Artist Residence Penzance

A fabulous hotel with an atmosphere made most welcoming by the amazing team. We were so we'll looked after. The team really care about everything to ensure guests have a most enjoyable holiday. Breakfast is great and the restaurant serves fantastic dishes in the evening. There is a lovely quirky courtyard at the back of the hotel to enjoy drinks. The rooms are comfortable, also with quirky decor.

Such a gorgeous hotel. Our cosy room was perfect. The staff are lovely - particular shout out to Jordan, who was so welcoming when we arrived and every time we went in and out. And it’s so dog friendly. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting the area. It’s in a gorgeous street full of independent shops and eateries too.

Great location very close to ferry terminal & train station. A unscheduled but very pleasant stop over at Artists Residence on our way to Scilly Isles. Room was large & comfortable with a great bathroom. Lots of little extras in the room that were a nice touch. Staff were very welcoming & helpful. Didnt eat there so can’t comment on food. Would definitely stay again if in Penzance. Recommend.

We paid nearly £1400 for 2 night’s’ accomodation at the 3 bedroom cottage and it was a rip-off. The cottage was tiny : 3 bedrooms but only one toilet for the 4 of us. The worst was this: the cottage reeked of musty smell, like when one enters an old antique shop. Of course we were not expecting modern decor, but the smell of old wood and old furniture in that 3 days were unbearable we stayed out as much as possible. The smell made us question if the blankets draping over the sofa were cleaned. It was just a very uncomfortable experience. Some of us had to do work calls but phone lines didn’t work while in the premises. We couldn’t even call for taxis, “because Cornish houses were built long ago”, we were told. We asked for a change of rooms but were told all rooms were booked up and they were all the same, none of the rooms had any phone reception!! There were even splinters on the floor and two of my family caught splinters on their feet. Some of the bulbs on the cottage didn’t work. The cottage is in a sorry state. The check in experience was positive but I wish some of the effort could have been placed into making the place smell less musty and more liveable. The cottage had a small kitchenette and a dining table but it was so poorly ventilated that cooking fumes would stay on the furniture. We bought groceries to make simple breakfast but left all the produce there, unused as we didn’t want more smell to be stuck in the space. As the cottage was located next to the bar, we could hear people talking right into the night. The sound insulation was zero. If you listened carefully, you could even hear what they were saying. On the first night, a lady was screaming so loudly at wee hours of the morning it woke up all up. We will not go again & would NOT recommend it. It was the worst stay we ever had in any travel accomodation.
