Burgh Island Hotel Devon & Cornwall

Stunning Island location. Beautiful views and walks. Hotel: Art Deco ambience. Tired & flaking plaster and paint, poor condition decoration and furniture in room. Old does not have to be worn out and broken. Needs refurb. Not fine dining, food just ok. Staff were attentive and friendly. Overcharging greatly for a simple bottle of beer or bottled water is a poor show and does not leave a good impression. Overhead showers were around in the deco period but not here. Internet was good but only a radio provided that did not work very well. I believe there is an intention to refurbish the hotel further, it badly needs this to be done before charging five star prices for a three star.

My Mum had a wonderful time for her 60th birthday. We were disappointed not to arrive by tractor, understandable given we stayed one night and it's dependent on the tidal times. Arrival was lovely. Some staff friendlier than others, we heard about some sort of argument that caused staff to leave. We waited 30 mins after the check in time to go to our rooms, we had asked to be told it was ready but I think they forgot. When we got to the room it hadn't been set up for three even though the hotel was aware. Room was wonderful, champagne and chocolates a lovely and special welcome. Cocktails and canapes delightful. The ballroom was lovely, wonderful dinner. Waitress was overly false. Atmosphere and food amazing. Sadly due to weather we were asked to leave early, an early breakfast was put on and off we went. It was a lovely night, very special for my Mum, just a shame there wasn't any compensation or something nice when there was an error or a let down.

This break to burgh island was my 60th birthday gift from my boyfriend

Four of us were celebrating a special birthday for my sister-in-law, and we took her school friend along as well. Two nights at Burgh Island was perfect. The staff were all amazing, the food outstanding, the d cor delightful Art Deco, the trio were great playing 30's music on the second evening, and even the weather was good! A memorable stay, and mission accomplished, all at a reasonable price!
