The main thing that made our stay a good experience was the staff, they were doing a good job. and made time to stop and chat. they realy look after the hotel and the guests who come to stay giving a good impression.they explained about the hotels past history that it was founded by the owners who built the cross country railway. It made our stay all the more interesting.thanks to the good people in newquay cornwall. and staff in the great western hotel.

Very close to the beach with great sea views. Unfortunately the lift was not working and the hotel was waiting to have the lift repaired, the hotel was very apologetic and this was understandably out of their control.
