January 2025
Room was very spacious, clean and comfortable with 2 armchairs. An ironing board, hairdryer were supplied. The bedding was clean and fresh and maid came every day to tidy up, supply dry towels, loo rolls etc. Plenty of points for chargers etc. Lovely view across the meadow. Ensuite shower room also spacious. The his and hers basins were inset into a surface so there was room for cosmetics etc to sit close by. The basins were set too high for me at 5ft tall - must have been installed by a 7ft giant! But overall the accommodation was great. The only disappointment was the restaurant and bar area were still not fully open. The hotel could be more than excellent if the restaurant and bar could be fully staffed and open. But I realise that is difficult these days. The location is stunning and unique.
Just the fact the bar and restaurant areas were not properly open. You could order breakfast in the restaurant, but it was not open for lunch or dinner. The restaurant has superb views, so that was a disappointment and meant you always had to go out looking for snacks and meals. That is no big deal, unless it is bad weather.

It is difficult to review the Dolphin as it is in the process of being modernised. Our twin room, which we were probably the first to occupy, was clean and spacious with an excellent bathroo, including a large walk-in shower. The staff were universally pleasant, and the chef came in on Boxing Day to make us breakfast. There was no restaurant or bar, which was not a problem as we were spending most of our time with family in St Ives. The Dolphin is situated on the banks of the river, just over the bridge from the town. It is a lovely situation in summer.

Fantastic room, Newly refurbished and a great view of the river. We were greeted warmly by Seetsa who was so helpful. It was spotlessly clean and very comfortable and in a quiet location. There is a lot of renovation going on so some areas of the hotel are closed off at the present time.
Breakfast was disappointing. We were greeted by a person with a dirty cloth in his hand. We had pre ordered our breakfast on a request sheet and an allocated time but it was self service, our friend ordered vegan sausages and I had ordered scrambled eggs and we had to request them again. I had to ask for milk for the cereal (which wasn't very nice) the bread for toast was dry. We were staying for 2 nights so opted to go elsewhere the second morning even though we had paid a total of £40 for 2 days (£10 pp)

Beautifully recently refurbished room. We had a stunning view across the fields and river. Room had most things we needed. Fantastic location for visiting St Ives. There is work being carried out and it is clear to see that this will be a stunning venue when completed. The room we were allocated was well away from building work so there was no disruption for us. The one staff member we encountered was incredibly polite and helpful and made us feel welcomed
A few minor things that would improve the room. Small side lights by bed. The main light was obviously new and lovely but is incredibly bright. A side light for reading would be good. A mirror in the main room. There is only one in the bathroom and one in the main room would be useful.

Service! We were welcomed in the reception by Seetsa. What a lovely, warm and yet professional welcome it was. If it wasn’t for Seetsa I would give this hotel much lower rating. He went above and beyond to help. Seetsa is so professional and polite and his attention to detail is exceptional. That’s what we need in this country, especially in hospitality industry- professionalism with some personal touch and lovely manners. Thank you for everything, Seetsa!
Comfortable bed, the size of the room, views from my room.

Great location right by the river and a short stroll over the bridge to the town centre. Plenty of free parking on Hotel property
Bad smell in the room supposedly from a previous shower leak. It smelt like cat or dog pee to us! It was a no pets room(room 64) They offered a room change but only had twins. A cleaning staff member scrubbed the smelly patch of carpet with bleach and it stayed fresh for a day but smell came back. Towels had a smell of fry ups (must be stored by the kitchen)

This was our second visit, and we honestly really like it here. Always clean and comfortable. Staff are super friendly and helpful. The bathroom was nice, the shower was large and the water was hot with good pressure. The room itself was a nice size, comfy bed and nice pillows. The location is perfect and the views are stunning!
There isn't a bar or restaurant currently but I believe its due to open in the coming weeks. Would have liked a few more Teabags and milk.

Excellent room, bed was comfortable, the Bathroom was exceptional
I slipped on the Temporary Ramp from reception to the car park which was extremely wet and slippery, ended up falling heavily and cutting my right hand cheek and forehead which swelled up ( in the morning i had a black eye) The ramp was made from pation decking and had no anti slip surfaces, or nosings, the staff did later put sand or salt on the ramp surface

Good size room with large comfortable bed, wardrobe, bedside cabinets and storage drawers. En-suite well equipped with decent shower. Clean and newly redecorated. Excellent location just across the old river bridge from the main St Ives town centre which has plenty of cafes, eating places and small shops.
Somewhat utilitarian. The hotel is in the process of being refurbished and in the summer there should be a nice riverside terrace and bar open… but it’s not there yet!

Room and partial view
Look of hotel, from outside it looked closed and derelict, not as per website. Hotel only partially open due to previous being used to house refugees, not stated when booking. Room was not one I booked as hotel going thru refurbishment, not made aware Felt at present NOT value for money, SHAME, was looking forward to it. Room otherwise clean and good
