“Harbour Hotel Padstow impresses with its sparkling, newly renovated décor near the harbor and Rick Stein's restaurants, perfect for couples or families seeking culinary adventures; the staff's friendliness is noteworthy. I found the limited parking and sometimes haphazard housekeeping slightly detract from its potential, though the estuary view rooms offer undeniably stunning vistas.”

The location was GREAT, just a short walk to the water and the village center.
The room was very noisy. It was under the restaurant, so there was constant banging and scraping of tables and chairs. Heavy footsteps and rolling trolleys went on late and started again early, resulting in poor sleep.
