What do you think makes a stay at The Greenbank Hotel unique?
The Greenbank Hotel is Falmouth's oldest hotel, dating back to 1640 when captains from The Packet Ships stayed between voyages. It is the only hotel in the south west with its own private pontoon, meaning pick-ups on the water right from their doorstep. Although it is the town's oldest hotel, everything inside oozes contemporary style, comfort and luxury. The Working Boat pub offers an additional dining option, established in 1876 and rebuilt in 2015. Enjoy delicious pub grub, Cornish brews and panoramic views across the picture-perfect harbour.
