The Esplanade has it all at sensible prices, nice rooms, great staff, excellent food and best of all it commands stunning views of Fistral Beach and beyond. This hotel will be my first port of call next time I'm down that way knowing that the consistency is guaranteed throughout the season.The only slight downer is the distance from Falmouth centre and a bus service that's a bit erratic, otherwise no complaints.

This is an ideal place to stay if you are a family looking for a beach holiday as it's situated right on the Fistral Beach which is known for the best surfing in the country.
The hotel is clean, airy, comfortable and a lovely friendly vibe to it. There is a small indoor pool and play area for younger children and an outside play area at the back.
It's only a 10-15 minute walk into the town and there are some lovely coastal walks around the area with stunning views.

We stayed as part of a 2 night (Xmas) organised coach trip.
Really nice decor, lovely clean spacious room and although at rear with no sea view, the small balconies over-look the adventure park and would be ideal for parents to watch children from here.
The spacious front lounge area of Hotel great for relaxing, providing spectacular views over- looking Fistral Beach and the numerous surfers (!) literally a stones throw across the quiet road the Hotel is located in.
Extremely friendly, helpful staff, excellent food, restaurant staff presented a speedy efficient service and though busy bar queues kept to a minimum.
Unfortunately one night's entertainment was dire (!) however we found the only nearby pub, was a scenic 20 min walk from hotel. Pub was situated on cliff edge, lovely atmosphere & picturesque views, would not recommend walking here in dark, unless you take the much longer route, (v good local taxi service available though).
We did not use the spa & pool facilities, as we didn't have time, but it did look very welcoming with a variety of treatments available.

My wife and I stayed at the hotel on a five day, Turkey & Tinsel break, as part of an organised coach holiday. We found the facilities excellent as was the food. Our room was at the back of the hotel, and did not have a very good view but, as we only used it for sleeping etc.it wasn't a problem. We found all of the staff very pleasant and helpful, especially the YOUNG waiters/waitresses in the Dining room. They gave a very efficient and rapid service. The buffet breakfasts were really good and had plenty of choice ,Hot or Cold.
If this is the usual standard offered, we would certainly recommend it and would stay there again.
