We booked for one night at this hotel. Although the hotel had vacancies we were given the worst room in hotel. At the back overlooking filthy pipes and blood all over the valance on the bed. Asked to be moved and got a room overlooking the sea but still very grubby. This room had been given the most basic of... more

I found the experience realy good especially all the staff, they could not do enough always there to help if needed. The view form our room was good and the hotel was very clean, food realy nice maybe could have added a few more things to menu, but loved the muscles! Thankyou for making our first stay in Newquay so... more

I couldn't recommend staying at this hotel due to the carbon monoxide leak which occurred during our stay, resulting in the evacuation of all guests. Having been out on the 2nd evening of our stay we returned to the hotel at 1am to be greeted by the Police, Fire and Resue Service, Paramedics and hotel and brewery staff (the hotel... more

Just returned from a weekend in Cornwall. Booked this hotel as a walk in off the street as the hotel I'd booked in advance was a complete dive (not at all like it was advertised on the net) so ran out of that one and into the Great Western. I had been worried about booking the Great Western first because... more

This hotel was a little disappointing. The welcome and staff were great, and very helpful when we asked for anything, but the decor could definitely do with a update. Our bathroom did not have a shower, and the hot water came on intermittently. The location was fantastic, though -- just beside the sea, and just next door to Reef surf... more

The location was right in the centre of town..a couple minutes from the beach-great! The breakfast was good, always plenty to keep you going and the staff were very pleasent. The room was... more

Stayed at Great Western for one night. Positives were manager & staff were very helpful & The sea view was nice . Negatives were Parking is very limited , Hotel was old & creaky but is about to be renovated. Bathrooms need an upgrade. Basically the hotel was fine for one night but the worst part was the area. Newquay... more

Postivies ...Hotel has a great view over the beach and it is worth paying the £6 extra to upgrade to a sea view room. I can see how the ones at the front of the hotel would be noisy. Hotel is nearly all non smoking, fairly clean, rooms are a reasonable size , bathroom was clean and hot water always... more

The Hotel was generally run down and tatty. Our room overlooked the main road and we were kept awake by the loud drunken behaviour of people on the main road until the early hours of the morning. This was made worse by the Hotel floodlights shining into the room until 2 am. more
