The hotel offers a stunning view of the valley from rooms with modern bathrooms, though the wardrobe placement is a bit odd. The rear view is lovely, but some balcony rooms may lack that feature. The service was excellent, with a pleasant welcome drink and attentive housekeeping, amplifying the stay. The location is quite convenient, close to South Cornwall attractions and within easy reach of Truro city centre, making it handy for exploring. The dining experience, although with limited items in the gyudon dishes, still provides a lovely view. Facilities are well-maintained, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable stay at a reasonable price.
