Great location for exploring the south west coast! And the terrace is great for a morning coffee or an evening cocktail and easy access for a cold swim in the harbour! Highly recommend! Get a room with a sea view if you can.
Lovely, clean, cosy hotel conveniently located near Falmouth town centre. Lovely harbour view from bedroom and breakfast room.
I wish there was a minibar in the room for store cold drinks on a hot day!
Very friendly and helpful staff,
Would stay here again next time (for the right price!).
Very happy with the hotel.It is situated close the harbour so the views from the bar and dining room are good,it is only a ten minute walk to the town centre.The food is very good no self service at breakfast you are served at the table.The staff are excellent

Magnificent views and friendly, very efficient staff.
Downside was poor quality tissues and toilet paper, some confusion over when you could order food in the bar and an unusable kettle in the room, although this was replaced immediately.
This was the most expensive property of the trip and the least nice. The hotel is a bit rundown and old. Carpets are dirty and the first room smelled like sewage. We carried our bags across two flights of staircases and the hotel carpet looked awful. The second room was much bigger with a Window but run down and we could hear music from kitchen most of the night. Our room was so hot without ac or a big window to open for air. Our morning view was of an old roof with seagulls begging for food at the window and seagull poop and the harbor. I was underwhelmed with breakfast and the hotel in general and would recommend elsewhere to stay for the price. We stayed in much nicer rooms which cost less in the Cotswolds, Bath and the Midlands.

I have stayed at The Greenbank a few times. This visit was disappointing- service at dinner was slow and we received our food before any water or wine was brought - same at breakfast - food brought before the tea and coffee - not a great experience unfortunately
Helped with my wife's mobility by providing reserved car parking throughout our stay.
Spacious room with great facilities inc fridge and numerous hot drink options plus fantastic view of harbour.
Staff friendly and obliging.
Excellent restaurant and bar.
Lovely hotel in a beautiful setting. Breakfast was great quality although be prepared to wait for your food, service is slow especially if not seated by the windows. We had to ask to have a window seat on our last morning and it seemed an issue, but we were allowed one and oddly the service was much quicker. It felt like if you’d booked a premium room which we couldn’t as we had a triple room you had preferential treatment. Be aware if staying towards the back of the hotel over the underground garage it is very warm. We stayed on a gloomy rainy few days and our room was like a sauna. Other parts of the hotel were much cooler. The rooms were spacious and clean and well decorated.
A grand dame of a hotel. Extremely attentive staff and a great location. Some of the corridors are tired but generally the surroundings are very good. The in-house pub is also excellent.
We have stayed here previously while visiting our daughter at uni. Can't fault anything. The very friendly attentive staff, cleanliness, furnishings, beautiful rooms, delicious food.
One of the best places we've ever stayed. Thank you.
