For a place that claims to be a top 100 golf course, you’d expect the hotel rooms to match that standard—but unfortunately, they fall far short. The room I stayed in was the most outdated and uncomfortable I’ve ever experienced, feeling more like a budget stay than a premium one. I’ve had better nights at Premier Inns, which are far more modern and comfortable.
It’s surprising that while many hotels took the opportunity during Covid to update their rooms, St Mellion’s rooms have been left behind. It’s difficult to imagine staying here again because of this.
That said, the staff were friendly, the hotel was clean, and it’s clear they’ve invested in the gym and spa, which were great. But the rooms desperately need attention.
