We chose to stay at the Regent as a result of reading of other peoples visit and we were not disappointed. It is not the most prepossessing of buildings and it is situated next to the small bus terminus. We were met by the owners, Keith and Sandi who showed us down( the property is built into the hill) to... More

Wow, we were so happy to have stumbled across this little hotel in St. Ives when we were there last week. The rooms were plain but clean and the views were absolutely stunning. We loved the owners, they were super friendly and wonderful to us and the breakfast they served was especially delicious - the best we'd had anywhere on... More

Many thanks for the great review and for your kind comments about us, the owners. I am particularly pleased that you enjoyed the Regent's breakfast menu, I take delight in preparing tasty breakfasts for all of our guests. And yes, the view is simply stunning, I have not tired of it even after 41 years. I am sorry to hear... More

Spectacular views from the rooms facing the harbour. Great location with parking. Clean comfortable rooms, with the best breakfast selections we've come across in the UK. Only issue we had was that the double bed seemed small ... my feet hung over the end. We didn't have this problem at other hotels/B&Bs. The mattress was also very soft and wasn't... More

Thank you for the positive review and for your valued feedback. I am glad to hear that you had a good stay with us at the Regent, we enjoyed meeting you and it was good to have your party as guests. I am sorry to hear that the bed did not quite meet your expectations however. Be assured it is... More

We have stayed twice before at the Regent during the last few years, and this excellent small hotel/B&B is still as great a place as ever. It is now firmly established as ‘our’ hotel in St Ives, great value for money and a place for relaxation. We wouldn't stay anywhere else. As before, we stayed in a large downstairs room... More

Came across it by chance and very glad I did - I wanted a room with wifi and a view of the harbour and that's exactly what I got, plus parking, a fabulous breakfast, cleanliness and friendly faces, just couldn't ask for more. It was my first time to St Ives and when I come again I won't look further... More

It doesn't look a great deal from the outside - old fashioned sign and next door to the bus station, but that does a disservice to an excellent B&B in a fabulous location. From the back the views over the town, harbour and sea are outstanding, if your room is at the front, there's a little sitting area that guarantees... More

Have been going to St Ives since 1983 with family, as a single traveller & with company & the view, service, cleanliness and friendliness of Keith and Sandi at the Regent has never wavered. Wicked breakfasts and parking sorted..all you need to do is go and enjoy yourselves. If you need to know anything..ask Keith..the Oracle!

My wife and I have just returned from a weeks holiday in St Ives. This is the second time we have stayed at the Regent and were not disappointed. Whenever I see a photo of the hotel frontage, I think that it doesn't do justice to what is inside. It looks fine from the outside, but the inside is much... More
