We had stayed at the Victoria for Valentine's 5 years ago, and decided that it was time to return to Newquay. Upon both occasions, we had accommodation with Sea Views: because we are aware that street facing rooms are subject to noise from the adjoning Nightclub, at weekends. This visit lasted four days on the run up to Easter, and neither the town nor the Hotel, were busy. In our exerience, all staff, from check in at reception, to Porters and cleaners, were friendly and helpful.
The Catering has been leased to a local family, who run the Restaurant for both Breakfast and Dinner. (The evening meals are mostly French dishes). We enjoyed the food very much, and upon the first night, Chef came out to meet and chat with the guests. He also cooked an alternative Main Course for my wife one evening, when she didn't fancy any of the three Set Menu offerings. The indoor pool and Jacuzzi area are clean and welcoming, but time your visit carefully: as the pool is rented out during the late mornings most weekdays( Ladies Aquarobics), and again in the afternoons, for a children's swimming group.
We would not hesitate to return again to this delightful Hotel: with its' creature comforts, and superb views of the beach, and Newquay airport, in the distance.

I spent one night at the hotel Victoria (Midweek). The hotel is well past it's best with a dark and tired interior that is a long way off the prices being charged. The rooms have a poorly executed mock victorian look, which i am sure looked ok around 15 years ago, they are now showing their age.

There is a swimming pool in the basement, but is used by locals for childrens swimming lessons in the early evening, thus making it useless to those who are on business.

The gym is a joke, and looks more like the sort of thing you would find in someones garage after several visits to a boot fair!

Breakfast was ok, staff were ok.

Avoid this hotel it is not as described on their website.

Nothing special, decor out of date, mock victorian, rooms comfortable but watch for room at front as mega noisy due to night club and high street very noisy ALL night!

This was my first visit to Newquay -- and what a wonderful visit it was! The Victoria Hotel and it's design and furnishings was very pretty. The staff was friendly and very accommodating. The food was delicious and presentation was visually pleasing. The atmosphere at the bar was great -- the perfect place to enjoy a pint or two.
