Pros
Sea-view rooms with soundproof floors and tea/coffee facilities.
Complimentary Cornish breakfast served in-room.
Live music and quizzes hosted in the traditional pub.
Proximity to Penzance Harbour and Jubilee Pool.
Cons

Limited room options (only three rooms available).
“The Dock Inn strikes me as exceptionally well-situated, particularly for those heading to the Isles of Scilly; I appreciate that it's right across from the ferry. I also like that the rooms are above a lively pub, yet maintain a quiet, comfortable atmosphere. In-room breakfast, a definite plus, seems a particularly cozy touch, especially with harbor views.”
