Eliot House Hotel in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Booked in for Sunday roast,but on arrival was told run out of cauliflower cheese and parsnips! No apology or discount given.

Used the function room only but was very good service, clean and friendly.

Great for a conference, meeting or party

Never stayed played bingo there under new management very friendly people

My partner and and i stayed at the eliot hotel, delighted with the service, nice room, great breakfast, highly recommend the accommodation, very friendly staff, will be going there again.

Super nice staff, personally prepared breakfast, no buffet.

Great service from attentive staff who couldn't be more helpful.

We had a great night,staff were brilliant,and breakfast was lovely 👍

Fantastic service, clean room excellent breakfast and if you book for the Sunday carvery you won’t be disappointed or left hungry!

5 stars all around service nice people very relaxing we will be staying again nothing is too much bother for the staff lovely rooms

This is a grand old building & it is showing it’s age the grand staircase was beautiful but the carpet on it was filthy that was the first indication of what’s to come some of the rooms have noisy toilet that sound like jet engines the shower was awful couldn’t have a decent shower only wash my hair to much furniture crammed in to small rooms bed was like sleeping on wood so hard I had back ache for whole stay the rooms need gutting & a refurbish get rid of wood hip it doesn’t cover the cracks. The breakfast was however the highlight of the stay the scrambled eggs were the best I have had in a long time shame the stay was marred by the rooms

Stayed Tuesday to Sunday. Lovely place to stay with friendly staff. Very clean. Great food. Would definitely stay again.

This hotel can provide an excellent meal which has lots of choice of food in the menu. the service is quick.

Had my daughters wedding evening reception here and they could-ed have been moor helpful really nice staff and owners

Très mauvais choix, la fausse note du séjour. Discothèque qui fait raisonner les basses dans tout l hôtel ! A en avoir mal aux oreilles. Encore plus difficile avec des enfants en bas âges. Chambres vieillotes, petit déjeuner concocté avec des produits industriels. Adresse à éviter !

Beautiful fillet steak the knife glided through the steak as if it a hot knife through butter! The presentation was lovely and amazing taste. Great service and a good price. Couldn’t fault anything thank you for a wonderful meal

We stayed at the Eliot House for 4 nights recently and would stay there again. Derek made our stay memorable because he truly cares about his guests. The breakfasts were delicious, hot and promptly served. I would stay there again and recommend it to anyone staying in the Liskeard area.

We recently had a family event held at the Eliot House Hotel. Derek and his Staff could not have been more helpful, or supportive during what was for us a difficult time. The spread that was laid on for us was excellent, with all that had been requested served up in abundance. Thank you.

We have used the Eliot on a few occasions now. Derek is a lovely chap and a great host. Ideal place for that special occasion or just a get together.

We attended last night for our surprise Ruby Wedding Anniversary party. Made to feel very welcome by Owner & all the staff. Great venue, absolutely delicious buffet with plenty to go around & great variety. All family & friends also felt relaxed & all enjoyed a great evening from aged 2 years to 82 years. Thank you. This is the second time within a few months we have visited Eliot House Hotel - last time we had a lovely sit down meal in the restaurant.

Bit of a mixed bag, this one. Clean, friendly, welcoming, good service. Food, it has to be said, is variable. I've eaten there many times in the past three years or so, and have had some excellent meals, notably the salmon with dill sauce. They do a lively turkey curry and the simple ham, eggs and chips is a good standby, with good quality ham and nicely fried eggs - but, sadly, the ubiquitous bagged frozen chips. The daily roast is decent, served with generous portions of varied vegetables - not just the same old peas and carrots. On the negative side, it is not unknown for them to run out of things, and if you have a post-prandial coffee it is likely to be instant.

Really good Sunday carvery with great choice, large and small portions, a wide range of vegetables and puddings. The service and value are really great too.

es wurde sehr viel serviert, vieles zum essen schon kalt, qualität so lala, bedienung überfodert....

Qué gran hotel! Hemos tenido nuestras cooperativas estancia aquí las últimas 3 semanas mientras emprendía un proyecto en Liskeard y el personal no podía hacer lo suficiente para ayudar durante nuestro tiempo aquí. Las habitaciones son estupendas, limpias y espaciosas, las camas son muy cómodas y el desayuno es increíble (cocinado). El personal es genial, el chef lleva tiempo para personalizar los pedidos, el bar funciona bien. Funciona wifi en algunas habitaciones, pero creo que esto es poco mejorados.

Nos alojamos aquí por una noche mientras trabajan en la zona.

Celebrated 40 th wedding anniversary here , excellent service from all the waiting staff. Good hot food at reasonable prices

This carvery takes place in a hall used for dancing, weddings and other functions. This means it is not cosy or comfortable. The majority of customers are elderly and this means the meat is over cooked as this is how they tend to like it.

We were recommended to try the Sunday carvery and were not disappointed, having small appetites we chose the " children's " portion and were more than well fed. Puddings are very expensive so we declined, not particularly impressed by the few plates of desserts that went by our table considering the cost of them. Delicious coffee and lovely staff. All in all we will be back.

An old fashioned building, but nicely renovated with old pictures of the town in the bar area. Local's still frequent the bar, which gives the place a homely feel. The boss can be seen wandering around talking to customers at all times of the day. The food is excellent, the portions very generous and the service is outstanding. Worth visiting in the evening or on Sunday lunch time for a carvery. Prices are very reasonable.

It has convenient parking. We came here in, I think, November for a gathering after a funeral. We were treated. Dry well. The food was straightforward, possibly because that may have been what the family ordered. The staff were polite and considerate. But the place does not have much going for it. I doubt I would chose it for a meeting or an event.The listing could do with a few photographs to show how it looks inside and out.

I was invited to attend an evening 'Thank You' event in the Restaurant.The food was superb and the service excellent.If you are planning a part, meeting lunch or dinner or even a Christmas Party, I strongly recommend trying the restaurant out. You will not be disappointed.

We drove down from Swindon for an impromptu weekend. Because of traffic we were going to arrive outside their 9pm cutoff for checking in. After phoning ahead to inform, the polite person at the end of the phone assured us there wasn't a problem and enquired whether we would be eating on our arrival!When we eventually arrived the friendly young man showd us to our room.We chose a superior room... WOW... the size of the room was the size of similar small suites we have stayed in!The overall decor may not be to everyones taste but if you like traditional/oldy woldy then it is more than exceptable. We loved it :)All the staff are VERY nice/conversant and knowledgable when asked about local places/things to do.Derek the owner is a character and half and sat with us whilst we had a night cap.The breakfast was also very good and we gave our thanks to the chef.We are looking to return with our children for another weekend.Highly recommend.

Sunday Carvery is served in the Stark white room. It feels a bit like a school dinner, but the food was nice and the place was clean. Thanks

The carvery offers a great selection of meat and a wide choice of vegetables. All stunningly cooked. The staff were attentive and helpful and we did not have to wait to get our food. Our only concern that whilst this is advertised as a carvery you can not help yourself - it is all plated for you - after your meat is carved the server then goes along the units and asks what you would like. I do not have a problem with this as I was given exactly what I requested but I do like to choose my own potatoes (that is my preference!). I am presuming that this type of 'carvery' reduces waste as people tend to put less on their plate when served (which I feel is a good thing as I hate to see people loading plates of food that is then left) and also is food is not contaminated by others who have stood over it! I will certainly eat here again - great value for money and great service.

The menu is not exciting compared with many, some may find the ambiance old-fashioned. But the essentials of quality and service are hard to beat and the food is obviously prepared by a chef with skill who really cares. You don't need Heston or Michelin to tell you when food is good. Just sample the syrup sponge - light, perfect texture, and never a sign of being anywhere near a microwave as is often the case with reheated deserts which then develop the tell-tale bitter or burnt undercrust. The mains were also excellent and the proof of the pudding is that we would happily eat here again. What's more, the prices mean it's great value for both drinks and food!

Eliot House Hotel offers one of the best Sunday carveries in east Cornwall. You can choose between beef, pork, or lamb, (or some of each!), and the vegetable selection is superb. You end up with very little room left on your plate!For the smaller appetite you can have a smaller plate, which is excellent value at £5. There is a great deal of attention to detail from genial host Derek Gilbard.We find ourselves going back increasingly frequently, even though it involves a 20 mile round trip.If you can, arrive early (12 noon) to avoid queueing and be served with food at it's absolute peak. If you haven't been before, a treat awaits!
