I rated the cleanliness of room as poor because there was an infestation of bluebottles. However staff were excellent in their response and quickly moved me to a good room. Also I required first aid for a sore foot and the service was again prompt and high standard - thanks layout of rooms and access was a bit confusing - perhaps need more signage indicating how to get from rooms to reception and back |

The surfing facilities (changing room and surfboard room) are the reason why we always stay in the Esplanade. Limited car park spaces. |

The sea view was amazing.Staff were very friendly and approachable. All in all good value for money. The bedrooms werent very sound proof. The room for breakfast was very busy, which I know is to be expected but this meant the tables were crammed together and our chairs kept getting knocked as people walked by to get food especially as we were placed right next to the toast making machine and cereal table..It made us feel uncomfortable eating with everyone stood literally on top of us watching. |

Being close to Fistral Beach, although the walk into town was either a long walk up hill or via a narrow track (across country) which collected large puddles. The hotel was tired and really requires a re-vamp. The price we paid for the room was way above what it was actually worth. The breakfast was a fairly low standard and the coffee cups were stained. The staff were surprised when we asked for clean ones! |

The excellent service from nj in the restaurant in the morning and the afternoon, breakfast was a great selection. That the dinner food in the restaurant was left standing for a long period, so quality not great. No secure lockers or proper changing facilities for the swimming pool. |

the location overall condition of the hotel was gruby. looked like it needed re-decorating. the window in our room was broken, the outdoor pool was very dirty as was the general pool area. The neighbours were very noisy and we didn't sleep well at all. I'd expect this of a lower priced hotel however considering the amount of money I paid I wont be returning unless the management address the above issues. |

I loved the views from the hotel and the seating area in the Lobby. The bar and restaurant were nice. There was an older barman who was very friendly. The bedrooms were very basic and doesn't reflect the standard of the lobby/bar area of the hotel. Breakfast and dinner times were too strict - when I turned up at 8.05pm for dinner I was told that they needed to check to see if Chef would still serve food - this is extremley early for a hotel - this was the same at breakfast on Monday I was there by 09.30 but I felt that I had to rush. |
