The room was spacious, lots of storage space available. Very comfortable bed. It was all clean, spotless ! Breakfast was really good, I loved "no food wasting policy" and choosing your breakfast the night before. Very friendly stuff, very accommodating. Perfect location, 5 minutes walking to Penzance, but still away from all the busy crowds. It's a dog friendly place, our Charlie was very welcome 😊🐶 It's a great little spot with locals, feels much better and more authentic than other busy touristy places.

The Kings Arms Inn offers bed and breakfast accommodation in one of West Cornwall’s most atmospheric pubs. Free parking is possible on site, and free high-speed Wi-Fi is accessible throughout the property

To use the Australia vernacular, this pub is a little rippa. The staff were friendly and welcoming; nothing was too much trouble. The accommodations were cosy yet very comfortable. If you can, take the time to have a drink in the bar with the locals, so much fun. The food was simple yet some of the best I've had in the UK. As someone with dietary issues, it was very easy. If you enjoy a hearty bowl of soup, try the bacon and lentil; I guess a twist on pea and ham....it is delicious. Highly recommend

Enjoyed the marvelous full Cornish breakfast with coffee, juices, some fruits and bread. The staff were very friendly. Due to a railway strike; the Yacht Inn staff was able to extend my stay an extra day with minimal effort on my part.

    The room was exactly what I needed for my short stay. Would highly recommend. The radio in the room was a nice touch. I have stayed before, and would again. This time I didn’t need dinner or breakfast, but in the past they have been great.

    I liked the artwork and the decor of the inn. It was very convenient to have a lounge for an early breakfast or evening dinner/drink. The staff was very friendly. The bathroom was great with a heated towel holder and rainfall shower. I also loved the natural lotions and soaps that were free. The room was quiet and the bed was very comfortable.

    Great location within easy walking distance to both train and bus stations. A very old tavern full of atmosphere, wood and brass and nautically themed. Room was clean and bright with a sea view. Tea, coffee, biscuits and fresh milk provided. Excellent breakfasts, dinners and menu choices. So good we had dinner there every night! . Staff and owner couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. We were sorry to leave but will definitely be back!
