The staff made this stay. We enjoyed the breakfasts and the choice. Food was lovely. Room was spacious, bathroom was spacious. An old hotel but it had character. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The downer was not being able to initially park as the car park was full of other dining only guests, which made lugging the bags from the car park in Boscastle in pouring rain not much fun.

We had a wonderful stay at The Wellington. The staff were incredibly kind, and couldn’t do enough for us. The food at breakfast was great and the evening meal was excellent, too.

Great stay at the Wellington Hotel but as the Hotel is very old it's looking tired and rooms could do with a lick of paint

Excellent Hotel - Amazing Staff
Myself and a work colleague stayed in the hotel for three nights.
We had a very special request for charging our work vehicle and they were more than accommodating with this.
From the start the staff were friendly and very approachable, for the first two mornings we were unable to attend breakfast as we had to be on the road by 7:30 am, so they made us up sausage sandwiches up the night before so we could have them in the morning.
I have given the hotel a 4 for cleanliness and condition and I totally understand that this is down to the age of the building as I appreciate it is very hard to maintain and keep clean.
The whole stay was brilliant and we cannot thank the staff for their cooperation and helpfulness.
I would recommend this hotel to any one who was staying in the area.

A disappointing experience. Having reserved a premium ‘Turret’ room we quickly discovered the heating was not working - and on a freezing night. The staff must have known this - and ours was not the only room affected. Two mini plug in radiators were supplied but they were not fit for purpose in what was a large room.
The management could give no guarantee when the problem would be fixed: we were left with no practical option but to cut short our stay and find alternative accommodation.
We secured a refund for what would have been our second night but no other compensation was offered.
Our main course at dinner was good though the soup had little taste. Breakfast was perfectly acceptable - aside from the terrible instant taste coffee.
This Victorian hotel is perfectly placed for coastal walks and Boscastle harbour but it needs better management and fresh investment
