This is a beautiful hotel in every respect. The staff are helpful, friendly, efficient and cannot do enough for you. We absolutely loved the hotel with it's quirky architecture and beautiful restaurant and bar. The Duke of Cornwall Hotel is conveniently located a few steps away from the no 25 circular bus route which takes you to all the best places in Plymouth including the shops, Barbican, the Hoe and the stunningly vibrant sea front. We were in room 404, superbly appointed with handy 3 pin sockets everywhere, excellent flat screen TV with all the digital channels including radio, Wi-Fi which was reliable, fast and never dropped out which is astonishing for an old building with thick walls. We loved the side lights by each bed and conveniently placed light switches which meant you could operate all the room lights from your bed. The bathroom was compact, clean with a superb, powerful shower which did not fluctuate in temperature, lovely fluffy white towels and shower soap/shampoo which was helpfully provided by the hotel. The room was quiet with no noise from the traffic (a long way below) and the lift, although small, was always available when we called it and worked perfectly. We liked the fact that the room was towards the end of the corridor so we didn't have to tolerate other guests trudging past us. The room was so warm we had to leave the window open in the evenings. We were with a coach party and the meals were excellent in a beautifully decorated restaurant, and, despite the large number of guests, the food arrived quickly on piping hot plates and was of very good quality. Three course meals every evening and the breakfasts were perfect, good selection of cereals, fruits, pastries, fruit juices, tea coffee and water which you helped yourself to. I liked the marmalade/honey/chocolate spread dispensers where you could dispense exactly what you needed with no waste. The cooked breakfast was ordered via the helpful waiters/waitresses - good selection and poached eggs which were perfectly cooked to order. We absolutely loved every aspect of the Duke of Cornwall Hotel and will certainly stay there again the next time we are in Plymouth. 6
