We ate lunch here. The menu is compact, though there is something for most people's palate.I must say I found the drinks and food very expensive...£9 for a sandwich.£6 for a pale ale.The food was tasty but would I eat there again?Only if pushed.They allow dogs..Nearby activities: In days gone past, Chapel Street was a well-known antique and Artinsnal area.Sadly, in the 1990s and 2000s it lost a lot of the must visit atmosphere. I am pleased to say that happily it is now coming back.It is slowly regaining the atmosphere that it used to have.This hotel and restaurant is evidence of this change. Albeit more expensive than I would like.Walkability: Easily reached, though the pavements are narrow and, at times, slippery. It is not suitable for easy wheelchair use, though it is manageable.Beware of cars if forced to walk off pavement.Food & drinks: Expensive.The beer choice is very limited.Sandwiches are artisinal and also expensive.Would I eat there again? Only as a last resort because of the cost.Noteworthy details: Penzance is changing and polarising. You have the general pasty, KFC, Chinese, Thai, pub, and other standard cafe culture type foods up and down the high street.Then there seems to be a more expensive trend in some of the pubs and restaurants, sadly with high-end pricing.I think there has been a slow influx of "up country" start-ups and new influences that are coming into the town that have brought more expensive ideas.Although penzance sorely needed a shake-up.I hope the changes are not too soon for what is still a poorer underlying populace.

I stopped by here on Sunday for a bite to eat with the girl I love and her dog. We were welcomed by a warm and friendly chap called Daniel who made our whole experience amazing. It had been an emotional day and this was exactly what we needed. Daniel was not only very likeable but very attentive without intruding, he nailed the balance perfectly! The place itself is beautiful and relaxing, the food was also good but it's the staff that make it?

Genuine, warm, and welcoming staff. The accomodations are quite stylish. I highly recommend this lodging.

Lunch today! Great welcome from Jonathan and amazing food!! We went for small plates: fabulous squid, spicy prawn tacos, the BEST sweet potato fries ever, turbot ceviche, delicious courgettes with mint and chilli and peach & heritage tomato salad. All totally amazing!! The chocolate tart was world class and strawberries and whipped almond cream delicious! All washed down with a perfect bottle of Picpoul de Pinet. You know it’s good when you utter ‘same table for dinner on Thursday please’!! Can’t wait!!

Excellent in all respects - location, interiors, staff and food. The rooms are very well stocked with local treats, generous bathroom products and imaginatively done up. Our dog was thoroughly spoilt. So were we.

We arrived early in Penzance and I walked around with my husband to find a coffee shop and we came across with Artist Residence Clubhouse. The atmosphere inside was amazing with a inspiring layout, a very good vibe and amazing staff.We both went for Full English Breakfast as we had a full day ahead and it was a really good choice as the quality of ingredients in the food is of high standards. They've used smoked paprika for beans together with homemade bread and sausage.

An excellent room with a fine view of the historic Admiral Benbow: the room was quirky, yet modern and with every convenience (including a minibar - a rarity nowadays!) Fantastic service in the restaurant, except for one morning, when breakfast was very delayed, but that's a minor quibble. A highly recommended hotel.

Truly nice and different experience. This hotel really stands out by its looks, by its service and by the quality of food. Everything to the finest detail is foreseen (European plug, Nespresso machine, fridge, qualitative tea and biscuits). Staff are genuinely friendly and sincerely helpful. Very dog friendly hotel with dog bed, dog biscuits and bowls. Very tasty breakfast. Thanks to the airconditioning in the room and a very comfortable bed we had a good nights sleep. Robes in the room were a pleasant surprise.

We enjoyed an excellent four day stay here. Lovely loft bedroom with quirky decor and well-equipped bathroom. Nice touches in the room such as blue tooth radio. Could have done with a little more storage space in the bedroom. Staff were very friendly. We had several delicious dinners and breakfasts - chairs could have been a bit more comfortable! Overall a great stay.

We loved our room: The Lookout. It had a balcony and was spacious. There were good cooking facilities in the kitchenette, but I’m not one for food prep on hotel holidays. We had breakfast everyday in the restaurant. Have to say, I do think this or at least some breakfast items should be included in the steep room price. We had dinner there once: middling fare and ate elsewhere for the remaining 3 nights. Staff were friendly and created a good atmosphere but the restaurant service was a little hit and miss. Most annoying thing was the extremely uncomfortable wooden frame seating in the lounge of our room. It was billed as a sofa bed but wasn’t. After one evening of trying to get comfortable on it we just sat on the bed. I loved Penzance although imagine in full Summer it’s even harder to find parking. We were lucky with a space (had to pay) in a nearish car park. All in all a wonderful holiday, just a few gripes re hotel. Would I stay there again? Yes if in Penzance.
