Lovely three night stay with my daughter. Very welcoming and attentive staff. Always said hello and asked if we needed anything as soon as they saw us. The room was well presented with a mini fridge as well as the usual tea&coffee. The bathroom was lovely and warm with a nice big shower (and separate deep bath). Lovely fluffy towels and robes. It took a while to get the temperature right in the room (it was very warm) but we got there with a little play on the controller. The Chapel restaurant was also too warm for us so we had breakfast in our room on the 2nd & 3rd mornings. The selection and quality of food was excellent although the chef didn’t want to bend from the prescribed menu - pancakes came with berries. Bacon came as part of the cooked breakfast. We requested pancakes with bacon not berries. It took a bit of persuading but we got there. A really quiet stay, couldn’t hear any other guests at all through the thick walls. I enjoyed it so much I’m hoping to return with my husband and visit the museum as well next time

A room with no view - but thats OK!
Rooms are made up of 3 cells and retain just enough of the original infrastructure to remind you of their original purpose. No bad vibes and very comfortable. I would recommend.

Simply incredible!
My wife and I have just returned from a one night stay at this incredible venue! The setting is amazing, the attention to detail even more so, and it’s the cleanest place I’ve ever seen. The atmosphere is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced, and all of the staff were extremely courteous and professional throughout our time here. I love the whole concept of turning a huge piece of Bodmin history into something so modern and luxurious, whilst being able to visit the jail and learn about what it was like to be incarcerated there! Having the hotel room incorporated within 3 “cells” is quite simply genius, and the layout, space and amenities were second to none! A fabulous stay and would definitely recommend to anyone else!

Liked the property, breakfast excellent, evening dining limited & expensive. Missing opportunities for a captive audience by not offering casual food options in the evenings. Used cafe on arrival, it was dirty & a lazy bearded staff member doing nothing, dreadful food & coffee, a let down for a lovely hotel for a first impression.

A stunning property. One of the nicest hotels I’ve stayed in. Phenomenal. Unfortunately however the same cannot be said for the dinner and some of the staff. Dinner over priced and poor, when my wife asked for something extra at breakfast the manager laughed in her face. I was also bashed out of the way by a staff member clearly walking around with the hump. A shame as this hotel can be extraordinary. They would do far better with a wholesome menu as I suspect staffing may be a challenge due to location. It is however a really really nice hotel. Just eat dinner elsewhere.
