Guest Reviews
- Gayle (10/5): - Absolutely lovely with amazing view of the sea
- Julie (10/5): - I went for my birthday & chose the hotel for the location, stunning views & closeness to the Minack theatre. Stunning location, right on the beach, the staff were very attentive and couldn't have done more and all in all made it a very special stay for my birthday.
- Karen (10/5): Room with a view - Fantastic location and view from our room, really comfortable and welcoming. Great breakfast and added bonus of yoga class if we wanted to greet the day. Love to go back!
- Sedley (10/5): - The location was absolutely stunning! Watched the sunset over the cove. Staff were welcoming and kind. The room was just lovely- so many thoughtful details. Highly recommend!!
- Toby (8/5): - Had a lovely stay at The Old Success Inn. We booked a room with sea view and were not disappointed. The breakfast was really good and kept us going well into the day. We ate in the restaurant one evening and the food was really good. Only issue was the bathroom fan was really loud, however forgot to tell them this when checking out, so hopefully they will read this review. Overall thought the stay was great.
- Paul (10/5): - Room was clean and comfortable, well equipped and supplied. Location is amazing, right next to the beach. Perfect views Breakfast excellent, good quality and a huge choice. Best of all were the staff - all very welcoming and helpful, in a natural, non-corporate. Congrats to them all. Only downside was the room - number 15 - which has poor sound isolation from reception and bar. It has windows that are overlooked by the terrace so you have the noise and the lack of privacy following from that. I’ve given five stars because of the outstanding staff but I would only stay here again if I was sure to avoid that room.
- Gregory (8/5): - Friendly staff. Nice ambience.
- Nikki (10/5): Fantastic view, lovely food - We were able to check in early which was a nice touch, as were the complementary drinks and snacks. We ate outside in the afternoon and the burger was delicious. The bed was a bit on the soft side for my liking but I had a wonderful night’s sleep. Breakfast was lovely, but it is cooked to order so factor that into your timing. All in all a wonderful stay, will definitely be back
- Nicole (10/5): - Loved our stay here. Pub staff was very kind, food was great. Our room was right over the pub and it wasn’t loud
- Stephen (8/5): - Love this Inn - charming & luxurious but unfortunately has some downsides which they probably can’t fix due to the age of the building & regulations. Absolutely stunning room, the best bed I’ve ever slept in was simply amazing! Water pressure in the shower along with lack of hot water was disappointing to say the least even when used at random times. Windows are only able to open 3” which is probably some random health & safety law but again disappointing to have an amazing view spoiled. Staff are exceptional and will go out of their way to help with any queries.
- Ben (10/5): A* - Incredible place with amazing views will be going back for sure
- beverly (8/5): Great view - We both found the bed uncomfortable (a personal thing), windows need attention (room 12) Loverly view, excellent bathroom
- JAMES (10/5): Pleasant surprise - One night stay, late arrival early checkout. Great place, nice cozy pub downstairs - had tagliatelle which was good. Room comfy, warm, great, lovely bed. Nice toiletries, amenities. Left too early for breakfast but knew it would've been good just from the feel of the place. Decided to check out early doors, visit some places for work then come back at 9am for the breakfast (included). Correct decision, it was amazing. Nothing against the normal run of the mill chain pubs I tend to stay in when on the road so much, but this was refreshing and welcome change. Just a shame I my stay was so short...
- Judith (8/5): Access to some rooms can be challenging! - Room access was very difficult for my husband who has mobility issues. Next to time I will ask for a room with easier access. However, the view from our room was fabulous so access difficulties accepted. Staff tried to resolve this and were very helpful and supportive.
- Christine (10/5): Couples night away. - Very clean and a really lovely room, luxurious with bathrobes. The fridge with drinks and snacks to buy was a nice touch, as were the two complimentary cans of Korev. Great shower room. Fantastic view. Couldnt ask for more. The staff are very welcoming, attentive and helpful. We enjoyed our evening meal and breakfast which has a great choice.
- Brian (10/5): - Lovely hotel with a fantastic location , rooms very comfortable and clean . Excellent value for money . One side note is please allow an extra £9 per day parking fee as hotel does not have parking and you have to use beach car park opposite.
- robin (8/5): - Comfortable but noisy
- Verified traveler (10/5): Happy Place - This Inn was everything we wanted for our 4 Night 5 day stay. A definite happy place memory. Staff were lovely.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great pub & restaurant at the hotel.
- Thomas (8/5): - Lovely!
- Jennifer (10/5): Lovely spot - Lovely spot. Our room had all the amenities needed to support less able people.
- Kim (8/5): - The Old Success Inn is in the most stunning location and the staff all tried hard to please . However, we thought the bedroom we booked was a deluxe room , which although looked great on first impressions, it had a few issues. Unfortunately, the bath tap dripped all day and night and you couldn’t fill the bath as there wasn’t enough water pressure. The shower wasn’t much better, especially if you have to wash your hair , it took ages to rinse. We live by the sea so are used to windows banging and dealing with that when it’s windy but the bathroom issues need to be sorted. The breakfast and evening meals were good, quite basic but cooked well. I would also suggest that if you are staying , remember to flip over your sign on the door if you need your room cleaning or fresh towels. We didn’t see it and came back to our towels still wet and piled up in the bath where we had left them at the end of the day. This was rectified quickly once we realised but just a note to self to check if you need room doing , flip your sign over hanging on the outside door. Other than that, we had a great stay and will definitely return next year but maybe stay in a different room … unless they get the tap and pressure sorted . A beautiful location and full of character.
- Darren (10/5): - Great place to stay and the staff were really really polite and provided an incredible service.
- STEPHEN (10/5): - Characterful property
- jayne (10/5): - I loved my stay here. It was one of my favourite stays on my trip. Tom was brilliant at check in amd was available to help when i needed. My room No1 was stunning, beautiful decor, and views of the bay. Sennen Cove is dreamy and i highly recommended it
- Man kit (10/5): - Lovely place to stay in Sennen, staff is very welcoming and we got a really nice view of the beach from our room. The room was big and comfortable, the only thing I would advice is work around the parking situation. We stayed in August and could not find a space to park to check in but we were early. So ended up going away and coming back.
- Kelly (10/5): - Lovely relaxing stay. Room exceeded expectations and the having the pub downstairs was so nice for a drink in the evening after being out walking all day.
- Marie (8/5): - Room was lovely overlooking the beach , shower was very weak , very busy inn and food was good , even staying you were not guaranteed a table to eat or drink except for breakfast
- Richard (8/5): - C
- Kristina (10/5): - We absolutely loved our stay at the Old Success Inn. The location was fantastic, the room was beautifully designed, the quality was brilliant and I adored the small touches like the complimentary Korev and the Robert’s radio gently playing as we arrived. The staff were friendly and professional and made our short stay thoroughly enjoyable.
- gail (4/5): Expectations must have been too high - The room was nice until you looked. Bed mattress stained, though was covered with mattress protector. Lot of places hadn’t been dusted . Cobwebs around windows. Coffee machine, kettle and fridge only had 2 socket, so had to pull fridge out and swop plugs when wanting tea or hot chocolate. Breakfast was very well done, asked to change and brought same dish back. Waitress even said chef said send it back to customer. Very busy but no excuse. Informed person on reception that said they’d put breakfast back on our card but that wasn’t the point ! Was so looking forward to a night away. Very very disappointing
- Tony (10/5): Amazing place to stay - Great place to stay, Amazing views. Room was perfect, staff are friendly, so close to the beach
- Tony (10/5): Amazing place to stay - Great place to stay, Amazing views. Room was perfect, staff are friendly, so close to the beach
- Tony (10/5): Amazing place to stay - Great place to stay, Amazing views. Room was perfect
- Judith (8/5): The Old Success Inn - beautiful location! - Very enjoyable stay. Location and views are wonderful. View from room is across the Sennen white sand beach. Room was neat and well presented. Well stocked mini fridge and refreshments tray. Weather was perfect which helps.
- Michael (10/5): Old Success Inn - Great room, great view, food was excellent and clear water at the beach
- Paul (10/5): - good all round
- Andrew (8/5): Great location on the beach - Great location
- Heather (8/5): - The location of the hotel is great with beautiful views of Sennen Beach and surrounding countryside. Great access to the coastal path as well. Staff was friendly and helpful. My room was clean, comfortable and cozy. My only issue was the noise in my room. I stayed in #15, which is directly behind the reception desk and I could hear guest interactions well into the evening and first thing in the morning. It was reasonably quiet from 10:30pm until 7:15am. It is an older property, so sound proofing is not so good, but the decor and amenities were very good.
- Judith (8/5): Amazing Views - Amazing views from a comfortable room. Guide to using Coffee Machine needed. TV Control - guide needed!
- Paul (10/5): - This was a really welcoming hotel, staff were lovely, very helpful. We stayed in a luxury room literally overlooking the sea and view of the bay, which was wonderful. Parking is via a car park just across the road from the hotel. The cooked food and pastries at breakfast were very good. The bar also had a good vibe and also serves food in addition to the restaurant. Would stay again.
- Sunneva (10/5): - 10/10 stay. Beautiful room, stunning views, delicious food, friendly staff. February was a perfect off-season stay. Access to south west coast path with a 6mile return walk to Nanjizal beach. Would love to stay again.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The room was very clean. Very warm though. The radio was on for some reason, maybe standard procedure. Good mattrass, good shower. Overall a very good experience.
- SIU WAI JANE (10/5): Excellent - Very impressive on our stay
- Susan (10/5): A wonderful location - The staff were friendly and helpful. The views are stunning. Can’t wait to return and stay in the newly refurbished room 13, with stunning views
- Peter (8/5): - Excellent location across the road from Sennen Cove. Bedroom, food and service all good
- Aruna (10/5): - Staff very helpful changing our room from an upstairs room to a ground floor room to accommodate my wife’s elderly parents. Rooms were excellent and breakfast was very good. Thank you
- Karen (8/5): Lovely hotel facing the sea - The hotel was in a lovely spot and the room was comfortable. The breakfast and evening meals were very good and the staff very attentive and friendly
- Stephen (8/5): Go on treat yourself - Excellent choice. Great location and our room (11) what a great view. bar was fantastic atmosphere and good selection of beers and wines. Restaurant was excellent nice selection of meals at a reasonable price.
- Helen (10/5): Fantastic Stay - Stunning views. Friendly and accommodating staff. Superb breakfast.
- Callum (10/5): - Staff, room and food were excellent
- DEAN (10/5): - We stayed at this lovely Pub in May. We had a small double which was comfortable, clean and had a Sea View. Our stay was made even more enjoyable by the staff, who were all really friendly and most helpful. There is a very small Car Park at the front of the Pub but we parked on the Beach Car Park across the road from the Pub (£9 for 24Hrs).
- Tracey (10/5): Perfect Location - First time staying at the Old Success Inn but will return. Loved the location and rooms and the staff were all very helpful and friendly
- Mark (8/5): - Very nice stay
- Clare (10/5): - Absolutely beautiful room, huge bed, brand new bathroom, amazing sea view. Great attention to detail. Staff were lovely and the hotel is in a brilliant location. Good value for money given breakfast was also included
- Jason (4/5): - Room was good however, food & drinks were Veryan average!
- Tina (8/5): Old success - Lovely hotel very friendly staff Fabulous food
- Sherwin (10/5): - I was given a beautiful room with sea views. Being winter it was wonderfully quiet apart from the waves 😊
- Abigail (10/5): Relaxing break amazing view's - Service was brilliant, all the staff we encountered were helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Views from our room were amazing and the food was really good.
- Alan (10/5): Comfortable hotel in stunning location - An enjoyable stay in every way. A great room and spoiled by great staff.
- Julie (10/5): Fantastic Weekend - A wonderful find. Ticked all the boxes for us. The staff were all super helpful and friendly. The room was high spec (even Elemis products in the bathroom. To wake up and lie in bed seeing the sea is priceless. Will definitely return! 😁
- Katheryn (10/5): Success Inn - We loved every minute. Superb location,good staff and good food
- Jo (10/5): Wow! - Amazing, stunning location. Room lovely, staff very friendly. All good was outstanding. Will definitely return.
- Andrew (6/5): - Location was excellent for a Lands End - John O'Groats drive. Understaffed, we hadn't booked a meal so there was no hope of getting food, hotel was a little noisy from the kitchens which detracted from getting an early night and the pillows were like sleeping on a sack of spuds!!
- David (10/5): A perfect venue - Excellent hotel in a fantastic position. Staff and facilities where brilliant. Highly recommended whether for couples or families
- C A (10/5): - Great!
- PATRICK (8/5): Short Break - Great location good size rooms and en-suite. Could do better with gluten free options and be shown on the menu’s
- Malcolm (10/5): Just Fab! - This place is one of my favourites and I stay as a Guide in many hotels! Position fab and new rooms so well designed. WiFi not good yet out of hotels control….
- Mary (10/5): - great location, very comfortable room, very friendly staff, parking is difficult
- Candice (10/5): - Lovely hotel, lovely staff. Comfy beds, thick towels, had a great overnight stay. Would return
- Gordon (8/5): Overnight stay. - From checking in to leaving the service was brilliant. Friendly and efficient. Clean comfortable room with modern and bright feel. Food was good. Would definitely recommend a stay here. Take away cups in bedrooms a great idea to fill up with hot drinks on leaving.
- Stephanie (10/5): Great place - We stayed for four nights in a double room at the beginning of March. We had a fantastic view of the beach and surrounding hills. Bed was very comfortable. Room was as warm as you liked as easy to change temperature on the heater. Staff in hotel, bar and restaurant were friendly and efficient . Breakfast, lunch and evening meals were wonderful. Would definitely recommend !
- David (4/5): Poor service and onsite facilities. Nice room - Whilst the location of this hotel is great and the room was clean and neat I wouldn’t go again. Coffee machine in the room didn’t work. Neither did the bedside lamp. Tried to report it but reception was closed and no one answered the bell. We decided based on the advice from reception when we originally checked in to go for dinner in the restaurant. Checked the menu and there was a good range. Checked into the restaurant and was going to speak to the receptionist that booked me in but she was too busy on her laptop behind the bar. Went up to the restaurant to be told that they only have one chef. 75% of the menu was gone and other items sold out. As vegan/vegetarians there was only 2 meals for us. My partner is allergic to mushrooms so could have it and the second meal wasn’t vegan so she couldn’t eat it. Ended up in us leaving and having to drive 30 miles to find somewhere for dinner. Then the alarms either were being set or went off around 2330 which was very loud in such a calm place. Next morning go for the inclusive breakfast to be told again that they don’t have everything that’s part of the menu. Went to check out and no staff so not even able to address the issues. Poor service. Payed good money for a romantic night away but it was a proper downer.
- Mark (10/5): Old success! Complete success more like. - The staff were excellent, the room was stunning, the food was great. There’s a great team working here.
- Darrel (10/5): - Amazing location,great views and the sound of the sea. I couldnt ask for more.
- Stephen (10/5): friendly comfortable and convenient - Very convenient, friendly, modern and comfortable place to stay. Stayed in old building and this was modern decorated and well equipped. Good size too.
- Kathryn (8/5): - Great pub, nice staff, great atmosphere, would visit again
- Ian (10/5): Ocean Views! - Great place to stay, right on the seafront at Sennen. Steve & Babs we’re very welcoming and gave us all the COVID stuff we needed to know. Our room (3) was a bit on the compact side, but perfectly good. We had asked for a sea view & got one to the side, which meant you could lay in bed & watch the ocean. Breakfast is very good, with huge portions! We ate in the restaurant one night & that was great too. There was building work going on while we were there, but this should be completed by the time this is published. The new rooms that are being built look right out at the ocean & should be fabulous. All in all a great place to stay. If the restaurant is fully booked, you might need to go further afield to eat as there’s not a great deal in Sennen. We walked up to St Just & ate at the Kings Arms, which was excellent & well worth a visit.
- Hugo (8/5): - Perfect stay. Great breakfast.
- Rich (10/5): Great hotel - Really nice hotel lots of building work going on.. didn't affect our stay. Food and seevice was excellent, would stay again.
- Chris (8/5): Overall fantastic stay, a few minor disappoinments - Overall it was a wonderful stay. Room was fantastic - clean, very comfortable and finished to a very high standard. Stunning views from our windows. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent, and they even had almond milk latte for my wife. So very happy. A few slight disappointments, given the price of the room, but none of them greatly affected our stay. At check in they didnt have a record of our payment, but they still allowed us straight to our room. Wifi was disappointing- we had to sign in to the network every two hours and it was quite slow and temporamental. It was a shame that they are building new rooms in the old car park, so we had to pay for public parking. And i was sad to see that they had converted the old, very lovely, lounge area into extra bedrooms. But as I said, none of that greatly affected our stay, and the most important thing for us was that the rooms were very good.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The folk who staff the Inn are warm and welcoming. The bed was comfortable, the room warm, the water hot and the food in the restaurant delicious. The bar was full and there was live music. The scenery of Sennen Cove is stunning, and the public car park is very handy and very inexpensive. An overnight stay - too brief to fully appreciate the area. Hopefully there will be a next time !
- MR IAN (10/5): irthday Celebration - A very pleasant couple of nights enjoying the hospitality of this welcoming and friendly hotel. I would fully recommend it as an excellent base to explore the Lands End peninsula and surrounds. It will be even more delightful once the ongoing building work is complete.
- Stephen (10/5): - friendly & relaxing
- Verified traveler (4/5): - The staff were good and friendly and accommodation was clean and nice but Internet didn't work and not possible to make or receive calls unless you go outside. Plus the TV didn't have a HDMI connection to use firestick or any other media so only local TV 😡
- Peter (10/5): Fantastic - Lovely place with lovely friendly staff. It was spotless and whilst the weather outside did its worts the staff did their very best. Location right on the beach. Any closer and the bed would get wet at high tide.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - It’s overlooking one of the most beautiful beaches in Cornwall. The staff are very friendly and our room had wonderful views
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Friendly staff, great area. They have fulfilled all our requests. Amazing see view. Nice prepared food, very good breakfast. Would definitely recommend.
- Peter (10/5): - The perfect bank holiday weather and the best views .loved my short stay .
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Nice little hotel right on the beach. We had a sea view room and it was a tremendous view of the beach and ocean. Our room was very clean and large and the bed was very comfortable. The staff were all excellent and very friendly. The food was very good, we had dinner there and the included hot breakfast which was made fresh for us. The only minor issue was the upstairs bar patio wasn't cleaned while we were there and the furniture was a bit old, just a general dingy appearance.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Great location, but parking is an issue. Very friendly staff.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The pub is in a beautiful part of Cornwall and the beach is in walking distance.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Lovely quaint old pub and hotel but you have to watch out on the stairs. Quite narrow steps.
- Anna (8/5): Lovely beach opposite hotel - Spacious room above a pub but quiet. Just across from the beach and hilly walk to Lands End. Parking is bit hit or miss as it is a busy pub
- Brian (8/5): - Amazing room and place to stay but not good service in the restaurant. Staff need training.
- Nicky (8/5): It Is An Old Success - The Old Success Inn is a great place to stay. It was clean, and welcoming and all the staff were friendly and helpful. It’s been over 24 years since we visited and it’s been taken over by St Austell brewery, and they’re doing a great job with the refurbishment of this hotel. There’s a lovely nautical theme throughout, and it’s been tastefully decorated too. We selected a deluxe room, so we had a sea view, king size bed and lovely bathroom, with bathrobes if we needed them. The toiletries were Orla Keily and they smelt delightful. Very welcome after a long day’s coastal walk. The rooms were cleaned to a high standard. The hospitality tray was also great with Clipper tea, and the most lovely Cup to Bean coffee and hot chocolate too. We couldn’t resist the Cornish biscuits! We ate in the bar each night, and the food was great pub style classics. I would prefer some low fat options, as I’m doing SlimmingWorld and the salads weren’t really compatible. Yes, I was on holiday, so I should get over that, but maybe suggest baked potatoes on the menu. The food we ate was lovely, my favourite being the Hake chef’s special, which was absolutely gorgeous. Breakfast was lovely with classic hot or buffet choices and the staff were delightful and charming both at breakfast and in the bar. I look forward to coming to visit a gem and would definitely recommend this lovely hotel if you want to escape to a beautiful and charming part of Cornwall.
