Had a great stay here today. The location is central and easy to find. On arrival I was shown around and given a friendly welcome from the owner. The room was clean bright and airy and had plenty of storage (not that I needed it ) after a long day the tv and wifi was very welcome and so was... More

We stayed for 3 nights in March 2012. Marc and Anne provide excellent service and are very friendly and welcoming. Penrose Guest House is situated very close to the town centre with ample parking on the road outside and easily within walking distance of the shops, tearooms, harbour and restaurants, which is very convenient. Our room was very clean with... More

We have just returned from a fantastic short break in Cornwall. Penrose Guest House was a wonderful base to enjoy our holiday... We stayed for a total of four nights and were impressed with the location (the B&B was close and convenient for road, rail and bus links). The room itself was clean and the bed was comfortable with good... More

We stayed for 3 nights in January 2012 and were delighted with the friendly service, clean and comfortable rooms and great breakfasts. The location was in easy walking distance from Penzance restaurants, shops, harbour and sea front. We would highly recommend this guest house to anyone visiting Penzance. More

It's our 2nd stay, and felt the Penrose deserved a review. The owners are friendly, rooms fresh, updated and clean, parking outside on the roadside is available, and it's very quiet at night. From tissues by the bed to a separate switch to turn off the bathroom fan, everything seems to have been thought about. It's a little gem. More

I stayed one night in Nov 2011, was extremely pleased with the accommodations and personal service. This B&B is only a 2 or 3 minute walk from the train or city bus station; very convenient. The Penrose would be my first choice on any future visits to Penzance. I made last-minute changes to my booking and I felt that the... More

The few negative reviews for this guest house seem unfair. The owners are very polite and professional, the bedroom / bathroom spotlessly clean, and the breakfast was great. The only grumble was a slightly chilly room during the night, but easily remedied with an extra blanket. I would highly recommend this guest house and this will definitely be my first... More

We stayed at the Penrose for 4 nights so that we could attend the final of this seasons performances at the Minack Theatre. I cannot speak to highly of the hospitality shown to us from start to finish by Mark and Ann. We were welcomed warmly and offered lots of advice and tips about places we wanted to visit throughout...

This is a small, cosy and quiet B&B only a 3 min walk from Penzance bus & train station. There are only 3 rooms – my wife and I stayed for 3 days in the family room (with a double and a single bed). Unlike the other 2 rooms, this one has no en-suite facilities, but straight across the landing... More

Great hosts and helpful information about the area. The place was spotless and the breakfast was great. Short walk from the train station and bus connections to the entire area. More
