Harbour Hotel St Ives

Set against a seemingly endless turquoise sea and just a short palm tree lined walk to the golden sands below, our Cornish beachside hotel and spa is a totally tropical retreat.

Standing grandly above the award-winning Porthminster Beach, soak up that vitamin sea from every aspect - your sea-facing room, seat at the bar and spot in the HarSPA.

For those craving a sea fix, most rooms come with sea views. Some come with private balconies. For foodies, the hotel's HarBAR Kitchen, Bar & Terrace restaurant serves fresh, locally-sourced and seasonal food, showcasing the finest regional dishes and flavours – and terrifyingly indulgent desserts. Signature dishes include Moules Marinere, Harbour Fish Pie, and a sumptuous home-made seafood burger. The hotel’s vibrant bar serves up a casual and contemporary all-day menu plus an inspired drinks list, featuring some of our favourite local brewers and distillers alongside our signature cocktails and an eclectic selection of wines.

For those seeking renewal and revival inside, the hotel’s luxury spa features four treatment rooms, a swimming pool, a hydrotherapy pool, a sauna, a steam room, an indoor relaxation area and outdoor sun terrace, and a fitness centre.

The most charismatic town in Cornwall, St Ives is a coveted seaside getaway. You’ll reach the town centre with just a few minutes' walk downhill from the hotel. The expansive Porthminster Beach puts the location on the map, but there are heaps of stunning coastal gems to discover just a stone’s throw from our hotel. Hayle and Penzance offer a change of scenery, and the world-famous Eden Project is under an hour away by car and well worth a visit.

Being so close to those Insta-worthy beaches, swell times are easy to come by for those who want to surf or try coasteering. For those who prefer to take it easy, the picturesque harbour, cute cobbled streets and the awe-inspiring Tate Modern are waiting to be explored.
