Very nice room with an unexpected and wonderful upgrade. Food options require more attention with cut and quality of meats. Very helpful staff once dinner had been refunded. Overall a relaxing night enjoyed. Lord T Taylor

Dawn and Andrew.

Booked to meet a friend at short notice. The staff were charming and very friendly. The room was extremely clean warm and comfortable. I think we will be making a habit of staying at the Jamaica Inn as it’s equal distance between Great Torrington and Falmouth where we each live and it enables us to meet up more often with our very busy working schedules. Thank you for an enjoyable stay.

Second time round and just as good

I never go back to somewhere I haven’t experienced only good at, and this is my second time here. Same same. Great atmosphere, love the history, love the building and the surrounding area. Although not much to do in and around, the tranquility around is so wonderful. Great service as before and live the rooms!

Disappointing revisit

Disappointing revisit...the afore mentioned balcony was a step with two slimey bar stools to perch over a pitched roof, so from inside the room there was no view. Not the room advertised on hotels.com. The menu has changed and appears to be more in line with bulk chain buying. There was rugby in the bar and when we were chatting (no one else sat near the tv and in turn this was tge inly place we could sit) the person watching said rugby turned it up to volume 80, completely ruining any chance of conversation or a relaxing atmospheric evening. Tables were left uncleared, the menu asjed for did not appear so we tried to order off the menu online, however that had been superceeded, no table check on food or offer of desserts when cleared. Ok so many things could be ok its only a 3 star pub but after 5 previous visits its become apparent that there is a reliance on holidaymakers and heritage not returning customers. So sad, we even went to bed early in our expensuve attic style room.
