We recently had two reasons for dining at the Hotel Bristol Newquay, during April and May and on both occasions a varied and excellant menu was presented. The first was a group luncheon, the second was a family occasion and on each visit the food and service by all staff was 1st class, well presented and enjoyed. Your chef, the... More

Have dined at the Hotel Bristol for many, many years, I must commend them for the quality of their food and eating experience. No school like the old school! Looking forward to the next one! More

We have visited this hotel for lunches and dinners for many years. The service is good and the staff friendly and helpful, but the hotel is now beginning to look tired and shabby. We had lunch last Sunday and it was not good. The roast lamb was rather tough, only two veg. served in addition to potatoes. Vegetable curry was... More

Dear mvale34, Thank you for taking the time to post a review. I am concerned that lunch did not meet your expectations. I am assured that the leg of Lamb was cooked slowly and fully rested before serving. We always serve British Legs of Lamb and work closely with our supplier to ensure consistency. Occasionally we can encounter tougher legs... More

We've just returned from a few days in Newquay. My wife and her family used to visit the hotel Bristol at least 30 years ago for summer family holidays. She wanted to relive her childhood memories so we re visited. The Bristol is a grand old building in a great Newquay location , opposite the lovely tolcarne beach and lose... More

We arrived as a party of 70 for three nights.IWe were pleasantly surprised that, though part of a chain, the hotel had character and had deiberately retained the art deco period style whilst providing all the modern requirements such as free wi-fi access in all rooms. The bedrooms were clean and well serviced by polite staff. Our particular room had... More

Thanks for taking the time to review your stay with us. We are members of the Best Western group but the hotel is still owned by my family - BW assists us with our marketing and benchmarking minimum standards. We hope you enjoyed your singing tour in Cornwall. More

70 of us stayed at the hotel last w/e. Excellent service from happy and efficient staff. The cooperation we received from the hotel in organising this trip was exemplary. Many have remarked positively on the high standard of food quality and presentation. We were all equally impressed by the pleasant atmoshere throughout our stay; nothing was too much for them....

We had such a wonderful experience at the Hotel Bristol. A little old fashioned perhaps but such a class act with great service and wonderful food with the menu changing daily. The location could not have been better, so convenient for the town and sitting above Tolcarne Beach, the safest family beach in Newquay apparently. We only stayed for the... More

The hotel is comfortable enough - as a solo business traveler it catered for my needs adequately however I would agree with some of the other review mentioning it's slightly dated. Room service menu in the room was quite limited but someone mentioned you could actually order from the restaurant menu too I think? Breakfast was good although would be... More

Thank you for review. We do start breakfast at 7.15a.m. and found that it is early enough for most guests. Our night porter is always available to serve a continental breakfast much earlier. We will certainly consider moving the time if guests advise us. In the past we have served breakfast earlier for events such as the Royal Cornwall Show.... More
