An Experience Not to be Missed.
This is the best hotel experience I’ve ever had, hands down. The view, the room, the food, the people, and the location are all stellar. A truly magical Cornwall hotel.

Fantastic weekend
Our weekend away was fantastic. We went to St Michael's Mount walking the causeway to the island, that was amazing. The island its self was beautiful, you need some good walking shoes to go the castle but when you were up there it was like being on top of the world. From the balcony you could look down on the gardens which looked a lot different than when you were walking them.There were alot of people there but didnt make any difference to the peacefulness that you felt.
The Godolphin was a lovely hotel nothing was to much trouble for the staff they helped in every way. Most of our meals were by the window looking out to St Michael's Mount which was amazing , watching the tide going in and out.
The Hotel was very clean and tidy . The standard was very high but a relaxed feel which was great. The staff always had smiles on their faces and were very polite.
We had a great weekend sitting on the balconies in the sun had a brilliant time.

From our first entry onto the property until the end, everything was first rate. Our main reason for staying there was to visit St Michaels Mount and both our room and breakfast had unobstructed views of the Mount. We had an amazing visit.

This hotel is a showstopper. We had a room overlooking the castle island and could hear the waves crash at night. The staff, the breakfast and all of the amenities were 5 stars all the way. We absolutely loved staying here.

Another fantastic stay at The Godolphin for us! The staff are so welcoming, warm and gracious from the receptionists to housekeeping and the dining staff. They’re so accommodating and welcoming of our children, which is so lovely. The food is divine; I especially enjoyed the mushroom gnocchi and pork belly and my husband loved the fish and chips and chocolate fondant. Staff go above and beyond every time to make the experience a lovely one. Special thanks to Prue and Riley for looking after us so well and the lovely girls on reception. We stayed in Penzer Point again and it’s such a gorgeous room; the view is everything!
We left a £60 as a small thank you; please enjoy a drink on us!!! We’ll be back again for sure.
