The booking system was very straight forward and easy. Upon arrival, the receptionist was most welcoming and friendly. Her personality gave the impression that this was a family run hotel and she was keen to ensure that we enjoyed our stay. Our room exceeded our wildest dreams! We had a commanding view over the bay, a balcony with table and chairs, enormous room with king size bed as well as a spacious en suite bathroom with double basins, shower and bath. Breakfast was excellent, superbly fresh with helpful service. Very easy to find the hotel, good car parking facilities and very close to the town centre and railway station.

Overall: Excellent. We shall certainly recommend the Porthminster to friends and business colleagues.  (107746833)

We absolutely loved The Porthminster hotel. It has lots of charater and was definately our sytle of accommadation. Views are stunning and service was at a good standard. We were actually surprised how nice our bedroom was, just being a standard double room which we stayed in.

An addition which could have been made, having flannels/face cloth in the bathroom. Parking facility could have been better.

Why do we publish ratings from Active Hotels?

Our rating system is designed to give you the confidence to find and book the hotel that best suits your needs. We've worked hard to create a fair and impartial process to collect our ratings so you can always be assured of a great hotel experience.

How do I add a rating?

Unlike other sites that offer ratings, our rating process is by invitation only. This ensures that 100% of the ratings you see on our site come from guests that have booked online with us and stayed at the hotel in question.

All our ratings are created by guests who have booked through Active Hotels (or its sister sites) and completed their stay over the last year. We don't edit, alter or adjust the ratings so you can be sure of unbiased opinions.

How do you manage to collect so many ratings?

48 hours after departure from your accommodation booked through Active Hotels or any of our sister sites, you may be invited to complete a guest review questionnaire. This means that, for most hotels, we're able to post more than 1 guest rating every single week. We currently display over 70,000 ratings and we add hundreds of scores from real guests every day.
