The Alverton
Town Hotel
Our Rating
9.0
The Alverton, a magnificent Grade II listed retreat perched on the outskirts of Truro city centre, welcomes guests to a beautiful oasis of history and laid-back luxury since 1830.
Once a Cornish convent, this enchanting hotel blends stunning original architecture—ivy-clad walls, mullioned windows, and breath-taking period features—with contemporary comfort, creating a romantic and welcoming haven amid manicured gardens and the gentle rhythm of Cornwall's capital.
The 51 individually styled rooms and suites marry classic stately home elegance with quirky, modern touches, many boasting original details preserved through time. The Courtyard suites elevate the experience with decadent roll-top baths, designer furnishings, and stained-glass windows, offering a sumptuous retreat where tradition and indulgence intertwine.
The Great Hall, an award-winning restaurant, serves exceptional cuisine overlooking pristine lawns, ancient beech and maple trees, and vibrant flora. Head Chef Ollie Wyatt's seasonal menus transform with the bounty of Cornwall, delivering unforgettable flavours crafted from the county's finest produce. On warmer afternoons, the suntrap terrace invites relaxation with signature cocktails or a classic Cornish cream tea in a setting of pure serenity.
The Alverton is perfectly positioned as the ideal base for discovering Cornwall's treasures. From Truro's historic charm, hop on a bus, train, car, or boat to explore the Eden Project's indoor jungles, ancient tin mines, the dramatic North Coast, National Trust gems, fascinating museums, and exhilarating watersports—while always returning to the warm welcome and tranquil luxury of the hotel on the hill.

Each classic room has a double or twin bed, desk, chair and ensuite. Some of these rooms were the servants’ quarters when the hotel was a prestigious private house, and others were the nuns’ bedrooms and offices from the previous century. You may find there are lots of stairs, or that the view is restricted, or there may be some minor noise from the working areas of the hotel. However each room holds its own specific charm – and they are all designed with comfort in mind, with four-star facilities.
