The location of the Longboat Inn is fantastic (very close to the train station and in downtown Penzance). The beer selection is great and the staff were great (particularly Ryan). The rooms are small and we had difficulty getting any hot water in the morning.

Great owner & super friendly, attentive staff. Located one block from the Penzance train station. Breakfast included was hearty & delicious. Dinner one evening, also wonderful. Staying in this multi-hundred year old Inn was like being in Penzance when our grandparents lived there 💙

Walking distances to train and bus station. There is a bit of a walk up stairs with luggage. No elevator. The rooms are named after different places in area. The one downside is the dinning area needed reservations and stop food early. Luggage storage great. Communication prior to visit was amazing. Would stay there again and overall enjoyed visit.
