3.0 / 10.0

Double room with sea view. The bed was very comfortable. The furniture was flat pack type and mismatched, and not spotlessly clean. Please be aware when booking that it is sold with 'free breakfast' which is not the case. We were advised on check in to take breakfast at a nearby cafe at £12.50ph for a cooked english plus the price for tea or coffee so you need to factor this in to your budget. The proprietor did offer us porridge or a croissant "as a gesture of goodwill'", but we really needed a better start to the day as we were staying there to walk the SW coast path. When we checked out we asked whether she might consider a little discount to offset the cost of our breakfasts that we had to eat out and again "as a gesture of goodwill on this occasion" we were given £20 discount but told in no uncertain terms that "it didnt sit well with her". But she doesnt have to worry as we wouldnt hurry back there anyway. The dog is lovely though, very friendly. Parking is free piblic parking outside the accomodation and is first come first served.

4.0 / 10.0

Lovely place to stay. Clean, tidy and perfect location. Just wish we had been told they were no longer providing breakfast, as when we booked breakfast was included and that is why we pick certain places.

Quirky room that was clean but awkward to use. I couldn't stand up straight to shave! Sloping ceiling over bed. Expensive for one night without breakfast.

3.0 / 10.0

The Stanley was as described on the tin, albeit we had booked our stay to include breakfast, but the establishment had discontinued breakfast two weeks before our stay, I feel short changed because we believed that breakfast had been included within the package price originally described,

We had a wonderful stay with a beautiful room. The breakfasts were delicious and we were made so welcome. The Stanley is right across the road from the promenade/beach and convenient to town. Would stay here again!

10.0 / 10.0

We have stayed at the Stanley numerius timed. The owner is lovely and nothing too much trouble for her especially if you are staying over to catch an early boat or returning late from one. The rooms are pretty, comfortable and the breakfast delicious. Will be booking for next year.

5.0 / 10.0

Kate greeted us in a very friendly, professional & informative manner. She went above & beyond with the little touches. Hotel was lovely & comfortable with all amenities provided. Breakfast absolutely delicious & served by Kate who was the most amazing hostess. Thank you for a lovely stay.

10.0 / 10.0

Very nice place to stay.

4.0 / 10.0

Paid for a suite but just had a basic room with a double and single bed in the room so unable to work as I assumed a suite had a desk and sofa normally in a separate room or partition. If you’re on holiday this might be an ok place to stay but no good for working visit.

6.0 / 10.0

Great location near the water and a fifteen minute walk to town center, train and bus station. However, we were put in a a very small room that was not at all what was pictured from what was posted on Expedia website. Our room was in an attic (only window was an attic window ) and we had to climb several flights of narrow stairs to get up there. Anyone with a walking mobility or a lot of luggage would not be able to get up there. The beds were comfortable and there was enough hot water for hot showers. This lodging includes a full English breakfast in the dining room with a view of water which was nice. Staying here for one or two nights is fine as long as you plan to spend very little time in the room.

Had to phone to get the door answered; parking unavailable and hair in food and bed

10.0 / 10.0

Good

4.0 / 10.0

In the end a nice stay, but only because another room was available. We'd booked a "comfort double room with sea view" but it was a tiny attic and unsuitable for even a 5ft 8 and 5ft 7 couple. Should be advertised as an attic room.

10.0 / 10.0

Cute little place on the harbor front.

2.0 / 10.0

The manager was utterly lacking in interpersonal skills. The room was tiny, and it lacked any normal embellishments. We wouldn't stay there again.

8.0 / 10.0

Really nice simple hotel, very convenient for the IOS ferry which is just around the corner. The staff were really nice, the room was cosy but comfortable and the breakfast was nice with a beautiful view. Parking is in short supply.

6.0 / 10.0

The breakfast was amazing, I had a full English and a friend had fresh fruit and croissant, either is enough to last the whole day and happily served in time for us to catch the ferry to the Scilly Isles. We found our attic room very tiny with a bed so small neither of us slept well at all, definitely a room to avoid. The owner was very cheery and welcoming.

6.0 / 10.0

Friendly place with an excellent breakfast. Very narrow, twisty stairs to top floor meant it was almost impossible to navigate with my carry-on suitcase. Not for older people who cannot manhandle their luggage! Lovely location right on the promenade. Overall good value.

4.0 / 10.0

Excellent location right on the seafront and within easy reach of local restaurants and the town centre. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming and the breakfast was excellent with wide choice of foods on offer. Parking on the seafront was easy but there is also a pay and display car park nearby. When next in Penzance will stay here again.

The Stanley has a really great location and represents excellent value for money. It's quiet and right by the sea front with excellent access to all the Cornish attractions. Top rating for our short family Easter holiday. Tasty filling breakfast, helpful welcoming folk

5.0 / 10.0

The stay was amazing. The location could not be better. Lovely staff and breakfast too.

3.0 / 10.0

Good location, not very clean in general room was ok, no tea or coffee facilities, shower was cold in the morning but was given a discount by the owner.

3.0 / 10.0

Positive- it was near the Scillonian and round the corner from the car park we had booked. Breakfast was good. I realise it is an old property but there was a lot of walking about, from the room above, which kept us awake a lot of the night. Cate had to be taken when using the toilet as the stairs went above making the headroom very low.

4.0 / 10.0

Excellent position particularly if you wished to use public transport. Friendly staff

3.0 / 10.0

Very nice place. Just note that it can be very loud as others return and go up the stairs. This place has charm but I did not get the best nights sleep due to the noise.

3.0 / 10.0

Very small room, but clean and served a purpose for one night stay.
