Far better than expected, the little things like a qr code for facilities and things to do in area, biscuits, hot chocolate, peacefulness, a guest lounge with a view and a breakfast cooked and served to order, with fruit, cereals, toast, cheeses and pastries from the breakfast buffet. If you want guests to return, this is how to do it!

We have stayed at the Jamaican Inn before as we like the location. Easy access to North and South Cornwall beaches like Padstow and Looe. Really good receptionist - friendly and welcoming. Room really nice in the new part. Wanted a relaxing coffee and biscuits after the journey. No biscuits - when asked they had run out. The kind receptionist gave us free crisps from the bar instead. Good meal in the restaurant in the evening and good service. The evening sleep was ok although the room was very very hot. Breakfast - really terrible. Shown to seat at 9.20. Had cereal and drinks to start. Very limited selection

Not the best experience

Issue with our booking through hotels.com which meant we had to pay again so now we have been double charged. Receptionists were lovely but the bar and restaurant side made us feel like a bit of a burden. Overall the hotel was nice and being at such an amazing venue was amazing but we probably won’t be going back again. Hopefully Hotels.com do the right thing and refund us for their technical issues as well.
