We needed a break away!. This was the first time I had booked a holiday on the Net!! I could not believe how reasonably priced the booking was. The Hotel was really good. We knew we would have a standard room, but it was excellent, very clean, a good size, maybe the furniture was a little dated, but it was... more

Just returned from a break here and really loved this hotel, it has recently been refurbished and the bar and terrace areas are lovely ( we used to go in for a drink when we were in newquay before it was refurbished) the room we had was a premium double no 220, the views were outstanding, it was spotlessly clean... more

We were attracted by the hotel’s website which is one of the best we have seen showing a modern and nicely decorated environment. During our arrival we realised that none of what we had seen and imagined applied to this hotel. We booked 2 standard rooms which were VERY dirty. The bathroom was never cleaned (with hair in the bath... more

All at the Great Western Hotel are sorry that these guests did not enjoy their stay at our Hotel, but would like to clarify a few points raised. The Hotels website has pictures of both the recently refurbished rooms as well as the standard rooms, which are awaiting refurbishment. It is also pointed out on the website that some of...

We booked for one night at this hotel. Although the hotel had vacancies we were given the worst room in hotel. At the back overlooking filthy pipes and blood all over the valance on the bed. Asked to be moved and got a room overlooking the sea but still very grubby. This room had been given the most basic of... more

The view form our room was good and the hotel was very clean, food realy nice maybe could have added a few more things to menu, but loved the muscles! Thankyou for making our first stay in Newquay so... more

I couldn't recommend staying at this hotel due to the carbon monoxide leak which occurred during our stay, resulting in the evacuation of all guests. Having been out on the 2nd evening of our stay we returned to the hotel at 1am to be greeted by the Police, Fire and Resue Service, Paramedics and hotel and brewery staff (the hotel... more

Just returned from a weekend in Cornwall. Booked this hotel as a walk in off the street as the hotel I'd booked in advance was a complete dive (not at all like it was advertised on the net) so ran out of that one and into the Great Western. I had been worried about booking the Great Western first because... more

This hotel was a little disappointing. The welcome and staff were great, and very helpful when we asked for anything, but the decor could definitely do with a update. Our bathroom did not have a shower, and the hot water came on intermittently. The location was fantastic, though -- just beside the sea, and just next door to Reef surf... more

The location was right in the centre of town..a couple minutes from the beach-great! The breakfast was good, always plenty to keep you going and the staff were very pleasent. The room was... more
