'Most haunted'
The stay had potential to be lovely.
My issue is that nowhere on hotels.com does it state that the hotel is extremely haunted. However when you arrive at the property this information is shoved down your neck.
Staff were discussing people leaving toys for dead children, people reporting their necks being grabbed by 'ghosts'.
The most haunted has been filmed there and regular ghost hunt type overnight stays are promoted.
As a woman staying at this hotel on her own i felt very uncomfortable and if id known this information beforehand never would have stayed.
Unfortuneatly by time this information came to light (after i had checked in) the cancellation policy doesnt allow you to move without loosing all of the money paid.

A character Inn
A great place to stay. It's full of atmosphere and character. A must for the readers of Daphne du maurier's
book, Jamaica Inn.
The food was very good and I can recommend the breakfast. All in all a really nice place to stay.

Friendly and great overnight stop with a history
Room was great and bed very comfortable. We look out over the moor on a full moon night...loved it.
One con - the room was overheated and our radiator wasn't on. We had to take the duvet out of the cover to get some sleep.
Dinner and breakfast was delicious - lots of choice

If you want character & comfort look no further!
I had the most amazing 3-night stay at Jamaica Inn for my Birthday. The trip could not have been better and the accommodation was really lovely in rooms 27 & 28 on the first floor. The rooms were clean, warm and beautifully presented with nice toiletries provided.
Full English breakfasts and evening meals in the Restaurant were a treat and a good selection on offer catering for all dietary requirements. Plenty of cosy snugs and bar areas to sit, eat and drink.
The staff were exemplary, very kind, friendly and nothing was too much trouble.
Would thoroughly recommend Jamaica Inn for all the reasons above.

Another great stay
We have stayed here several times as we love the rooms, staff, atmosphere and food. Its always a must on our way to Cornwall or on the way back. This time we stayed in room 37 upstairs in the new part of the property as our usual room wasnt available. Room was lovely but on the small side with a double bed however good view over Bodmin moor. Ate in the restaurant the food is gorgeous and the staff cant do enough for you. Didnt sleep too well as the room was extremely hot and not used to sleeping in a much smaller bed. Breakfast was lovely and again delicious. Will definitely be staying here again

Great hotel
Stayed for our 20th wedding anniversary. Check in was quick and friendly, could have been a bit more informative about the hotel and where everything was, room was spotless, pillows where far to soft but personal preference, food was very basic but okay, alcohol and food prices where reasonable. Will definitely book again .
