Blue Hayes owner Malcolm Herring deserves all the plaudits that he gets - be they incredibly positive TripAdvisor reviews or great press coverage. His small hotel, with commanding vistas of St Ives, is a tribute to his vision a dozen or so years ago when he renovated a very tired old establishment and created one of (if not the best)... More

We have just returned from our second stay at The Blue Hayes which happened to be our first anniversary and my birthday! The hotel were aware of this as we actually had our civil partnership there last year which was amazing! We arrived to champagne on ice in our room, the treylon suite and a card from all the staff...

By any standard is Blue Hayes one of the best hotels ever. Coming back felt like coming home, and after holiday's last night and breakfast you would do anything to make your stay a bit longer. Fortunately there will always be the next time. A lovely and genuinely hospitable place, wonderful staff and all in all a stunning holiday experience.... More

This was our second visit and it met our already high expectations. Malcolm and his staff made us feel like returning friends even though we had previously only been for two nights eight years ago! They have only a few rooms but all are superb. Sea views from most, sheltered garden access for others. Big comfy beds in spacious rooms.... More

I have fallen in love with St. Ives and with Blue Hayes. A perfect retreat with the warmest of welcomes from the best hosts ever in Malcolm and Sue, they have truly thought of everything. From superb breakfasts, we took ours on our private balcony (Master Suite) to the immaculate decor. Just beautiful.

My wife and I and two friends stayed here recently and we were most impressed with the care and attention Malcolm, the owner, and his staff gave us during our two nights stay. The furnishings and decor are both immaculate and comfortable. The view of St Ives bay from the terrace is magical. The Blue Haze breakfast is a magnificent... More

We recently had our second trip here in 6 months and weren't disappointed. The excellent service and very high quality of rooms and location will surely draw you back too. This place is just perfect...the views, the breakfast, the peace and relaxation factor, the attention to every detail. Recharge your batteries here; enjoy the superb surroundings and soak up all...

We have visited the Blue Hayes for the last five years, I can honestly say that Malcolm and his team are the most attentive people I have ever met, from the moment we step through the front door there is a very warm welcome and we are instantly relaxed. There is wall to wall luxury in every room, the food... More

After a gap of 6 years we returned to the Blue Hayes and we weren't disappointed. Malcolm and all the staff were very friendly and attentive. My Wife even had a Birthday card and a bottle of Champagne waiting in our room on arrival. We were in the Master Suite which was fantastic. The views from the room were breathtaking... More
