I recently stayed at the above and was more than impressed. The venue was well equipped, clean, warm, comfortable, licensed and the staff were exceptionally friendly. Many original features and within walking distance of the centre. However, I would suggest that a taxi back in the dark would be safer option. With regard to breakfast, if all you want is... More

There is a large lounge with tv, books and games (puzzles, board games etc) a small games room with pool and table football, good sized members... More

Impeccably clean, large, updated bunk rooms, very friendly staff, great food. Delightful place to stay during your adventures through Penzance and surrounding areas. If on foot, it's about 20 min walk from train station.

I had dinner on one evening which I felt was a little overpriced. My breakfast was better value. The bar/restaurant is airy and pleasant. The hostel was quiet at night and... More

It was very well decorated and the restaurant bar area was very nice. The family room was ok for the six of us (3 bunk beds) for 2 nights. There was a TV and games room... More

A warm welcome; very comfortable and so many things to see in the area. We felt very relaxed here and did not want to leave. The boys - 3 and 5 yrs - loved the table football and the self catering eating area.. We hope to go again same time next year. Anon

Having arrived fairly late I was greeted by the reception staff member who was very pleasant, helpful and explained what I needed to know including how I could get out early the next morning. The person who served me at the bar was also pleasant and friendly. An example of a good youth hostel, the only slight downside was the... More
