I was only at Poppy's for one night in May,2013 but I received the warmest of welcomes, despite arriving quite late in the evening and a lovely, much-appreciated tray of tea and snacks was delivered to my room within minutes of my arrival. The comfortable bed assured an excellent night's sleep and the wide choice of breakfasts in the morning... More

My husband and I, along with 5 other college friends in other rooms, all stayed here for 3 nights while attending a friend's wedding in Plymouth. The location was great - just a short walk to the Barbican shops and restaurants as well as city center and the Hoe park. The room was very clean and comfortable, and the owner... More

If one takes a moment to read my previous reviews of Poppy’s Guest House, Plymouth, one will appreciate my return here and the continued story. More importantly, one will also acknowledge my desire to again write and eulogise about a very home-from-home, comfortable, clean, and especially friendly sanctuary near Plymouth Hoe. Let me reiterate a point made in my previous... More

We stayed 1 night with our daughter ahead of a University visit. Had booked a double and a single but were given 2 doubles. Very warm welcome received and a pot of tea / biscuits upon arrival gratefully received. Had booked on the back of other reviews on this site and have to support the previous comments made. Very comfortable... More

I was dropping my son off at Plymouth University and needed somewhere to spend the night close to his digs. In the week of New Year, it was a little difficult finding somewhere that was open, and unfortunately some guest houses in Plymouth have now closed down. Since I regularly go to Plymouth, I like to have a number of... More

We have been staying at Poppy's every year for five years now. As always, Diane could not do enough for us. The rooms are spotless, breakfast wonderful and location brilliant. Poppy's is excellent value for money - I recommend anyone looking for a place to stay in Plymouth to give Diane a call. I look forward to returning soon!

I am very pleased to write my second review for Poppy's. Following a very happy stay earlier this year, I returned again for 4 nights in October. Poppy's remains a friendly and welcoming guest house in a sea of Plymouth's spectrum of good, bad, expensive, cheap, clean, dirty places to stay in this fair city. Diane takes considerable pleasure in... More

The room was comfortable, clean. We arrived late afternoon saturday to a very warm welcome from Diane, a lovely pot of hot tea, biscuits. The breakfast was more than expected. Excellent value for the money we paid. We would certainly stay again.

I had a fall days before arriving in Plymouth resulting in damaging my knee. I phoned ahead to let Diane know and she could not have been more helpful. Our room was changed to one with more easy access and taxis were called when we needed one. This is a lovely, clean, welcoming guesthouse which also serves a great breakfast!... More
