Stayed 2 nights having looked at a number of other hotels and B&Bs in the St Ives area, all of which were simply too small and too expensive for what they were. Overall good value, lovely staff, good food. We had the Laura Ashley room (room 2?) which was a good size and very comfortable. Only issue was wifi not... more

Reading the Garrack website you would think you are in for a fantastic staycation. You're not - it is damp, dirty and needed decorating years ago. While the staff are friendly and efficient the resturant produced some of the worst food I've ever eaten and at Michelin Star prices. This hotel should NOT be in the Johansen Guide more

The rooms were little better than a travel lodge type. View was of the sea and also the staff smoking area, unofficial. Hotel generally needs total refurb and repaint externally, first impression on arrival in car was poor. Very dissappointed, cant understand how its in Best Hotels of The World and other leading guides. more

The Garrack is beautifully located with a garden overlooking St. Ives and the Atlantic. Spacious rooms, will need some refurbishing in the next years.

I have stayed in many hotels throughout the country but not one has come close to this!

The standard of the room was excellent with fantastic views over St. Ives. The bed was large and comfortable... more

As a family, we like to enjoy short hotel breaks across the UK and we are members of a loyalty scheme of a well known hotel chain whom we won’t promote here. Having stayed at 4 and 5 star hotels frequently both on business and pleasure, it is fair to say that we have experienced many of the elements which... more

A lovely location, a little bit out of the town, but views to die for. And the breakfast was wonderful - recommend the berries!!!! more

We were in St Ives for a concert so only had one night here for bed and breakfast. Generally it was a good experience. The Garrack has nice grounds with lovely sea views. The hotel is clean and most of the staff helpful and pleasant. The breakfast was freshly cooked and excellent. One nice touch was that they ran us... more
