“The location is a definite high point, central to Newquay's beaches and nightlife, plus it's handy to public transport. I noted some comments on the tired décor, yet the rooms come with the essentials and sea views. While the amenities are lean, the personalized service and free evening drinks add a nice touch.”

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Beresford Hotel offers many guests a convenient location, being just a short walk from the town center and, in some cases, directly opposite Tolcarne Beach, providing lovely ocean views. Rooms are often described as spacious, and breakfast in the dining room has been a highlight for some. A few guests have mentioned issues with shower pressure, but overall, the hotel's central position appears to be a significant draw.

the staff was helpful. they assisted me with local information. my room was a twin room with a beautiful sea view. the view alone was worth the stay. i found the breakfast in the dining room to be a fantastic experience. i appreciated the cleanliness of my room. the bed was comfortable. free wi-fi was also provided.

during my stay, i noted the bar was not fully operational. it did not serve alcohol. water pressure in the shower was less than ideal. i observed the decor to be somewhat dated. the carpets showed signs of wear.

convenient location friendly staff outdated decor limited breakfast

The location offers easy access to nearby amenities. The staff were friendly and helpful with directions. They answered all my questions. I found the room clean upon arrival. It was also generally quiet at night.

The decor looked somewhat outdated. The furniture looked worn. The breakfast options seemed limited with few options. The toaster needed multiple passes to brown the bread evenly.
