Like one other reviewer here, we stayed at this hotel after getting married at Tregenna Castle across the street. (Because while the grounds were stunning and our reception room was decent, the rooms at Tregenna weren't were I wanted to spend my wedding night.)

The Blue Hayes, on the other hand, was amazing. We had the Trelyon Suite with the balcony which was lovely, although we didn't have much time to enjoy it. The room was modern, very comfortable, and everything was ultra clean and new. The hotel itself is really interesting, with so few rooms on so many different levels it felt like you had your own floor, or even your own wing of the place.

The staff were friendly and really funny. Breakfast was fantastic and I wished I could have stayed there for at least one more night. The general feeling at breakfast when we spoke to the other guests is that they loved the place and booked a week or two every summer (which is why it gets booke up so fast.)

We loved it. At first glance it's very pricey but it's about the same as other places in St Ives and definitely better than anything else we've seen. So WELL worth the money.

We first went to this hotel back in August 2006 on a very miserable Wednesday (the only day available), our first impressions were wow.

The welcome received was like no other that we have ever experienced,
Malcolm (owner) made us feel like family.

After looking around we decided to hold our wedding weekend at this hotel, the atmosphere, surroundings and the friendliness of the team at Blue Hayes were just perfect. To be honest we were in love within
2 minutes of stepping through the door.

Our wedding weekend started on the 6th of October 2007, the ceremony was on 7th October 2007.

All 10 all of our family turned up at 3pm, there was no panic but plenty of organisation. Again we were all made to feel at home.

At 4pm we had home made cornish cream teas on the terrace, these were
the best we have ever had.

The day of the ceremony went beautifully, Malcolm and his team Elizabeth, Charlie and Sue (just to name a few) made sure that the whole day was organised, even down to the keepsakes and flowers on the tables.

The breakfast, buffet lunch and dinner were superb. The food was to die for, the only complaints from our guests were that everyone had eaten far too much.

The rooms are beautiful, luxurious, stylish and most importantly comfortable and clean with excellant veiws from each room.

If we were to award this hotel with a star rating there would not be enough stars in the universe.

Our wedding weekend was better that we could of ever wished/hoped for. This was thanks to the organisation and hard work of everyone at
the Blue Hayes Hotel.

We stayed for three nights in this small and friendly hotel and were impressed with the whole set up. The rooms were spacious and immaculately clean, the beds and pillows very comfortable. The staff were both very friendly and extremely helpful. Wonderful views from the rooms with a sea view and very comfortable and relaxing inside the hotel. Whilst we did not have dinner at the hotel, The Porthminster Beach Cafe is only a 10 min walk away ( fairly steep climb coming back!) which is difficult to fault. There is a great choice of food at breakfast at the hotel and we were impressed with the quality of the food and attention to detail. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble and we would have no hesitation in recommending this establishment.
A word of caution, it is quite hilly walking to and from the town centre but there is a very good taxi service.

Stayed at this hotel last weekend and had the most enjoyable time. Rooms are very comfortable, clean and spacious. Hotel has a beautiful view over looking the sea. Staff were so friendly and made the stay one of the best ever. Have already booked for next year. Thanks for a great stay, see you again next year.
