Hotel Review
The Atlantic, St Mary’s, Isles of Scilly
Stay at this quaint waterside hotel with unrivalled harbour views on the largest of the inhabited islands of the Isles of Scilly; The Atlantic sits at the water's edge, overlooking St Mary's harbour and Town Beach. Part of St Austell Brewery's pub estate, the centuries-old maritime-style inn fuses laidback comfort with traditional charm; at the hub of Hugh Town, it's an ideal base for exploring St Mary's and the neighbouring islands. Home to comfortable and contemporary rooms, along with a restaurant and sun terrace that gives you a front row seat to the spectacular coastline - it's a prime position, just two-minutes' walk from the bustling quay where you can pick up boats to the rest of the Scilly Isles.

Style & Character
Suited to those after a comfortable and low key base, at the hub of the island with heritage at the heart. The maritime décor - particularly the black and white images of historic sailing vessels - adds lots of brilliant character to the walls.
