I only stayed the one night in which I had booked a single room. Expecting the broom cupboard I was amazed to have a double room over looking the sea. It was quite lovely. Booking in and out couldn't have been easier and the staff very helpful

Yes, it is a bit basic, and the rooms really do need a re-furb, but the sea-view rooms at the front of the hotel offer unequalled views across Mounts Bay. If you stay at the Lugger you won't be in the lap of luxury, but, if you have a sea-view room, you'll have astonishingly beautiful views across the Bay, friendly... More

We have dined at The Lugger many times - they have a wonderful carvery - but had never stayed there before. We pre-booked a large room at the front of the hotel for three nights. On arrival we walked through the open front doors to be hauled back by an officious woman sitting behind a sliding screen just outside the... More

We've been before -no problem, but we booked a table for four for the carvery, only to find out when we got there that we would be paying £35 per person for the meal and entertainment - nothing was said on the...

Stayed for 2 nights - walk in with no reservation. Chosen on location/price having had a look at a number of hotels along the same road. Asked for twin and given a largish room with 1 double and 3 single beds. No headboards. Little else in the room apart from a small wardrobe and a small side table with the... More

I was booked into this hotel for the purposes of a work stay, as so a basic room was reserved for me. Easy enough to find, The Lugger Hotel has an adequate car park and is situated along the promenade in Penzance; the setting is gorgeous and location couldn't be better. Just a few minutes walk to the high street... More

This hotel is right on the seafront in Penzance. We had a very large room at the front with big windows overlooking the promenade. There was a table and two armchairs in the bay window which was great for sitting and watching the world go by. The receptionist was very friendly. The breakfast was quite good although my husband found... More

For £75 p/night it was disappointing. Room was big but draughty. Shower was in bedroom behind a grubby curtain & whenever anyone flushed a loo the water system groaned throughout the floor. The noise from the pub was either music from the function room or the kitchen extractor fan. Felt like being in student digs

Stayed here for one night before heading to Scilly. Very anxious having read the reviews after booking but had a very pleasant stay. Some of the communal areas do look a bit tired but our room was large and very clean, and beds very comfortable. Shower wasn't great but that didn't really matter for our one night stay. Plenty of...
