Pros

- The pub dates back to 1819, adding historic character to the stay.

- Rooms are quiet despite being above a pub, with comfortable beds and good showers.

- The central location places guests within a 2-minute walk of restaurants, shops, and the cathedral.

- Friendly staff and a welcoming check-in process are noted by returning guests.

Cons

- No on-site car park; paid parking is available at nearby long-stay lots.

- The property does not serve breakfast or evening meals, and rooms are room-only.

“The central Truro location is a real asset, putting you steps from dining and the cathedral, and surprisingly quiet for its position above a pub. Rooms feel cared for, with recent updates and notably comfortable beds and showers offering excellent value.”
