Fabulous town, it’s got culture, it’s got architecture, it’s got a great rugby club, it’s got a busy harbour’ it’s got great cafes and restaurants, a stunning promenade and a lot more besides!
Check out what’s going on at The Acorn Theatre which is brilliant.
For a shortish trip see what’s on at The Minack. Best beaches are Sennen, Porthcurno, the Lelant ones, the St. Ives ones, Hayle Towans and Praa Sands. Perranuthnoe beach is good at low tide.
Go to St Ives by train - the view from St Erth into St Ives is breathtaking !

Glad we got tickets for the Minack Theatre and explored the Gobal Telecommunications Museum, took the Coaster bus several tiimes, including to Land's End and walked the Coastal path to Sennen. Enjoyed the Penlee art gallery, especially in the midst of reading "Summer in February." Enjoyed a meal at the oldest pub, and at the Longboat Inn. The staff at the Info Centre were the best - gave us so many tips and set us on the right buses.

i like walking on the promenade, along to Newlyn, took the Mounts Bay coast path to Marazion, took the bus to Trengwainton gardens- lovely to see the magnolias, rhododendrons and camellias - interesting walks round the gardens and a lovely cafe with friendly staff and good food.
Visited Trewidden gardens by bus and also took the train to St. Ives- a lovely scenic run along the coast.
Penzance town has a nice selection of shops and it is worth exploring the back streets and the area round Chapel street. On previous visits have been to the Morrab gardens and other parks. Penzance is easy to walk round, has a good bus service and the tourist information staff are very knowledgable and helpful.

Went in the end of February, it was a quiet time with everything closing by 10pm, and last buses leaving early, but it's just as lovely if not more so as any other time of the year could be. Even for hiking, if you get ready for the wind, the rain, the fog, the mud and the cold.

We came in February so not very busy.
We came in February so not very busy. Many places to walk around, lovely garden in the center of town. Great beach, St Michael's Mount very close by. St Ives also not far away. Great place as a bae to see Cornwall.
Josh is an extremely friendly and helpful host. He gave us a lot of insider advice as to what to visit in Penzance and also in Brighton (where we had a blast in Snooper's Paradise!). During our stay, he always made sure that we have everything we needed. The hotel is well-located and the rooms are comfortable and equipped with everything that one might require. The breakfast room is neat and offers a variety of healthy options, including fresh fruit.
A really stylish boutique hotel that I booked last minute, It's really quirky and cool, and comfortable, and the location is superb right in the centre. The restaurant was fabulous and really great value for the quality of the food served. The staff were really friendly and efficient and were extremely professional. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would recommend the residence to anyone visiting Penzance
The Stanley is perfectly located for the ferry and was literally a 2 minute walk. There was plenty of parking nearby where we were able to park our car for the week. The breakfast was really lovely and will last you through till lunchtime. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. If we find ourselves once again getting the ferry from Penzance, we would not hesitate staying at The Stanley.
A lovely light, airy and comfortable house in the perfect location for both the seafront and the town. Great welcome gifts to ease you into your break after the drive to this wonderful part of Cornwall. Less than 5 minutes to the promenade, 1 mile walk to Newlyn, 10 minutes walk past the town gardens into Penzance centre. Fab rooms, fittings, furniture, shower and attention to details.
Bay Lodge B&B in Penzance is a good base for exploring the SW Cornwall area with on-site parking. Very good full breakfast along with very friendly and helpful owners. Rooms are small but comfortable. No sitting room other than the dining area means it is not the place to hang out. But lots to do close by – by foot, bike or car.
Clean hotel with character and good location in the centre of Penzance.
Staff were friendly and helpful. They stored my bag until the evening when I checked out.
Vegetarian breakfast was adequate.
Bar wasn’t serving food when I stayed. Wasn’t an issue as plenty of places to eat nearby.
I liked the hotel and would stay again.
We stayed here as a stop before going over to Marazion.
The view was great. We also had a fabulous dessert that evening. We also asked for a room change due to stairs, and they accommodated us immediately and helped with luggage. This is a typical, old European hotel, but was clean and met our needs.
The hotel location was good to travel, via public transport ( like I did during my whole trip ), to different interesting locations, around Penzance and the whole south of Cornwall. A good walking distance to the town center. I'd stay again there as I am thinking of my Summer Holidays now !!!
I loved the Gulval location - on the edge of Penzance, easy to walk to the centre of town, but a real village atmosphere. Friendly staff, popular pub but not noisy at night. We walked to the Tremeneere sculpture park (lovely, but I think it's more than the three miles they say on the sign).
Nice boutique hotel with smiling staff and great food. Actually this was the first hotel that freshed up our room when the tag was out on the doorhandle. The bathtube was a bonus and good wifi made our stay just perfect. Definitely visit the Thai Moon restaurant next door as well.
The hotel was contactless check in, Which was explained well on prior to check in. The room was very well presented with beautifully folded towels on the bed. Our breakfast came bang on 8am every morning as promised and the hotel was in walking distance to Penzance harbour.
Wonderful staff, amazing view and completely new renovated rooms. The Ship Inn and the town are both absolutely lovely places to stay - and less hectic than the main "downtown" part of Penzance. Highly recommend this Inn.
The hotel is super lovely. The location is great, very close to the Penzance train station. It has fantastic views and high-quality food. Stuffs there are super friendly and kind. highly recommended!
Staff is very responsive to our requests. Very clean and basic accommodation. Located right next to the promenade of the Penzance beach with plenty of restaurants within walking distance.
