They dont advise you need to pre reserve parking at a cost per day. Also didnt offer breakfast over the busy valentines weekend. The rooms we were given were not the same as they advertised. We were given tiny family rooms with no view. The rooms shown on webiste were bigger and brighter. We refused to stay.

Pleasant stay

I arrived on the fri to meet marrisa who che cked me in with a beautiful smile and a plasent attitude. I only had one problem with noisy people in room next to me but it was sorted within 5 min. Rooms could do with a make over but it did not effect my stay. Location for train station and bus station excellent. All the way through my stay marrisa went above and beyond her job title. Booked another stay in june 2025 .

Dont bother

On arrival i checked to make sure I was parked in the right place only to be told if I parked it would cost £10!! So we parked our car two roads away for free and walked back to the hotel. I asked if we could book a dinner in the restaurant however it was closed. The man told us we could get breakfast next door at the Premier Inn!!! We had to go to the city centre for dinner. As it was out of season mostly everything was shut. Our room was on the fourth floor with a great view. Very basic, bin not emptied, bathroom freezing and rusty wall heater did not work. No bathroom commoditees. I would not reccommend the hotel as it was a very disappointing stay for my husbands birthday.

Budget dated hotel. Great location, friendly staff

Location is excellent. Central in Newquay and right on the sea front ovelooking Tolcarne beach. Easy to walk to and lovely sandy beach. All staff very friendly and helpful. However hotel is very dated and run down. Please see photo of actual room there. So different from the photos upgraded to another room when complained.There is no parking included however from October to April can park for free on nearby roads.

Fair out of season stay... On arrival at the front of the hotel it looked closed as it had no outside lighting, not even the hotel sign was lit, some might have been concerned, even walked away, given the untidy, distressed look to the hotel which is somewhat dire. The hotel’s location proved to be wonderfully convenient for the town centre, local public transport connections and all the other amenities this seaside town had to offer. Staying in late autumn and ‘out of season’ in a seaside resort town, guests are always going to have expect to compromise on the facilities that any hotel has to offer and the Beresford is no exception, the restaurant was not open for dinner (and I was not offered breakfast so I speculate not open for breakfast either) and on my visit the bar was also closed; in fact the communal areas were as empty as a ‘ghost town’. The welcome was friendly and efficient, the lift worked, however most rooms you still have to climb up some stairs to enter. The corridors leading to the rooms did not give a good impression having dirty stained carpets and walls on every turn. The single room I stayed in was large for a solo room and soon warmed up when the heating was activated and the windows closed. Notably, the bed, mattress, linen, duvet and pillows were endearingly comfortable and aided a good nights sleep. The television was large and modern plus all the free-view channels were present; with the Wi-Fi also reasonable speedy and having good connecti
