Burgh Island Hotel

Service and attention to detail was impeccable. Our room (classed as cosy) was the Jayne Marple room, although small it was filled art decor memorabilia. The staff were second to none, the evening meal at the Pilchard inn was superb. My partner was acting like a kid in a candy shop as this hotel experience was on her bucket list. Special thanks to Robert who transported us from the carpark to the hotel and our return to our vehicle via the sea tractor (which he handled with amazingly. Simon who met us on arrival with a fine glass of champagne and also many thanks to our waiter Nathan, who looked after us so intensively on our arrival. All in in all, it was an amazing experience.

A stunning experience. A magical place takes you back to the Art Deco era of the 1930’s. Black tie dinners, perfect cocktails, no TV and not missed. Proper champagne glasses and not flutes. Live music and amazing staff. We shall definitely return.

Everything it is billed to be. The interior art deco style transformed you to a golden age, which was done without being gauche. Black tie dress code for dinner elevated the experience beyond a standard dinner. Palm court bar and lounge were perfect places to enjoy a cocktail throughout the day. Loved the links to Agatha Christie.

What a special place this is. I would suggest that it’s a bucket list location. We travel very often and we’re very impressed with Burgh Island.

My husband booked this as a surprise for our anniversary and what a surprise. I love the art deco style, the hotel is wonderful, in a superb location. The staff were lovely, helpful, friendly and, as previously mentioned on another review, happy. Well run & hope Nicki gets a rest herself after sorting things out after recent events! You have a good workforce behind you who show excellent teamwork and stepped up to a challenge calmly and efficiently. Well done I'd be very proud of them (and yourself of course). I didn't want to leave and hope to return one day.

From the first contact with staff at the carpark on arrival to the last contact on departure they were simply fantastic. Friendly but professional at all times. I am really interested in the functioning of hotels and restaurants and believe that the way staff conduct themselves when not in the guest views really determines service and all the staff appeared so happy and enjoying what they did which radiated into the excellent service. Arrival at the hotel was lovely being personally briefed on the hot land provided with a glass of good champagne and a hot towel. I expect most people come for the Art deco experience and the buildings, furniture and ambience transported you back into the era. Despite being MARCH I was mad enough to fancy a swim in the sea pool. Not only were towels and robes provided reception switched on the sauna so that I could warm up after. On discovering I had braved the freezing water I was congratulated by one of the waiting staff who also liked to cold water swim. The food was superb at all times and a good selection of wine to enjoy. what more could you ask for sipping a classic martini dressed in evening wear listening to the small band playing I the ball room.
