Why We Love This Hotel
- Polurrian on the Lizard was originally built in 1890 as a railway hotel. Past guests include Winston Churchill, and Hollywood stars Clark Gable and Gene Tierney.
- The hotel boasts an exceptional clifftop location with uninterrupted coastal views over Mount's Bay. The hotel's Vista Lounge has floor-to-ceiling windows. It's the perfect spot for admiring the rugged scenery.
- The Daily Telegraph calls it the "best hotel in the area" with a 10/10 location.
- The South West Coast Path is at the bottom of the hotel's manicured gardens. Strike out along this trail and explore the rugged coastline. The Lizard Peninsula served as a filming location for "Poldark". It's a must for keen hikers, with lots of pretty coves to discover.
- The Marconi Station World Heritage Site is 20 minutes' walk from the hotel. Along this route sits Polurrian Beach, a 5-minute walk from the hotel.
- Stuck for Christmas gift ideas? Give a dining, spa, activity, theatre, or hotel experience, and create a memory.

The location is amazing. We had a sea view room and woke up to the best view every morning. The room was quite spacious but a little dated. Good supply of refreshments. Comfortable bed. Request for extra pillows came very quickly from Joshua?? Ample free parking. Great coastal footpaths directly from hotel. We stayed out of season so little atmosphere. Food very good, drinks a little expensive.
Other Comments
We enjoyed our stay here but unfortunately the hotel is so short of staff. The staff, especially girls in the restaurant and lads in the bar are completely over stretched. We sat in the lounge one day and a crowd of ladies came in and waited for ages at the bar without any acknowledgement, they almost left. I went to reception to let them know. Finally someone came to serve them. We would return but please hire more staff. We were celebrating a birthday, the hotel were informed twice, they even asked what day it was and said they would make a note on the booking. Sadly, this was missed and not even acknowledged.

If you are able to eat in bar area and restaurant not sure why they insist on strict eating times - didn’t find this very relaxing also ordered drinks to go with dinner and after eating starters, main course arriving and asking staff twice a drink still had not been brought to us.

Inland facing room was very small and cramped, shower was substandard at best.
N.B. e booked an inward facing room (which was cheaper than a see view) because in November there is far less daylight hours in which to admire the sea view. By booking the cheaper room, we could stay for four nights, instead of three.
Restaurant was cold at breakfast.

The spa was very tired and dated and not a particularly pleasant/relaxing experience .
The staff seemed very disorganised - didnt bring wine when ordered. didnt bring coffee at breakfast. Had to ask on both occasions. Had to wait 10 mins to be seated at the table at both meals. They seemed very understaffed.
The wine was very expensive and poor quality for the charge. The food was average and the menu limited., especially as they ran out of the fish of the day by 7.30pm. The main dining room lacked atmosphere and was more like a bistro than a place for fine dining. The yellow chairs in the breakfast room were stained and grubby.
They charged almost double what most hotels charge to take a dog: £20 where the maximum charge is usually £12 and below.

A well-appointed hotel in a wonderful location on the top of a headland. Our bedroom, with a double aspect, had incredible views. The food was excellent, both at breakfast and dinner. Above all however were the friendly, courteous and efficient staff, all of whom were a delight to interact with. The receptionist (sorry never got her name but from Belfast so you will know who she is) was outstanding - warm, friendly and helpful. The only name we picked up was Trinny Cornwall in the dining room who did a terrific job even when hard pressed with many tables to cover. All the waiting staff were first class as were the ladies cleaning the bedrooms (and their manager who helped valiantly with a room lock which stopped working when the battery expired). The pool and jacuzzi were excellent. The walks in both directions from the hotel gave up excellent views of coast and headlands.

Dining areas (formal and informal) with plenty of glass windows through which to drink in the stunning views. Food at both breakfast and dinner was top notch.
All staff we bumped into, from reception to dining to cleaning staff, were all very friendly and helpful.
The whole experience is 10/10 in my view.

We had to climb 4 flights to our room and when we got there the electronic key card didn't work, so I had to go back down. This wasn't ideal for someone in their 80th year, and it would be helpful if this was flagged when booking so that a ground floor room could be chosen

I paid more to upgrade to a family room but in fact was put in a standard double room. The Polurrian blamed Travel Zoo but I know that was not the case as I had previously spoken to a receptionist about the family room. She said the family room was not available but that she would upgrade me to a signature room. On arrival I was placed in a standard double ‘garden room’ which in fact looks onto the carpark

Great value. Good rooms, lovely views only thing lacking was a coffee machine. Nice Elemis products . As doors to rooms are fire doors etc they make a loud noise on closing so only issue with sound proofing etc. vista restaurant lovely food and atmosphere and great views for both breakfast and dinner,
Preferred that space over the other restaurant. Nice music played. Lovely location right on coast path and lovely local cove. Only negatives are I tried to contact the hotel by email and their contact form on website and never received a response after several attempts. Also should have received a courtesy call prior to arrival which we didn’t so had to ring up and book restaurant etc. some staff were very helpful and friendly although a couple weren’t quite blunt and short of the answers so customer service could be improved.

A warm welcome from reception followed by entering a well cared for and very clean room. The beds were very comfortable and everything was of a superior quality. Each staff member we met during our stay couldn'y have been more helpful. Drinks were not at usually extortionate hotel prices which was a nice surprise. The food was tasty and well presented. The second night a la carte menu was virtually the same as the first and the remaining dishes featured something not to our taste so we opted to choose from the bar menu instead. we paid in cashfor our drinks in the bar rather than run a tab. However, the variations in what we ate were accurately itemised and charged when we checked out. The hotel has outstanding views and plenty of walking opportinities. it was apparent that the owners are constantly maintaining the entire property to a high standard. Over many years of staying at hotels using Travelzoo, the Polurrian is simply the best yet!

We had a thoroughly enjoyable three night stay here in September. The setting overlooking the sea is exceptional, and the restaurants and grounds make the most of the views. Our deluxe sea-view room on the second floor also had a wonderful view across the grounds to the sea. It was very comfortable with plenty of storage space and had a good shower over the bath. A bottle of water and fresh milk in the fridge were a nice touch. The staff were all extremely friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere had a relaxed feel to it. The food was very good with two different menus to choose from.We were very lucky with the weather, but given its dramatic setting this would be a great place to stay at any time of the year! The Polurrian is one of the nicest hotels we have ever stayed in and we look forward to visiting again sometime.

Wonderful experience at Polurrian on the Lizard. Really couldn’t fault anything. Did upgrade at time of booking to a Deluxe Sea View which was splendid. The bathroom was quite small but adequate, the bed really comfortable and no light penetrated the blinds and curtains. Staff were extremely efficient and friendly and the food exceptionally good. Look forward to returning but perhaps not while the new wing is being built.

What a super break we had at the Polurrian, everything was first rate. The location is stunning, and so convenient for walking the South West Coast Path - it's right there at the bottom of the garden! We had chosen a sea view room and it really was, laying in bed looking out of the window the sea was so close it was like being on a liner. The room was large and comfortable and the bathroom was really full size. We had tea/coffee making facilities and fresh milk and bottled water in the fridge. I take oat milk and the staff were only too happy to provide this, again in a little glass bottle. The meals were incredible and much better value than we have had on other deals with £27.50 dining allowance. We had two really good courses with plenty of choice and I can honestly say that there was nothing we didn't enjoy fully. We were of course very lucky with the weather after all the rain recently, we had three days of sunshine. Our thanks to all the staff every one of whom were extremely friendly and professional.

I would thoroughly recommend this break, although a little loathe to share with too many people in case we can't get a booking next time!! I enjoyed taking advantage of the outdoor pool (although I was the only person using it as far as I could see). We didn't use the spa so can't comment on this.

This was our second visit and it even exceeded the first which had been great. Once again we opted for the seaview room upgrade and it was more than worth it. I would say it was the best hotel room ever. Full on seaview right outside the window, really comfy beds, luxury of fresh milk and water in the fridge and an enormous (for an hotel) bathroom with a good powerful shower over the bath. The staff were brilliant.

Overall a good hotel and worth using. However, there is very little management and supervision in the dining room and young people are left to do all the work. It was not unusual for the breakfast bar to be completely without yogurt, fruit compote, croissants, cereal bowls and bread and butter plates most mornings. This had to be pointed out to the overworked - young - staff who then rushed to ensure everything was out for service. This happened most mornings. Because of the hotel being booked up completely, we had to agree to have our evening meal at 9.45pm on the day we arrived (Tuesday 24 October) The menu was limited (lamb, beef steak at extra cost, two fish dishes or risotto. I do not eat fish, most certainly didn't want risotto, was not prepared to pay extra for the steak and was informed there was no lamb left. I had to agree to eat two first-courses instead. Otherwise, the food was excellent and enjoyable.
Other Comments
Our last nights' evening meal was completely spoilt by a large party of 7 men and 1 lady who were extremely boisterous and noisy in the dining room. (This was Thursday 27 October). By 9.00pm we felt compelled to leave the dining room because of the noise - and couldn't help but notice when we left that only one other table, of two people, remained - plus this overloud party. Perhaps a private dining room would have been better suited for this over exuberant party.

This is our third stay at the Polurrian Hotel, and each time we have experienced the same problem at check-out. The bill presented bears no relationship to the purchase slips we signed during our stay. Instead of presenting the bill according to each purchase, everything is reconfigured and grouped together according to type of purchase, and given codes, which mean nothing to the customer. I suspect this style of presentation is for the convenience of the hotel’s accounting system, rather than for the convenience of the customer. Incidentally the signed purchase slips were not presented with the bill, and were available only on a screen and only when I asked to see them. It took 30 minutes for the receptionist to reconcile the bill to what we had actually purchased so that we could understand it. Only then could we see that we had been overcharged on food and the pet fee. Furthermore, 3 separate service charges had been added without prior warning, something which we found more than a little presumptuous. The whole process was chaotic, unpleasant and confusing, and spoiled an otherwise pleasant stay.

Much enjoyed our short stay. Very pleasant and attentive staff. Wonderful location although the dramatic seascape was best enjoyed from within the hotel at this time of year.

The level of lighting while assisting with energy conservation made it difficult for those with limited vision.Likewise the size and position of the TV made it unusable for the partially sighted.

Staff extremely helpful. Enjoyed spa day and all other facilities. However we not aware that this was a dog friendly hotel. This was in fact no problem except in one regard. On arrival our room had dog hairs everywhere, including the blanket, duvet, pillows, furniture and floor. The room had to be thoroughly cleaned after our arrival, bedding changed, floor in bathroom washed. This was done to our satisfaction by helpful staff. Rooms should be properly checked before guests arrive. A housekeeping issie

The bed size. Too small. How many people still sleep in a 4ft 6in bed! Didn't have a good nights sleep for the entire 4 nights we stayed. We requested twice to see if we could be moved to a room with a wider bed but got no response from reception either time. Even if they couldn't move us they could have at least had the courtesy to let us know. It was also ridiculous that you couldn't book an early morning swim time in the pool the night before. We felt like we were staying on a deal.

Great place to stay, lovely rooms, food and pool. Very friendly staff in the restaurant, but the lady who served us in the conservatory was very rude. Very abruptly told us no cocktails being made only to see other tables being served them!

Lovely hotel I'm a great location. Recent ownership change clearly investing well in the hotel. Fresh and sorted. New building works will enhance it further. There is a parking shortage but part of the current work will help that to some extent. Didn't room bistro and bar areas all had a fantastic sea view across towards Lands End. Rooms were good. Bed was good. Bathroom great. Staff were lovely and very attentive. Great all round.

Nice hotel although they were short of staff as a lot in the hospitality industry are. Food was good but service was very slow and even at breakfast one has to ask for tea or coffee at least twice before it arrived..
Still operating Covid rules regarding the indoor pool/jacuzzi and talking about “bubbles” when saying it had to be booked and no more than 2 rooms at a time. Ridiculous!!!. Other than that the sea view rooms were fine and food good.

Given the situation, staff on the ground were trying very hard despite management's decision to make all rooms available: This was not appropriate: rooms unfit for use because of faulty equipment or subject to excessive construction and transport noise pollution should not be offered even by Travelzoo. Cuisine and waiting experience were excellent as well as reception service.

We found ourselves booked into what could better be described as a building site rather than a hotel. The only parking available was on an unmettal surface, dusty and muddy, which we then had to walk into the hotel as we brought in her own luggage. Ther was all manner of intrusive noise from 6 am, until late from a combination of the very large construction equipment large hydraulic hammers dogggers working on rock and large drills, and that was just outside. It was made worse by the noise of the containers, bringing in the food from the caterers, starting at 6 am. Each trolley sounded like a train under our window. On request, we were moved to another room, the other side of the hotel away from the building work, only to find that the bedside lights didn't function. If this is how Travelzoo is supposed to work, we won't be coming back to you.

A very poor dinner menu, which was the same for both nights. Breakfast on the second morning had clearly been pre cooked, the poached eggs were like cold hard boiled eggs. Overall very disappointing considering the price of the meals and drinks. We went during mid week,even so the hotel only had about 10 rooms occupied, and the lounge was essentially empty, so no atmosphere

We had a lovely room in a fantastic location. Housekeeping was particularly outstanding; our room was always spotless. All the staff we met were great. We used and enjoyed the Health Suite and Pool which were very relaxing. The hotel has a very relaxed atmosphere. The bar food was far better than what was offered in the restaurant. There was more choice and the cost, portion size and presentation quality made it better value for money.
We would definitely recommend this hotel and would visit again but only on a Bed and Breakfast basis until such time as the restaurant food improves.

The food in the restaurant was particularly disappointing as the Chef did not cope well with my dairy intolerance. Instead of substituting ingredients the dairy item was removed from the dish. Consequently, the dish was totally unbalanced and dry and very overpriced. This was reported in the restaurant, at reception and when we checked out. The only response was that this would be fed back to the Chef. Nothing else was done and we were still charged for it. Care should also be taken by the restaurant to ensure food is hot when delivered to the table. The menu didn't change very much over 5 nights and the menu choices were dull, unimaginative and poorly presented. The full English Breakfast seemed to have cheap ingredients and tasted bland. However, the Eggs Benedict was gorgeous! Strangely, the salt and pepper pots were not grinders and we needed to take the bottom off the pepper to get anything out. The bar was well run and quietly efficient, but the cocktails were expensive and the price changed depending on who served you.

Fabulous location, great pool and hot tub, comfortable room, marvellous breakfasts, evening meals a little disappointing. Some confusion over the bill when we checked out as it seems their computer wasn't giving the full dinner allowance, although it was clearly stated on the hotel paperwork. Still we got it sorted and had to pay only for our drinks.

Rooms dated, smelt stale on arrival, all rooms are dog friendly which is why they smell. There should be rooms set aside where dogs are not allowed. Bar and restaurant very overpriced, the quality of food not great for what you pay.
