We are walking around England and had booked to stay at this pub just after New Year in January 2025. It was a freezing day that we walked to Portreath and we took the inland route via Tehidy Country Park and down into the valley to find the pub. It's a pleasant Victorian building and our very large room had two windows, one of which must have faced the sea before the houses were built around the old port in the last 50 years. The room was really spacious, high ceilinged, with lovely original panelling on one wall, and a large modern bathroom. The heating was amazing, almost too warm on a freezing day, and soundproofing excellent, despite being above the bar. We ate in the pub on both nights and had lunch another day, all excellent. Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and like most pubs in Cornwall, the bar was friendly and welcomingl. The town isn't pretty but has an impressive and slightly wild feeling beach. We'll aim to stay here again.

We loved it.

This place was one of many we stayed at during our trip in Cornwall, but for sure - was the best one! The human factor - was a game changer. I was unfortunate my car window was stuck inside the rear door in open position in a rainy day after the hike, I covered it temporarily using a plastic bag but I was fortunate I booked this amazing hotel. Martin is a Legend! I can't express how grateful I am, he found a proper cover for the whole car, agreed with a manager to leave the car for a night in a facility next to the hotel for safety and my peace of mind, he was patiently waiting in the rain while I was unloading the luggage and covered the call with proper protection attached to the rims from any rain/wind. Martin, thank you sooo much! That means a lot and you made more then anyone would expect. 100+ stars to you mate. Big thanks! Room was great and not to forget about the best breakfast I had in my life. Cornish breakfast was amasing! To sum up - my expectations exceeded, becouse of the people like Martin!

arrived from the coast path soaking wet and were greeted by very helpful staff who provided trays for us to deposit wet clothing and gear into which was rapidly whisked off to the drying room (brilliant for a happy departure the following day). Room was as described, very warm...the pub and restaurant were busy all evening, lovely to see it full of local people. Great quality food and the staff were attentive and fun. Lots to choose from at breakfast. Would highly recommend if you are doing the SW coast path or just want to stay in Portreath.

Great central location and lovely well equipped rooms. Lovely toiletries (in refillable bottles) and a flask of fresh milk for the tea/coffee tray. My son and I were travelling with our dog and she could not have been made more welcome. My room was supplied with a lovely dog bed, towel, dog bowls and treats for her. The staff were exceptional and accommodated our uncertain check in time (due to the turbulent IOS ferry crossing) to ensure we had a hot meal upon our late and wet arrival. Food was excellent and we had a brilliant choice for breakfast, can recommend the smoked salmon, scrambled egg and avocado on sourdough toast. My son thoroughly enjoyed his full Cornish too. The beach was just a few minutes walk away and we loved watching the surfers making the most of the huge waves. If you want to feel welcome, be looked after and enjoy good food I can recommend the Portreath Arms.

On the way up to the room there was a little station which had a fridge with bottles of water and milk for free, slippers plus a list of all the extra items you may need but may have forgotton. Room was well stocked, clean and very comfortable. We ate in the restaurant for dinner - which was excellent. Probably some of the best desserts we'd tasted. Breakfast was also very good. Staff were all super friendly.

Staff were great in bar and restaurant The dinner was delicious Location good for walks and beach Nice atmosphere in the bar with the rugby in the afternoon and a singer in the evening Nice touch with towel cushion and treats for the dog

Room was on the top floor with narrow staircase so not easy to navigate with bags and the dog It was also quite a small room if you had a dog with you- fine for one night with a small dog but if you had more luggage and a big dog space would have been tight

Great spot close to the beautiful beach with plenty of parking to boot. Bar and Restaurant facilities are excellent, with a wide selection of choices to suit all tastes. We also brought our two dogs with us and they were greeted with their own beds and, doggy bags and towels. The breakfast was delicious and the staff could not have been more helpful. We would definitely stay again!

Great location for walking the SWCP. We stayed 1 night and loved it here. Great room, very modern, comfortable bed & spotlessly clean. Powerful shower & shower gel etc provided. Tea, coffee, biscuits & hot chocolate available in the room. Dinner & breakfast were absolutely delicious 10/10. All staff were lovely & very welcoming too. I would definitely stay here again as it was fantastic!

The location of the hotel was superb, great places to have walks, local pubs and restaurants nearby (as well as inside the hotel), and near to the beach. The hotel was very nicely decorated which made it very welcoming and relaxing. It was also well looked after, everything was neat, tidy, and clean. The complimentary breakfast was very lovely. Most of all the staff were very helpful and friendly, they took the initiative to upgrade our room when the circumstances made it prudent, I forgot my personal keys in the room and they were kind enough to contact me and send them to my home, which I am very thankful for.

My room was larger and more stylish than I had expected - the photos don't do it justice. The bathroom was also nicely appointed and the shower was excellent. I stayed in 12 different places during my trip to Cornwall and I thought that the Portreath Arms had the best breakfast. The services was friendly and efficient and the food was of a very high quality. Overall I was very pleased with the accomodation and highly recommend.

There is a need for more lighting. The location of the window means that not much sunlight is able to enter the room but there aren't many lights. The rocking chair near the window looks stylish but it wasn't comfortable. I would have preferred a comfortable chair with a little table where I could sit and drink my tea - rather than the rocking chair and the telescope. Don't ask tired travellers to give you their credit cards if they have already paid for their room and breakfast. The check-in process should be as frictionless as possible. Tired travellers are wont to loose things.
