Guest Reviews
- Heuzeroth (6/5): Gute Lage ist nicht alles - Gefallen hat uns die Freundlichkeit des Personals und die Lage. Man ist sehr schnell an den Hafen und in die Innenstadt gelaufen. Die guten Bewertungen sind für uns nicht nachvollziehbar. Es ist alles sehr abgewohnt und vor allem sehr hellhörig. Das Frühstück ist allenfalls durchschnittlich, der Kaffee nicht genießbar. Beim nächsten Aufenthalt in Falmouth würden wir definitiv eine andere Unterkunft buchen.
- Sofie (6/5): -
- Antonia (7/5): Ok - Die Lage ist sehr schön in zweiter Lage zum Strand und der Weg zur Innenstadt mit 15 Minuten ok Ich war sehr gespannt auf die Unterkunft aufgrund der durchwachsenen Bewertungen. Leider muss ich sagen, dass ich die Unterkunft eher durchschnittlich fand und die aktuelle Bewertung von 8,4 für mein empfinden zu hoch ist. Das Zimmer an sich war ok, aber warum der Balkon nicht mehr hergerichtet wird ist für mich unverständlich, da es bei schönem Wetter sonst sehr schön wäre darauf zu sitzen. Das Zimmer wurde bei 3 Übernachtungen nicht geputzt, keine Betten gemacht oder Gläser gewechselt. Das Frühstück war eher schlecht und der Kaffee ungenießbar. Man kann vorab aus verschiedenen Varianten wählen. Kontinentales Frühstück besteht allerdings aus Croissant mit Marmelade und es gibt keinen Wurst oder Käseaufschnitt oder Ähnliches.
- Amanda (10/5): -
- Simon (6/5): Fine - Good location, friendly staff Broadly fine, but perhaps needs smartening up?
- gertrud (7/5): -
- tony (8/5): -
- Kirsten (5/5): - Staff is very friendly and helpful, beds are comfortable, location is fine for train travel Smell in the hallway is very off-putting, like old grease. Place has not been updated or renovated for a long time. Carpet is stained, stains from previous water damage in bathroom and room. Just very dated.
- Bettina (8/5): Zimmer mit Meerblick - Es gibt öffentliche Parkplätze direkt vor der Haustür.
Unser Zimmer hatte einen Balkon und Blick auf das Meer.
Beim Frühstück kann man auswählen, ob man Continental oder English Breakfast haben möchte.
Das Bett war breit und bequem. Die Treppen sind mit Gepäck etwas eng.
- Michael (9/5): -
- sarah (10/5): - Lovely guest house, had a lovely room, the breakfast was great and staff friendly,
- Catherine (7/5): Value for money - Location Beds uncomfortable, room slightly dusty.
- Weronika (10/5): I'll miss you Poltair! - I found everything I expected here. I'm very glad I chose Poltair for my stay in Falmouth. The service is very friendly and professional. The food is delicious, and the room is comfortable and clean. It's very close to the beach, where you can also enjoy a good coffee and a meal. Shops are a short walk away, and the town center is also close by.
- Alagarsamy (10/5): - Staff, location,breakfast was really good. Had a comfortable stay The toilet didn't have the mat to dry our legs.
- Steven Atkins (8/5): Good location close to seafront and not far from Falmouth town train station - Clean and comfortable bed. Spacious bedroom with good storage facilities for clothes and hiking gear. Free tea and coffee with biscuits. Nice to have a fridge in the room as well. The place has a retro feel to it and the front of the property is well presented. Lovely garden with veranda/patio area. Excellent location close to the seafront within walking distance of the main train station. Some of the fixtures and furnishings could do with an upgrade/makeover in places. The shower room did not have a non slip bathmat in it. Also rusty screws poking out of the wall. Some of the decor looks tired and worn in places.
- Anne (10/5): - Nice place! Great location and very nice staff. Charming little garden area by front entrance. Wonderful place. The only thing I wished for would have been a small common area sitting room on the first floor.
- Neil (9/5): - Loved the breakfast the view was great, but then I used to live n the area . I've stayed here before too, so I knew what to expect. The toilet, having to leave the romm but then that was my choice but at my age getting up in the night is my problem.
- Phil (8/5): Poltair house stay - Nice and easy to get to. Friendly staff and good food. Nothing
- Craig (9/5): -
- DAVID (10/5): -
- Joshua (10/5): A wonderful guest house in a great location, I’ll stay again when I return. - Location, staff, facilities for price - all brilliant. Very little - the shower was a bit underpowered, but otherwise really all great.
- Jane (8/5): Good guest house - we had very windy weather ! - Easy to find - welcoming Quite a lot of steps
- Heike (9/5): - I was staying for 2 nights. I had a quiet room towards the back of the building. Slept well, good breakfast and I will gladly come again. Thank you!
- Paul Glyn (10/5): A very pleasant stay with helpful and friendly staff. - Very professional, clean, friendly and helpful. Lisa in the dining room was superb, she certainly had the routines weighed off to a ‘T’. Everything worked like clockwork.
- John Sockett (8/5): Falmouth beside the sea - Brilliant location to town and beach.
Nice room with small balcony and brilliant view
Staff were all very friendly and looked after us during our stay Breakfast was very limited and basic although we had enough to start the day.
Some of the decor needed touching up but was not a major issue and these comments would not stop us returning.
All in all the guest house suited us well.
- Guest (10/5): -
- Alia (10/5): Perfection - I was upgraded upon arrival which was lovely after a long journey and the facilities room and breakfast was all lovely N/A
- MURAT (10/5): -
- Nadia (9/5): - Excellent breakfast Bathroom windows should be double-glazed
- Andrew (9/5): Just a great place to be! - Stayed there before knew the people are friendly, exceptionally helpful and an all round pleasure. The breakfast whatever was selected would benefit from better quality ingredients and appropriate cooking methods viz
Microwaved eggs are neither poached or scrambled;
Similarly cheap sliced bread warmed is not toast.
- Ermanno PEYRONE (6/5): Bene ma non benissimo - Staff molto gentile e disponibile - due poltrone in veranda consentono un buon relax La struttura è datata e si vede - si nota lo sforzo per renderla migliore ma il bagno era improponibile e la moquette ovunque (per carità in UK è ancora molto diffusa) non rende proprio giustizia ad una pulizia eccelsa...il prezzo dovrebbe essere inferiore in rapporto alla qualità percepita ed offerta - duecento euro sono veramente troppi , nono vale - mi spiace - la posizione è in un quartiere lontano dal centro quindi occorre auto. Per il posteggio bisogna avere fortuna di trovarlo in strada nei pressi... altrimenti si scarpina. Con un prezzo minore sarebbe stato un buono ..non di più .
- Caroline (7/5): -
- Rachel (10/5): - Kind upgrade and very conscientious owners. Incredible location and parking and scrambled egg!
- Maria (10/5): -
- Andrew (8/5): - Excellent location, street parking was easy and plentiful. The room was clean and pleasant and breakfast was great. The hot water pressure was low, meaning that the shower took a very long time to warm up and was slow-flowing. Decor was a little tired in places.
- Stephanie (9/5): Happy stay - Staff were lovely, breakfast was good, parking was easy, and the location was perfect. I got an unexpected upgrade, which i thought was really kind. Decor was a little worn, but I prefer somewhere that's lived in and feels homely, so it suited me well. I would stay there again. There was nothing that I didn't like.
- John (9/5): - Quaint property on the quieter side of town. Very helpful staff Room was on smaller side
- Ross (10/5): A great stay. - Easy to find and I was upgraded from a single room to a double. Fantastic breakfast included with the room.
- Alexis (10/5): -
- Ergin (9/5): -
- John (9/5): - Good location Parking tight
- Sadie (8/5): Would definitely stay here again - The room and facilities and staff were excellent
- Martin (10/5): One night…very good - Great breakfast All v good
- Vipin (9/5): -
- Val (10/5): Loved our stay! Very relaxing! Much needed break! Hills helped by Abacas Taxi ! - Room, breakfast and sea view outstanding! Staff wonderful! Relaxing environment. Beautiful Victorian building and garden.
Plan to return! Nothing!
- Sara (10/5): Lovely stay 💕 - Very friendly, warm, clean and relaxing! My room was also upgraded without asking and I had a lovely suprise balcony. Nothing
- Lou (8/5): Great location, lovely breakfast - Poltair gave me everything I needed - I will be back!! - I booked a single room as travelling alone and was happily surprised and pleased to find I had been given a lovely double room with sea view when I opened to room door. This was much appreciated and unexpected! The location is perfect for exploring Falmouth. Gylly beach is just around the corner, Falmouth town is 15 mins walk in the other direction and Pendennis Castle on the headland and worth a visit. The lady who served the breakfasts (I am sorry that I dont know her name) was really friendly and attentive. Parking is on the street outside and when I went in March there were spaces each time I needed to park. There was nothing I didnt like and it was value for money. I think it could do with a lick of paint in some communal areas but this is in no way a complaint as I am very grateful for the kind upgrade!
- edward (7/5): Great location, clean, friendly staff - excellent value 👍🏼 - Lovely greeting, upgraded my room, big room comfy bed, sea view, good wifi. Not much - great value for the location and friendly staff. Only negative comment would be the decor is a little bit tired but for the value and location it made up for it.
- Aadil (9/5): Perfect in every way. Lovely staff, facilities and the perfect location for the work I had to do in Falmouth. - Its location, comfort, staff and food were all excellent during my stay. Nothing
- tomasz (6/5): good location, cheap , food ok, just room let it down - Breakfast was decent for what was offered no complaints on that Room was terrible. "Puffin Room" toilet was not in room and had to be accessed by key in corridor and door barely opened half way to get access to loo. My room had three rooms sharing balcony outside my window people smoking and chatting and curtain did not close properly so no privacy. Hotel was clean have to say that and staff friendly but room not good but it was cheap. Also no sitting area inside apart from breakfast time.
- RICHARD (9/5): -
- Gary (9/5): Excellent - Just lovely staff. Smelt great - the hotel not the staff ! :) Everything was great
- Paul (9/5): -
- Graham (9/5): - The second time here, and very nice it is too, looking forward to same thing again next year Very old building and now looking a bit sad , ie cleaning old showers ect
- Adam (8/5): -
- Matt (8/5): Comfy bed, great breakfast, dodgy shower. Good value. - Comfy bed and great breakfast. Bad shower.
- Paul (6/5): OK but not great - Location is great. I was given a double when I booked a single. This meant I didn't get the sea view I had booked. The room fridge wasn't working so it contained horrible curled milk. The TV was tiny.
- Karine (7/5): - I found public hair when moved around things around the sink
- steven (7/5): -
- jeremy (7/5): Good stay for that budget - Convenient and cheerful staff Nothing
- Daniel (10/5): -
- stephen (10/5): -
- Grace (10/5): Perfect for a weekend by the sea! - Location was great, staff were lovely, the price was well within our budget and the property had lots of parking close by. Sea views while enjoying a continental breakfast in our room was perfect. Our room was a little dated and would benefit from being decorated, however for a short stay this wasn’t really an issue.
- Sheena (9/5): A nice place and good value - Clean and comfortable and in a very good location N/a
- Nicolas (10/5): Great overnight stay with a good breakfast - Very clean
- Joseph (7/5): - The room was nice and the location was ideal. Breakfast was good and the room was clean. I could hear the family in my room and the window didn’t shut properly. The room felt somewhat tired but was still very comfortable. The extractor fan in the bathroom took a while to turn off, which was particularly annoying at night
- Eve (8/5): Sea views , Great location , friendly host and yummy breakfast - Great location , sea views , friendly host always happy to help , lovely property, comfortable bed , great nights sleep
Super yummy breakfast Shower could do with an update
- max (10/5): -
- Kelvin (10/5): Very comfortable room with a Lush breakfast. - The breakfast was lush, hot and tasty and plentyful. The staff were helpful and polite. The upgrade in room was very much appreciated. The room was spotless. Tea and coffee making facility with biscuits and water on arrival was a nice touch. Could not fault my stay.
- Ash (10/5): - Such a beautiful Guest House in an incredible location. I stayed in the Sandpiper room, and can't praise it enough. The view from the room is incredible, and is super relaxing to watch the waves from.
- Ian (8/5): A quiet comfortable reasonably priced stay, walking distance from the station and beach. - Room was better than I expected as I was given a twin, although I'd only booked a single. The breakfast was freshly cooked and there was also cereal and fruit available, also better than expected.
- garner (10/5): 1010 - very stay feel wellcome here good staff very clean good breakfast very helpfull look after me leaning disting very support here very good stay

- Franco (10/5): Totally recommend! Next time I’m in the areas, I’m staying again. - Super nice and clean throughout.
The lady at reception was very kind and upgraded me to a bigger room with sea view without me requesting it. Also, let me have breakfast a little earlier than their kitchen opening time as I had to leave for work. Nothing
- garner (10/5): good - very good staff feel wellcome here very good

- Hoyle (10/5): -
- COLIN (10/5): Short visit to Falmouth. - Great place to stay it had all I needed. Nothing to report.
- Michele (10/5): Quiet and convenient location for a relaxing stay. - Really appreciate the hospitality to upgrade me to a room with a view of the ocean. Thankful to have a few sunny days in January to take in the view and benefit from going walking along the coast and up to Pendennis Point. The breakfast room was cozy and lots of delicious offerings on the menu. Everything was wonderful and I enjoyed my stay.

- Rachel (3/5): Disappointing - Staff friendly enough and good location It was not clean enough and we got bed bugs from one of the beds in our room and have had to throw clothes and bags away and do everything we can to make sure we don’t take them home .
Plus there was a permanent smell of a takeaway in the house
- hannah (10/5): Very easy going and calm environment with cute and cosy decor. - The room was really cosy and nicely decorated Only things I could complain about (which is basically nitpicky) is the tea selection. Prefer different tea brands but thats just personal preference
- Layla (9/5): - Friendly staff members and great breakfast N/A
- David (8/5): Really good -
- Melanie (10/5): Loved it and will definitely be coming back and would recommend to everyone. - My stay at Poltair Guest House was absolutely amazing — the Beachcomber room had a balcony with a beautiful view, the location was perfect being so close to the beach, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, the bed was comfortable, the breakfast was delicious, and I would definitely recommend it and stay there again. There was nothing I did not like it was all amazing
