St Moritz Hotel

Cornwall, United Kingdom

A multitalented modernist resort overlooking the Camel Estuary, the St Moritz Hotel has more can-do attitude than a team of cheerleaders, giving it a fantastic reputation among families of all ages. Whether you book into a stylish penthouse apartment or a child-friendly garden villa, you'll want for nothing: there's a Cowshed spa, activities galore and a buzzy restaurant and bar. The rooms are stylish and contemporary; the location's unbeatable; and, best of all, the staff are really, really nice.
