Personally I am not in the least surprised that this hotel has closed. While we have never actually stayed there we are frequent visitors to the islands ande whenever we went to St martins would stop at the hotel for coffee, lunch, tea and have even been there for dinner. However last summer we found the place much changed, the... More

.....this hotel has sadly closed and the business is being liquidated. It is possible that someone will buy the lease and reopen later this year but this is by no means certain. This move follows the closure of the only pub on the island and the ending of the helicopter service to the islands last year. Unless something is done... More

As a potential wingco type ( I actually am not one) I have stayed at this hotel on and off for the last 25 years. I can appreciate a one- off traveller thinking it is a bit of a club but what do you expect when 80% of the visitors are like me regulars who enjoy the location, food ,... More

We have been visiting Scilly for many years and still feel St. Martins and the Hotel is a special place. We love the informality of the Hotel and the whole experience and especially the Tean restaurant in the evening. Fine dining but not pretentious and nothing is too much trouble for the staff. I don't eat puddings but I always... More

We stayed two nights at the end of August 2012. A last minute arrangement following a rather wet week of camping (in a gulag according to my wife) on another Island. From start to finish the hotel was a pleasure to deal with, which made our stay thoroughly enjoyable and completely relaxing. The reservation office arranged all our transfers with... More

Thats until you see the union jack flag flying outside !! The location is perfect , right next to where the ferry drops you off :)... More

My fourth visit to Scilly but my first visit to St Martins on the Isle. The staff are attentive in an understated quiet way, nothing was too much trouble. The Hotel and the views are total perfection. Breakfast was varied, all tastes were catered for. We had dinner every evening and the food and service were superb. The Islands are... More

We have returned from a week's holiday at this lovely hotel. The location and outlook of the hotel has to be the best in the Scillies with wonderful views from the restaurant on the 1st floor and from our ground floor room. From the hotel, you can walk on to the beach in a few seconds and when arriving back... More

We travelled by air from Exeter and noticed that the flight did not land in St Mary's until after the scheduled boat was due to leave for St Martin's. All sorted by the hotel - a "special" boat was duly oredered and we shared the cost with another two guest. For those new to the Islands, you are taken from... More
