Recent stay at The Falcon

We have just had a lovely stay at The Falcon. The hotel is spotless and beautifully kept. All the staff are amazing and most helpful. We had a bedroom on the front with a canal view. The only down side to this is that it was quite noisy. It is on the main road into the town and next to a pub. The food and gardens are great and we look forward to visiting again at some point.

Weekend break in November.

On a short weekend break my wife and I found The Falcon Hotel to be ideally placed on the Bude canal front, close to the beach and fine cliff walks. The staff were welcoming and friendly, the restaurant food and service excellent and our room impeccably clean and very comfortable. It was just a shame about the weather, but you can’t have everything! Should we return, we will certainly stay at The Falcon.

Renovations

I think that guests should be made aware that the hotel is undergoing renovations, which is a good thing. However there is scaffolding for painters and they are able to see into the rooms. Also there is no bar, and a restaurant is closed. Staff are particularly helpful especially the receptionist.

Poor restaurant

Hotel was lovely but the restaurant service for dinner was poor, we waited well over an hour for dinner, and when it arrived it was well over cooked and not nicely presented. They did give us 2 free drinks and my meal was knocked the bill.

Unfriendly receptionist

The hotel and location were fantastic.. I enjoyed my stay. The breakfast was also really good. I was really disappointed with the receptionist who was very unprofessional and unfriendly. I arrived a 2pm to check in and the receptionist told me that I couldn't check in until 3pm. She did not offer to keep my bags or recommend anywhere I could go to wait. I then went to wait in the bar area. I checked my email and it clearly stated that check in was as at 2pm! So I went back to her and politely asked if I could check in if the room was ready. She responded unkindly saying "sorry, we can't check you in earlier than our check in time". I then asked if the room was ready and if she could make an exception. She responded, "No, ALL the rooms are currently NOT ready, non of the rooms are ready!". Clearly that's a lie! So I showed her my booking confirmation which clearly stated 2pm - and then she said because I didnt book directly, I cannot check in early!! what?! So I asked to speak with the manager. The manager came and radioed the house keeper who clearly said all rooms were ready! Then the receptionist gave me the key! This was clearly a power trip and I felt discriminated against. Especially then seen that other guests had checked in.. I wondered if it had anything to do with the way I look.

The hotel was clean and spacious with large, bright rooms. We were greeted with kindness at every turn and made to feel very welcome. The breakfast was excellent, and we loved looking out onto the small river/canal that ran in front of the hotel. The garden out back and the extra sitting areas were a wonderful bonus. A lovely spot for sure.
