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!).

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

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.

Fantastic location with stunning views over the harbour. Only a few minutes stroll into the town and attractions. Friendly staff. The building is steeped in history and must have witnessed incredible sights over the centuries. As such the building is best described as quirky which enhances its character, far more interesting than a modern box. The room warm, clean and comfortable with a small balcony to take in the view. Well stocked complimentary tea tray in the room, along with a dog bowl and a dog treat box. Yes, the hotel is dog friendly! Having stayed several times previously, I can assume the restaurant dining was the same quality. Having a dog limited dining to the Working Boat Pub below, but again very friendly staff and good quality food. Fabulous views too. Having my dog with me resulted in breakfast being served in the bar with waitress service. Again good quality food and stunning views. The bar a very pleasant location for evening drinks with a wide range on offer. There is free parking on site, but would suggest reserving a parking space prior to arrival. The hotel is geared up to do this. If you are a boater, the hotel boasts its own jetty for you to moor up to whilst enjoying the offerings of the hotel. In my opinion, the Greenbank Hotel is the best hotel in Falmouth, certainly my favorite, and looking forward to returning again.
