About Harbour Hotel Fowey
Harbour Hotel Fowey occupies a long-established Victorian building on the Esplanade, on the edge of town where the harbour opens out towards the sea. Formerly known simply as the Fowey Hotel, it has been renovated under the Harbour Hotels group into a contemporary, coastal-styled property while keeping period features such as a working antique lift.
The hotel's thirty-seven rooms and suites take a fresh, nautically-inflected approach to decor, with a number looking directly over the estuary towards Polruan. Harbour Kitchen, Bar & Terrace serves all-day dining built around locally sourced fish and steaks, and the split-level gardens across the road from the hotel, bisected by the South West Coast Path, are a popular spot for a Cornish cream tea in summer.
Its Esplanade position puts it a level, easy walk from the town centre rather than in the thick of the narrow lanes around the quay, which suits guests who want estuary views and a slightly more spacious feel without sacrificing proximity to Fowey's shops and restaurants.

Stayed 2 nights on a bed breakfast and dinner option The positives: All staff very friendly and efficient especially in the bar and restaurant. Decor was quirky and smart, beautiful views. The food was well presented and delicious and very good quality Gin and tonic in the room and a coffee pod machine Negative Probably the most uncomfortable bed ever. Two beds together to make a king size covered with lumpy misfitting topper. Duvet too small for cover leaving a foot of spare cover at the top Pillows were long but no filling. Given this was a superior sea view I expected better. The
