The location is amazing. The sea view is stunning. We had a walk up to the castle that is very close by. Unfortunately it was closed, but we walked around the moat and the views were amazing. Best of both worlds with the lovely countryside and sea views. Well within walking distance to the town centre too.

The weather, but it's the UK. Didn't stop us getting out walking.

The hotel is immaculately clean everywhere. The staff were very smartly dressed, polite and couldn’t do enough for you. The bed was very comfortable and the breakfast was excellent with a good variety of options. The room tea and coffee making facilities were brilliant and used great produce. Clean fluffy towels changed daily, robes and slippers were a nice feature. Love that you can use dry robes free of charge for the beach. Great touch. Great location, lovely views and loads of parking! Very good quality sun loungers outside. The pool and spa area is a good size and again very clean! Location is excellent for eating out and accessing Falmouth centre.

We knew we had booked “land view” but didn’t quite expect to have a bin view.

Food was delicious, hotel lovely and clean. Room was perfect size and value for money. Loved the option of having a coffee machine in the room. Excellent relaxed environment. Staff very friendly and welcoming.

The spa facilities were lacking. Sauna wasn’t very hot. The pool area looked smaller than in photos we had seen online. Not enough option for spa options. Kids were also in the pool area throwing balls with their family so we didn’t have full access to be able to swim in the pool properly. Dinner booked in the evening was of good quality but overpriced for what the food dish actually was.

We had a very clean and comfortable room. The evening meal was fabulous, everything was cooked to perfection. The breakfast was amazing, it's so refreshing to have a large selection of fruit salads, dried fruits, and nuts. There was a great selection of cooked breakfasts, although I stuck to the smoked salmon and scrambled egg as it was so delicious.

For the tea and coffee making facilities, I would prefer to have mugs instead of a cup and saucer. The lounge staff were very friendly, but it was sometimes difficult to get someone's attention.

Loved everything about this hotel, fabulous location and views, exceptional food, all staff were very friendly and could not do enough for you. Very very clean. Pool facilities great open from 7am until 9pm. Outside terrace spacious overlooking the sea, nice relaxed holiday. Cannot fault anything with this stay, definitely will stay again. Would like to try other Brends Hotels too. Thank you.

Loved everything.

Every member of staff we encountered was really lovely. The hotel itself is very well-kept throughout and had stunning views from the terrace. Our room was decent-sized, we had bathrobes and slippers which is always a plus, and we even had a Nespresso machine in the room! The pool was nice and warm but small, probably a handful of people would feel crowded there, but when we used it we were alone so it was lovely, same for the sauna. Really appreciated the breakfast service and the fact that they had jams in glass jars and not plastic.

a bit stingy with the toiletries, only one small shower gel tube per room. The hot breakfast was quite small in size, 1 rasher of bacon, one egg etc (the traditional one). No problem for us as we left the table quite full, but could be a problem for someone with a bigger appetite. Neither of these things impacted our pleasant stay!

Staff extremely friendly at all times. Full English breakfast portion control was sensible. Single room size was ideal; not cramped and I found the wardrobe shelving layout particularly useful. As regards location, spectacular views are available from the hotel & grounds.

Room was over the kitchen: 1) There was a strong mechanical vibration (floor & bed) as I recuperated from a long car journey on arrival afternoon. Luckily, it was absent at all other times. 2) There were two or three startling bangs from kitchen staff filling waste bins in the rear yard. I felt this could have been done more quietly.

Excellent staff very professional lovely welcome at reception beautiful surroundings fabulous breakfast very comfortable nice spa and gym

Evening restaurant menu was the same all 4 nights could have done with a little tweak but food was very good

The staff were very professional polite and helpful, we upgraded our room without any hassle and so happy we did as the views from our room were amazing.

My parents were hoteliers of a 4 star 2 AA rosettes hotel, so I have a good idea of what to expect and The Royal Duchy more than meets expectations, what could of been better was my stay had been for longer.

Wonderful location, staff, facilities. Had a great stay there. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you

Constructive criticism- hanging light in room had some cobwebs. Edge of bath at the top of bath panel had some built up dirt. So just needs bit more of a thorough clean. Breakfast was good sort from dry mushroom and sausage on my full English.
