Small, badly designed rooms with very dated decor and cheap furniture and fittings. Bathrooms so small that the basin is in the bedroom. Mouldy shower mats and mould round the edges of the shower. No hot water from the basin tap. Stained carpets. Broken heater. Poor quality breakfast. Tatty communal areas. Litter, dirt and leaves on the terraces. Arrogant, incompetant... more

Fantastic position overlooking St Ives Harbour, small conveniently located Hotel with a fabulous Roof Terrace overlooking the bay. Friendly staff and the suite is very nice could do with being a bit bigger but we managed! Bath is in the bedroom with spectacular ocean views, need to be a bit careful if you leave the curtains open when getting out... more

Once again Pedn Olva reaches the parts that other hotels just cannot reach. The location is fantastic, set on a cliff looking down onto Westminster beach and on the other side the quaint harbour village of St Ives. Food was good, atmosphere soparific (relaxing), the staff were efficient and attentive. Rooms a bit small, but nicely decorated and comfortable nearly... more

Fantastic setting..not really advisable if you have walking problems. View beatiful especially if yoiu have good weather..we did not ..but still great.

Odd arrangment no window but door that tilted at top to allow fresh air in...summer could be a problem. We paid extra... more

Avoid if you're the kind of person who thinks a £140-a-night hotel should splash out on clean, new rooms and two-ply toilet paper. Otherwise, the views are superb, and the location is good. more

I went to St Ives on impulse with no luggage (apart from a daypack) on a Tuesday evening in December. The Pedn-Olva was the first hotel that I found on arriving at the station. The modest street frontage hides the comfortable surroundings inside. I had dinner, bed and breakfast there, and enjoyed it all. The food is excellent, and the... more

This hotel has stunning views over St Ives , an ideal spot for lunch but, make sure you are early and if you happen to arrive 5 minutes for the 2.00pm deadline and ask for lunch, you will be told NO. Very unfriendly, unhelpful and their clocks are all too fast - or they can't read the time. more

Just returned from St. Ives and must say that we had a fantastic time apart from the problems with the solid floors. We had the de-luxe "Captains Cabin" above which was the bar/restaurant area which has solid floors so each time someone walked across the floor we could very clearly hear it in our room. Monday afternoon/early evening we were... more
