Overlooking the golden sands of Portminster Beach, Harbour Hotel St Ives is a four-star boutique retreat that pairs Cornish coastal charm with contemporary comfort.

Perched on The Terrace above Porthminster Beach, the hotel’s nautical styling and art deco touches create a relaxed, seaside-tropical feel just a short walk from the heart of town. Whether you are after a spa escape or a seafood-fuelled weekend away, the hotel’s beachfront position makes it an easy, scenic stroll from the harbour, galleries, and cobbled streets of St Ives.

Accommodation

The hotel offers 46 individually decorated rooms and suites, each finished with bold striped soft furnishings, seaside art deco prints, and a complimentary welcome gin.

  • Sea View Rooms: Many rooms look directly over Porthminster Beach and St Ives Bay, with some offering private balconies.
  • Double & Standard Rooms: Individually styled rooms fitted with 400-thread-count Egyptian cotton sheets, Bramley toiletries, and flat-screen TVs.
  • Suites: Upgraded options with extra space and the hotel’s best panoramic sea views.

Dining & Wellness

Guests can eat and unwind without leaving the building, from a seasonal seafood menu to a full-service spa overlooking the bay, making it a natural fit for wellness seekers.

  • Harbour Kitchen, Bar & Terrace: An ocean-view restaurant serving locally sourced, seasonal dishes, with signature plates including moules marinière, Harbour fish pie, and a home-made seafood burger.
  • The Bar: A relaxed all-day spot for cocktails, local ales, and wine, with Cornish cream teas served on the terrace.

Accessibility
