Fabulous Castle Hotel

Loved staying at this old hotel. It was absolutely beautiful! Small room but to be expected. Modern convenience with claw/ shower!! Our window looked out on the Tintagel Castle ruins! We stayed two nights while exploring the area. Food was wonderful and you could get continental breakfast to go .

Castle CamelNOT

An awesome castle (though modern) in an amazing setting. Unfortunately, that's all the redeeming points. The standard double room is small, pokey and outdated. The widows didn't open but leaked (windy). The ensuite was nothing more than a small cupboard.

As you drive towards the hotel, it really has the wow factor; a castle on the edge of a cliff next to the Atlantic Ocean. As you get closer you realise that its run down and hasn't been maintained externally for a number of years. Inside, you enter into the Great Hall, and again wow, a really lovely space on the ground floor with huge fireplaces and sweeping staircases. The first person we saw when when we entered the hotel was the owner, John Mappin, as guests in his establishment, It would have been great if he had welcomed us and asked us about our journey; instead, he simply dismissed us as if we were invading his space. The next person we met was the hotel Receptionist. Again, there was no welcome, just a perplexed look as we had arrived after a 5 hour journey at 1.50, when check-in opened at 2. We were told we were unable to check-in as the rooms were not ready, and told to go for a walk or a drive for a while - not even shown to the bar or longue to relax. When we finally got our key, we were located on the second floor, as we entered the room (which cost £250 per night) we were welcomed by a large space cluttered with mis-matching, old furniture; the curtains were at least 30 years old and the curtain rail was hanging off the wall. Despite other reviews saying that the hotel decor was 'quirky' or 'shabby-chic', it isn't - it is simply shabby. £250pn can be so better spent with some research, the hotel is massively under-invested despite being at full capacity a lot.

We were only able to book a Standard room, but it was small, which would be OK, but the bathroom was like an airplane toilet with virtually no room to move in. Obviously as an old building that in the past had hallway bathrooms that we shared, this was a poor afterthought to upgrade the room to be able to ma t as an en suite bathroom.

The bathroom connected to our room was small considering the price and differed from the shown photos, possibly unlucky with the room given and the situation might be better in other rooms. However, the area and the room were nice. The lobby had strange smell, mostly likely due to old age of the property.

This property is in a stunning location but do be very careful what room you book. We had a four poster room with sea view so quite above a standard room and unfortunately the bathroom in this room was more like a caravan shower and toilet although probably even worse and smaller! as I have stayed in caravans and seen better bathrooms!! It was a massive let down.. other people did experience the same and you could upgrade for a hefty price to have a room with a proper en-suite. The bed itself was really creaky and the pillows soft and duvet too thick but that bit is personal preference. A lot of people checked out early because of the bathroom issue, I guess a lot of the room have these so called “en-suites..” I don’t expect to pay for a four poster bedroom which was quite big itself to then be expected to use this so called bathroom. I wouldn’t stay here again and you could stay somewhere much better with similar views.

2 days at Camelo Castle Hotel

I stayed at Camelot Hotel for 2 days. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and the views were absolutely magnificent, unique and truly memorable. The outdoor areas of the hotel are gorgeous, and the surrounding landscape is breathtaking. However, there were several issues that affected my stay. The toilets were of poor quality, resembling a plastic cabin more suited to yachts, which did not match the otherwise elegant design of the room. I had a private small balcony, but unfortunately could not use it, as it was directly connected to my neighbour’s window. Out of respect for their privacy and dignity, I chose not to sit outside. The pillows were very uncomfortable, and I could not sleep the first night. Additionally, the TV was not operating, and although there was a video option available, it also did not function. Overall, while the exterior and location of the hotel are truly impressive, these drawbacks made my experience less enjoyable, and I would not choose to stay here again.

The staff at Camelot Castle were amazing and very helpful , especially with my two Young grandsons. The hotel rooms were very clean however the rooms we stayed in are in need of refurbishment and the pod bathrooms are tiny and difficult to use. We did have a lovely holiday but if we stayed again we would request rooms with proper bathroom facilities.
