Great location, however we circled the town for 40 minutes with Sat Nav being wrong. The breakfast was one of the best we’ve had and the lovely lady who served us was a delight. Clean comfortable and no complaints about the hotel.
Getting there and paying for parking.
Great breakfast, friendly hostess and waiting staff, great location
Having an area where we could sit as a group
Gestito con amore e passione. Molto pulito. Centrale. In un edificio storico ristrutturato con cura.
location,clean and very tidy,lovely people
parking,did get out side the hotel in the end.Newquay isn't good for parking,nothing to do with the hotel
Loved our stay.
Fantastic location, both in the heart of town and right by the beach. The beaches were both picturesque, clean sandy beach. Accommodation was very clean, owners very helpful and accommodating. Breakfast options were plentiful.

Location is excellent on Killacourt, next to Towan beach and very short stroll into the town. Room very clean and comfortable. Lovely breakfast included in the price.
Wyjątkowy pobyt – czuliśmy się jak w domu! ❤️ Nasz pobyt w OYO Minerva Guesthouse był naprawdę wspaniały! Obsługa była niezwykle miła, pomocna i serdeczna – od samego początku czuliśmy się tak, jakbyśmy byli w domu. 😊 Ogromny plus za czystość – wszystko było zadbane i schludne. Również posiłki zasługują na najwyższą ocenę – zdecydowanie 10/10+! 🍽️ To miejsce ma wyjątkową, rodzinną atmosferę, dzięki której pobyt był jeszcze przyjemniejszy. Z całego serca polecamy OYO Minerva Guesthouse i z przyjemnością wrócimy ponownie! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
La ubicación es excelente, la habitación triple que elegimos era muy espaciosa y cómoda y el desayuno fue estupendo

It was really nice room location staff breakfast all out of 10 /10
Tolle Lage mit Meerblick! Zimmer mit Kaffee- und Teezubereiter ausgestattet, Prosecco zur Begrüßung! Frühstück gut und typisch englisch!
Behälter für Cornflakes (anstatt Pappkarton) sowie Schale für Marmelade (anstatt klebriges Glas) wären schön gewesen.
Everything was great—truly highly recommended.
Our sea view
Veggie sausage wasn't the best but the female waitress was adorable
Stanza spaziosa e pulitissima. Doccia fantastica!
Location is great! Staff were nice.
Old decor, needs renovating! The smell from the carpets, is something we picked up as soon as we walked in. The smell was the same in the rooms and bedding clearly hadn’t been dried as it smelt of damp. Also the breakfast, wasn’t great! A young family bought their own Nutella as the hotel didn’t have any! No proper coffee or selection of coffees and cooked breakfast wasn’t great either. The hotel/B&B wasn’t cheap, booking.com tells me ‘we’re in luck’ when booking it as it’s never available, so we expected more, or a better!
It was really clean Owners very friendly
Nothing it was great
What a gem! For the price it far exceeded my expectations! Had everything one needs. Staff lovely. We'll be back!
Perfect location with a lovely spacious room for a family of four. The staff were incredibly helpful and assisted with our requests in a very friendly manner. The breakfast options were great too.
Gesamtes Personal sehr freundlich, Frühstücksbuffet war OK Lage sehr gut
Das Hotel war leider nicht besonders sauber. Wir mussten mehrfach darum bitten, dass unser Zimmer gereinigt wird, und selbst dann wurde nur das gemacht, worauf wir ausdrücklich hingewiesen haben. Zudem kam nicht täglich jemand zur Reinigung. Obwohl wir um frische Handtücher gebeten hatten, wurden diese nicht ausgetauscht, da sie nicht auf dem Boden lagen. Insgesamt waren wir mit der Sauberkeit und dem Service daher nicht zufrieden.
The views and location were great so easy to get around. very well organised. the breakfast was lovely and catered to my veggie partner :) the lady who seen to us was so so lovely and was so helpful it was just the best
La señora muy atenta y amable, la ubicacion inmejorable
Location and staff
Fantastic location with very friendly staff.
The room is clean and nice, the staff are very friendly and welcoming, and overall I recommend this hotel to others.
I liked everything.
The B&B was fabulous: clean, cosy, welcoming and in a lovely setting. The property was spotless and comfortable, and we really enjoyed our stay. The friendly atmosphere and overall feel of the place were lovely.
Our only slight negative was that we found some of the house rules and the way they were communicated a little strict. On arrival, we needed to bring a buggy to our room. As our child is autistic, the buggy is an important safe space, so we explained this and were allowed to bring it up, although it did feel a little uncomfortable having to justify it. Later, after being out at the fete, we brought some drinks back to enjoy in our room and were asked to drink some before coming inside in case of spills. We completely understand wanting to protect the property, but on this occasion we felt a little over-managed, which was slightly awkward as adults in our 40s.
We had a balcony room which had a fantastic sea view. The property was spotlessly clean and the breakfast had varied choices. Margaret and all her staff made sure every guest felt welcome and had everything they needed. I really can’t recommend enough.
There’s nothing we didn’t like.
Room was on the small side. Location was brilliant. Breakfast was ok. We realise that it was peak season, so was more expensive, but the images online implied a more modern hotel.
Room was clean but a little tired.
Location was perfect. Staff were so friendly and accommodating.
No chairs in room, no dressing table. This didnt spoil our stay.
Die Besitzerin war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend, hat uns einen sehr frühen und kostenlosen Check In ermöglicht. Das Hotel liegt direkt gegenüber des Strandes, tolle Lage. Das Frühstück wird frisch zubereitet und ist sehr lecker.
Es ist fast unmöglich, einen Parkplatz auf dem schmalen Bereich vor dem Hotel oder in der Straße zu bekommen. Zum nächsten Langzeitparkplatz sind es 10 Minuten zu Fuß und die Parkgebühr für 24 Stunden sind 12 Pfund. Leider haben die Zimmer keine Klimaanlage, da half nachts auch der Ventilator und das Fenster, was man nur kippen konnte, nicht.
Superb staff excellent breakfast amazing sea view location
Nothing i will be returning
The location was amazing
The parking wasn’t great
La posizione e la colazione
Nulla
Wonderful view from our bay window onto the coastline and beach. Newquay was a pleasant surprise. The Boathouse, harbour waterfront, offers street food from a collection small enterprises delivered to the table with a pleasant view. Went several times. The owner is very engaged and lives on site. Staff are very committed.
Location, proximity to the beach/restaurants. We were given a lovely sea view room. I was lucky with the parking too, managed to park on the property drive for the stay so no additional parking costs
This place reminded me of the old bed and breakfasts that my parents used to find for us to stay at while driving around. Beautiful guest house. Breakfast included. Was able to walk to the train station. Very close to town. The farmers market right across the street on the Saturday. The staff was great.
Central location close to town and beaches
The lady who served breakfast and cleaned rooms was so polite and attentive
need more water accessible
Breakfast was lovely, the guesthouse was immaculate, the staff were lovley , and we were rite by the beach ⛱️

This hotel is very clean and has ceiling fans, which are great for the summer. It’s located very close to the beach—less than a 5-minute walk away. Margaret, the owner, is extremely lovely and friendly, and her son is just as friendly and great to talk to. Therefore, I highly recommend this hotel
First of all I feel like a home. Very clean room,toilet,bed sheet basically everything. Breakfast was served freshly cooked. The host lady was very attentive towards her guest. She asked her every guest if we all are ok with everything. Overall it was excellent stay at this guest house. I will definitely recommand this guest house to everyone who visit to Newquay.
We were in 2nd floor at guest house and I found little bit difficult to carry a heavy luggage and bags to carry upstairs. We can't find car park in front of hotel thats why we have to park our car little bit futher from the address.
Hospitality
This property is a credit to the owners Owen and Margaret who have transformed it from what it was , a really great breakfast
Centralt läge, fick ett rum uppgraderat till rum med balkong. Väldigt trevlig personal. Mycket god frukost.
Sängen var bara 160 cm och lite väl hård för vår smak.
We liked the warm and welcoming atmosphere of the property. The owner was very friendly, helpful, and made us feel at home. The hospitality was excellent, and the guest house was comfortable and family-friendly. Our son really enjoyed his stay, which made our experience even more special.

Location to the beach and the heart of Newquay. Effortless check in. Super friendly hosts. Lovely breakfast spread and options.
Das Frühstück war ausgezeichnet und wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt im Gästehaus. Das Personal war sehr nett und freundlich. Die Lage ist fantastisch und die Aussicht auf die Bucht ganz toll.
It’s a beautiful place situated perfectly near Towan Beach.

Richiesta addirittura una caparra per eventuali danni. Ma stiamo scherzando?
Mooie grote kamer en tegenover het strand. Gastvrouwen en heer echt heel vriendelijk!
Ontbijt was beperkt. Moeilijk om je auto te parkeren. Het plaatsje Newquay is echt voor jongeren. In de avond drukte in het centrum met dronken jongeren.
Der Ausblick aus unserem Fenster war toll.
Goed verzorgd allemaal
Luidruchtige meeuwen ‘‘s nachts ;-)

Bellissima struttura in ottima posizione con panorama spettacolare, molto pulito e proprietario e staff gentilissimo
It was very clean & staff very friendly Only down side was it too hot in upstairs room.
Very clean, friendly staff, great location
Zimmer war sehr sauber, wir hatten auch einen Balkon mit wunderschönem Aussicht auf das Meer, das Bett war sehr bequem, ruhige Lage, das Frühstück war ausgezeichnet, der Kaffee hat sehr gut geschmeckt, sehr nette Bedienung
Only minutes walk to all the local shops and eateries. Very well appointed, clean and comfortable room. A delicious full English breakfast included.
There was nothing to dislike
The property is clean, comfortable, and situated in a great location. Everything you need—including pubs, restaurants, bus stations, and beaches—is close by. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming.
No complaints at all!
Owners Margaret &Owen, friend Kris (helped to find parking) and Breakfast server Michelle were great! Excellent Hospitality! Room was very clean and comfortable! Found other's reviews helpful.

Cannot fault this place excellent food excellent staff excellent hosts the best place that we have ever stayed at Keep doing what you are doing
Nothing the place was too good to be true
Breakfast was exceptionally good with a fantastic selection of breakfast products as well as a cooked to order breakfast. Margaret and Owen were the perfect hosts, both friendly and extremely professional .It felt like a home from home.
There was nothing at our accommodation that we didn't like except the fact that we couldn't stay any longer.
Exceptional breakfast!
Gentilezza e disponibilità della proprietà e dello staff, pulizia generale

choice food, friendly staff. really clean. close to the beach ⛱️
stairs not lift parking is a bit hit and miss
The location to Towan beach and the town centre was great, there was great communication when booking and throughout the stay. Staff were brilliant and made our stay really enjoyable.
The location was superb❤️ and the breakfast was excellent
Everything, the position of the guest house for beach and town centre, the staff and owners were polite, friendly and helpful nothing was to much trouble, and the breakfast was to die for, the beds were comfortable and we had the best night's sleep for ages we will definitely be staying again
La ubicación, el trato personal
Todo bien
The location was very central to everything the beach was just a few steps away the shops and restaurants were all very close. Breakfast was served in a very nice room with an excellent selection of traditional English or Continental selection and very plentiful. Our room was superb with a balcony with comfy chairs and an uninterrupted view of the see (room 9) The prices in the bar were very reasonable and much cheaper than in the town.
Nothing at all
Fresh and well kept value for money
Being woken up at 3.15am by someone heavy footed walking around
The location was great, right beside the beach and the town. The owner, Margaret, is lovely and so helpful. Breakfast was great and served by a very friendly lady. Would highly recommend it, and we will most certainly be back.
Nothing, all great.
Clean & well thought out
Would have like fresh milk in fridge rather than carton
We had a great time here. The owners were welcoming and friendly. They very kindly upgraded us to a sea view room, which was such a lovely surprise. The room was clean and comfortable. You can tell the owners genuinely care about their guests and want them to have the best experience. We really enjoyed our stay and would come back again. Thank you for your kindness and hospitality!

Staff food location
Brilliant location, Fantastic Staff so helpful and friendly. Clean and tidy. Shower was incredible. Breakfast was fresh and tasty, lots of options. Definitely be back again.
Really friendly owners and staff. Welcoming and accommodating. A great location close to the beach and the shops. We were lucky to get a great view from our room looking out over Towan Bay. There wasn’t enough parking at the hotel or street outside but public parking was reasonably priced and very close by. And a really good breakfast.
We were only there a couple of nights so have nothing to complain about. We went during the heatwave so if there was air con that would have been the cherry on top.
Fantastic location, staff were incredibly friendly and was a perfect place to stay to explore Newquay as it is right near the city centre.
Friendly host, perfect location, very good breakfast
We liked everything about the property!! The guest house is in an excellent location. Very convenient to the shops, beach, town , bus and train station. All only a very short walk away.
In pieno centro difronte a una spiaggia fantastica.
Le camere sono ai piani superiori, senza ascensore e ci si accedere tramite una scala ripida. Un po’ scomodo se si hanno valige grandi.
Struttura fresca, pulitissima e curata. Silenziosa, fronte mare e a pochi metri da una spiaggia immensa. Comoda ai negozi ed ai servizi. Parcheggi disponibili nelle vicinanze. Staff cordiale e cortese. Colazione ottima a scelta preparata in base alle richieste. Menzione speciale all' english breakfast. Super raccomandato. Ci torneremo.
The property is right at the centre of all the things you need to see. It is clean, comfortable and cozy.
The rooms are quite small but everything thing else is great.
Utsikten och frukosten, personalen.
Zentrale Lage in der Ortschaft und zum Strand. Eine sehr nette und hilfsbereite Gastgeberin, Danke!
