Polurrian Hotel
Take a breath, feel the sea breeze and make the Cornish coast your playground. From early morning slow yoga to seal-spotting adventures, we'll inspire a fresh view of life. Here, you can savour the simple things: share some tapas, stroll down to the sand or sip drinks with a view. This is a coastal hotel with a very different outlook.
Services
The Polurrian has welcomed visitors to the Lizard Peninsula for over a century, with figures including Marconi, Winston Churchill and Clark Gable taking advantage of its unrivalled location. Originally built in 1890, the Polurrian was a fashionable railway hotel appealing to distinguished guests. In 1901, Guglielmo Marconi stayed here while sending the first ever transatlantic radio messages from nearby Poldhu Cove.

Really nice chilled hotel. Great for families with dogs. Separate room for children in garden suite to let the dog out made our weekend a very relaxing one. Friendly and very helpful staff. No charging for cars but they plugin through window. It's time they install a charging point. The beach is a stone throw away. Lovely stay. We'll be back.

Lovely views and really friendly staff. Often have live music which is an added touch. Drinks prices are pretty steep but I guess that's what you pay for a drink with a view!

I recommend this hotel because the staff are very friendly and helpful. The rooms are very large nice and warm because it is January. Food is very good. A lot of different types of drinks at bar . The car parking is free. Disabled friendly. There is
Two rooms that you get away from what going on. A pool in one room. There is disabled toilets on the lower floors. We are going to come back in winter time because it is lot warmer than where live. The prices are very good as well. The staff made special night for my wife because it was are wedding anniversary and would like to say thank you.
Thank

Lovely hotel, lovely area, great afternoon tea and cocktails, but the evening meal was cold, the cheese board was stale and rubbery, we had to ask more than once for a bottle of water which when came was without any glasses and there were a lot of very loud children running about.

A great hotel for an English short break.. Good food, facilities and accommodation.. Plenty of different lounges and rooms to sit and while away the hours.. Small gym and pool. Tennis courts, outdoor playground and outdoor pool. Great access to coastal paths to the Lizard and Mullion Cove. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

I’m lucky to live close to the hotel with its fantastic facilities, the spa treatments and days are amazing for the price and the afternoon tea is to die for. The views are totally amazing and all the staff are so friendly and helpful especially Helen in reception. Can’t wait till our next visit

We spent a week there just a couple of weeks ago, we had a fantastic time.
Staff were so friendly and helpful from Maggie and the girls on the front desk, to Lynette and all the waiting staff in the bar and restaurant.
Pool area and jacuzzi were lovely and although you had to book this was no problem
Views are to die for and plenty of great walks to explore.
Yes the bedrooms could do with a freshen up but this certainly did not spoil our enjoyment.
Thanks everyone.

Fabulous setting, comfortable, clean hotel. Brilliant idea to book the pool and jacuzzi for private use. Breakfasts excellent, dinner was good if a little "samey". Waiting staff could do with more training. Overall a good break and we would go back.

Impressive looking hotel in great location overlooking Polurrian Cove on the Lizard. Owned (since Mar '08) by the same family that runs the 4 star Treglos Hotel at Constantine Bay near Padstow, this is a friendly and informal hotel. It would seem that the Barlow family are still investing money in the Polurrain - perhaps to gain that extra star. At the time we were there, they were carrying out work improving the leisure suite - the hotel has indoor and outdoor pools as well as a pool table, jacuzzi, beauty treatment rooms etc.
The food is plentiful and of a good standard (important) and is
