. However, the ensuite bathroom was the stuff of nightmares. I am 81, have had spinal surgery twice not to mention a double fracture of the pelvis. I considered the bathroom with the step up, the slight catch on the inside of the step and the slippery nature of the material very dangerous.

Honestly I was a little worried after reading some of the bad reviews but honestly it has been an amazing stay, the staff were really friendly and helpful and the views are beautiful. The bathrooms are a little disappointing as they're really small but as long as I have a private toilet and shower I'm happy so it's not that big if a deal for me. Everything is so close if you wanted to walk and leave your car in the free car park too so that's a great bonus. If I were ever to visit Tintagel again I'd probably stay here as I love the venue

A very good value mid week break. Wifi was good. Shower area on the small side. Curtains (in the room) too small for the large window.

Lovely hotel showing it age but in an elegant way. Food good breakfast was enjoyable and portions good. The location is stunning views to die for. Fantastic staff nothing to much not that we asked for much. The only drawback was the “caravan module toilet / shower room “ now I’m an above average sized person but if I’d been twiggey I would have struggled. I suppose you get what you pay for, but if I had known before I went I would have upgraded. A real letdown and really all I can remember about the hotel. Overall a good break.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Jaded bedroom and surly waitresses.

Our room was not in a good condition, the best thing about it was the view. I understand they are renovating so obviously hadn’t got to room 104 yet. There was a damp large stain above the tiny “en-suite” and a cheap shower curtain, we didn’t even use the shower it was so uninviting. The receptionist tried to charge us for the room even though we had already paid in full. Very old and unattractive furniture in the room. We ate in the restaurant and had to send the wine back it was so bad. Service was slow and when I asked for a spoon the waitress took one off the next table and almost threw it down on the table. The common areas are nice and great paintings everywhere but a very unwelcoming feel to this hotel and not worth the money. We stayed at a cheaper hotel for the next two nights in St. Austell which had wonderful rooms, great food but more importantly very friendly welcoming staff.

1st class stay.

Amazing hotel with spectacular views. Service was first class by staff who always had a smile. One of the owners, Ted Stourton always seemed to be around checking that everything was ok, even at dinner moving from table to table, engaging with guests. Food was superb although menu was small. Will be returning in the near future.
