My stay was excellent, the reason for staying was a funeral and I have to say it was soooo good, our room was brilliant and the view was to die for, it was a totally different reason for staying, but we would definitely go back for a holiday,

Diappointing
Great location. Hotel needs refurbishment. Bathroom was very dirty. Hair from previous occupant, engrained dust on radiator, hair and dust on a plastic container on the vanity unit in the bathroom, a large crack on the shower tiles and shower floor unclean with a hue of pink residue. I asked for the bathroom to be cleaned but unfortunately this did not happen. Room information states that there are blackout blinds and a phone in the room, however these were not so in our room. Venitian blind was broken and therefore not easy to use.

Disappointed
The staff were pleasant however they always seemed to be busy doing more than one job. The hotel itself is very run down and in major need of refurbishment. Likewise furniture needs replacing and updating. Breakfast service finished at 9am and dinner service was a set three course menu with one service that was over by 7.15pm! It felt that everything is run on a budget. We paid £300 for two nights room only. There was nothing to reflect this price.

Being out of season the hotel was very quiet but the receptionist on duty couldn't have been more helpful. She recommended local restaurants, served us at the bar and gave plenty of ice when requested. If I had to be negative it would be that the room was cold due to limited timing of the heating system and that the pool although inviting was too cold to use.

A hidden gem.
What a very special place! Obviously the location is a huge part of it. Where else can you look out over a beautiful beach and open sea, especially in its price bracket. On top of that, the seaview rooms, lovely clean and warm. Only down side there was a slightly soft mattress for our personal taste. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Very important for us, was the quietness. At the end of its own access road and only the garden and sea to the front. We intend to recommend this hotel to everyone.

We travel down to Newquay regularly, but have never stayed at the Glendorgal before. After this weekend, we will definitely be staying there again. Although the weather wasn't the best because of the snow!!, the staff were very friendly and helpful, and nothing was too much bother. We walked down on to Porth beach and across to the Mermaid, where they do lovely home cooked food and a fantastic carvery for Sunday lunch. You can't beat it!!

Had the worse nights sleep ever, bed made a terrible noise every thine you move, you could here every movement within the hotel, too hot no window to open, the room was very depressing . £60 a night isn’t expensive but I would never go back.

Very tired and dirty hotel
Dirty hotel that is in need of a major re-furb. Bed sheets had stains on them, bathroom had lots of missing times on the bath panel. Soap dispensers had mould growing in them. Bar area had cob-webs and dead spiders hanging from them
