Merchant House hotel is a perfect Truro city centre base for all things adventurous in Cornwall.

Whether you’re visiting for a city business meeting in the heart of Truro and need a comfy place to stay, or plan to get muddy with a cycling or walking holiday in Cornwall’s luscious countryside, we’re a historic hotel with a contemporary charm and lots of perks!

Spend the day shopping on the Truro cobbles, adventure out to take a heritage filled bike ride in undiscovered parts of Cornwall, enjoy panoramic ocean views of the gorgeous coastlines, or spend time with Fido on some of the most beautiful dog friendly beaches in the country.

What’s more, whatever your adventure, we’ll be ready to welcome you back with a fresh cup of steaming tea or coffee, a slice of Chef Dave’s chunky homemade cake and a freshly lit log burner – this is a Truro city centre stay like you’ve never experienced before.
