All was just ok, decor quite dated and water pressure awful. Could have done with a fan in the room as also v warm.
Location however is fantastic and free parking a bonus in the centre of Newquay.

Lots to mention really. Not idea for families or people that want an early night or a lie in. The Wetherspoons across the road is open till 1am and opens 9am so it’s noisy and the room was warm so having the windows open caused a lot of noise and road noise. The room was clean and the staff are helpful. The mattress wasn’t the best and we could feel the springs and my partner has awful nights sleeps. It’s rated 3star and I would agree and it wasn’t expensive for a weekend so it’s all relative really. Has parking which is bonus in Newquay and handy walking distance to everything.

When we arrived (at 8:30am - after a very early morning flight ) our best hope was to have breakfast and deposit our bags at reception - so you can imagine our delight when Kat (manager) arranged an early check in for us. We were so grateful.
The room was spacious and comfy and facing the road - and despite reading reviews about noise, we found the stay very peaceful.
We had breakfast and one evening meal there and both were good. The staff in the bar and restaurant are very friendly and helpful.
The outside facade looks a little tired - but don’t be put off - it’s an ideal
Location - close to everything - with lovely friendly service and super comfy rooms.
We will definitely stay here again.

This is the second time we have stayed at the Griffon Hotel, which is well established in Newquay, it was here when I lived in Newquay in the 70s, so it has stood the test of time. The staff are very friendly, and the breakfasts we had there were excellent. Although we didn't have an evening meal there, I have heard reports the food is very good.
The hotel is well situated in Newquay with the Rail Station close by. It has car parking facilities, a bar, restaurant, lift to the first floor.
We would be more than happy to return to the Griffon on our next visit to Newquay.

This was not one of our better Hotels that we stayed in.
The room was a reasonable size for the 2 of us...
The bed wasn't the most comfortable bed we have slept in.
The bathroom was a good size but unfortunately, we couldn't get any cold water in the shower....only hot and it would have scolded us if we used it.
We couldn't get anyone to look at it in the morning as reception wasn't open.
Breakfast was excellent although it didn't start until 8 ish and if you have a big day travelling it is a tad late.
Overall it was an OK hotel, but one I wouldn't come back to.

Great location as very close to the town & beach. Room was lovely but didn’t realise that it was above a very dated pub. Didn’t get much sleep due to outside noise most of the night (drunk people walking around outside). There is very limited parking spaces!

A room with a view or not if you like looking directly into the bedroom window of a travel lodge, slightly to the left you could see some sea and a beach so your curtains have to remain closed the whole stay. Went to turn the bedside table light on and forgot to say none to turn off and no plug to actually plug one in. Thought a shower would be good but a very trickle was not good. Sad on the edge of the bed and the mattress went flat to the base, ouch and the pillow was a sand bag. Best part of the visit was the breakfast , quick service ,nice hot plate and cooked fresh

Service friendly, room slightly dated but clean and comfortable. Great location and free parking is a bonus. Good value. Strangely there was no option to book a twin room including breakfast, whereas it was possible for a double.

The hotel has a convenient location, excellent free parking. The staff were sociable, helpful and polite.
The hotel gives you everything that you need including a fabulous cooked breakfast. This is not The Ritz but it doesn't claim to be. The Griffin is a good, honest value for money hotel and I'd recommend it to anyone.

Central location in Newquay for pubs shops and beach..... Age has affected the rooms but for the price including breakfast(which was spot on ) one cannot argue. Staff extremely friendly only small gripe... We were in front facing room fairly noisy at closing time..... Free parking on site... So will definitely return
