4-star hotels in St Ives

St Ives is a seaside town of narrow lanes, working harbour and sandy beaches, long loved by artists for its light and by visitors for its coastal walks and seafood. These 4-star hotels suit couples, families and walkers who want comfortable, well-reviewed rooms close to the water rather than hostel-style stays. Book a 4-star place early for summer and the school holidays, when the town is busiest; spring and autumn bring quieter streets, milder crowds and good walking weather, while winter offers a calmer, storm-watching kind of break.
