We had a warm welcome from hosts Ally and Mike and their assistants Elvis (canine co ordinator) and Mandy (Feline admin) ....Holbein is a beautifully presented Victorian House ... absolutely pristine . Our room was compact but perfectly comfortable with attached shower room.
Breakfast is around a large communal table with a wide range of options perfectly prepared by Ally ... Mike acts as an attentive and entertaining go between and host.
Mike is knowledgeable about Penzance and beyond. We took a boat trip with Coastal Tours at his recommendation which absolutely 'made' the weekend!
Thanks to all four of you for making our stay so perfect. We hope to see you again soon!!

Glad we got tickets for the Minack Theatre and explored the Gobal Telecommunications Museum, took the Coaster bus several tiimes, including to Land's End and walked the Coastal path to Sennen. Enjoyed the Penlee art gallery, especially in the midst of reading "Summer in February." Enjoyed a meal at the oldest pub, and at the Longboat Inn. The staff at the Info Centre were the best - gave us so many tips and set us on the right buses.

i like walking on the promenade, along to Newlyn, took the Mounts Bay coast path to Marazion, took the bus to Trengwainton gardens- lovely to see the magnolias, rhododendrons and camellias - interesting walks round the gardens and a lovely cafe with friendly staff and good food.
Visited Trewidden gardens by bus and also took the train to St. Ives- a lovely scenic run along the coast.
Penzance town has a nice selection of shops and it is worth exploring the back streets and the area round Chapel street. On previous visits have been to the Morrab gardens and other parks. Penzance is easy to walk round, has a good bus service and the tourist information staff are very knowledgable and helpful.

Went in the end of February, it was a quiet time with everything closing by 10pm, and last buses leaving early, but it's just as lovely if not more so as any other time of the year could be. Even for hiking, if you get ready for the wind, the rain, the fog, the mud and the cold.

We came in February so not very busy.
We came in February so not very busy. Many places to walk around, lovely garden in the center of town. Great beach, St Michael's Mount very close by. St Ives also not far away. Great place as a bae to see Cornwall.
Must say that the hotel location was convenient.
It was a 15 -20 mins walk to Penzance station and 5 mins to the promenade.
Liz was very sweet and had offered us rooms as soon as they were ready even before the checkin time.
She also did accommodate our request to store the birthday cake and allow us to use the breakfast room for the birthday cake cutting :)
She was kind enough to guideand explain us about all the nearby options to eat and for places to visit
Breakfast was good and filling
Overall lovely stay for the price paid !!!
A five star stay with Ali and Mike and Elvis the dog . They were gracious hosts, the room was excellent in decor size cleanliness. I can’t remember ever having a better stay, both myself and Steph my wife would like to thank our hosts for a great stay and a much needed break. We would like to congratulate them on
achieving the no.1 slot of all the guest houses in the Penzance area for quality and value - a well deserved accolade for all their hard work. Can recommend Holbein House to everyone thinking of staying - five stars ! ***** 😀
Very close to the excellent Praa sands beach. A modern and comfortable flat, fully equipped with everything needed for self-catering. Even some games in the living room cupboard. Very clean, and a very friendly and prompt service.
Excellent location close to the beach, and in easy driving distance to supermarkets, to Penzance, the Penwith peninsula and to Porthleven. You can start walking the coast path straight from where you are towards Porthleven. To be warmly recommended. We had a great time!
Very clean, comfortable, well equipped holiday home in a lovely quiet village location. Just a few minutes drive to Penzance and with easy access to all area of West Cornwall. Kind and helpful hosts who live in adjacent property, always available for help and advice, but respectful of the privacy of their guests. Dedicated parking area with access to an electric socket for charging an electric car (for which I paid a very fair additional cost for the electricity consumed). Highly recommended.
I have stayed at the Longboat several times at this time of year and always enjoyed being there. A great team running this place. Nice rooms and nice breakfasts. Superbly located for Penzance railway station, bus station and Penzance itself. Appreciate the low key approach to New Year’s Eve. Could not recommend the Longboat more highly for an enjoyable stay in West Cornwall, with such an excellent location to explore much that this area has to offer.
The continent breakfast which was included was very sparse only one waiter on who did his best but every thing ran out , the bathroom flooded every time you had a shower, the room was big and bed comfortable, the tv was very hard to work out, why can’t you just press 1/2/3 as it used to be ? The view was very good but it was up a very steep hill to get to the hotel which when you walk there from the train station with luggage it is quite hard
The best hotel we have stayed in during our visit to England and Wales. Ideal location near town centre. Very comfortable room with temperature and bedding suited to the climate at the time (Sep). Self-service breakfast in fully equipped kitchen was all that we asked for, yet gave others wide scope to suit themselves. Staff gave us a friendly reception, helped with our luggage, and guided us to the places we wanted to go in Penzance.
Shocked and horrified to be told the day before we were to travel that the Queens Hotel's resaurant was closed. If we had known we would have gone elsewhere. As my husband is disabled and other local restaurants were closed this caused us the greatest upset and inconvenience. The point of our short break was to be served good hot food in pleasant surroundings.
Mike and Julie were excellent hosts. The Breakfast was absolutely delicious... we had a cooked 'Cornish' every morning. You also got fresh fruit, cereal, fruit juice and toast. It was by far the best B&B/hotel in Penzance. Very well maintained. Spotlessly clean. Sea view. Free parking. We would recommend Warwick House highly to anyone looking to stay there.
This is an apartment that is located near the
bus/train station so access to same is
terrific. The bedroom is large, the bed comfortable and the kitchen is user friendly. We had easy and quick access to the owner on some questions and ours were answered within 15 minutes. Overall… Penzance is a great place to visit and I would certainly book this again.
We stayed here as a stop before going over to Marazion.
The view was great. We also had a fabulous dessert that evening. We also asked for a room change due to stairs, and they accommodated us immediately and helped with luggage. This is a typical, old European hotel, but was clean and met our needs.
Very cosy house. The owner thought of everything, the house has all you need for the holiday with family or friends, plus it’s pet friendly.
This was our third time in Penzance, but first tending a cottage instead of hotel, and we will stick with cottage offers from now on :).
Strongly recommend!
Nice boutique hotel with smiling staff and great food. Actually this was the first hotel that freshed up our room when the tag was out on the doorhandle. The bathtube was a bonus and good wifi made our stay just perfect. Definitely visit the Thai Moon restaurant next door as well.
Our hosts were exceptionally, nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast was superb, with a lot of variety. The room was perfect. The location was just right to access Penzance with parking right outside the property. Would definitely recommend and we will visit again.
Top location in trendy Newlyn - within walking distance from the center of Penzance. The inn itself is very clean and cozy & staff is super friendly and helpful. Also - the breakfast was delicious!
Our room was very clean, comfortable and quiet. The property was within close walking distance to everything we needed in Penzance. We appreciated the warm welcome and fabulous breakfast!
