Perfectly relaxing
Fabulous! A truly relaxing home from home, with friendly and professional staff. We appreciated the quiet of our room ( we didn’t hear other guests), it's draftproofed sash window with view over the seashore, along with a comfortable bed and sufficient space in the room to be at ease. We really enjoyed the warm, cosy and relaxed atmosphere downstairs , the character of the place and tasteful interiors, and last, but not least, the delightful christmas tree in the dining area! And both breakfast and dinner were very tasty.

My stay was for a single night but I wished I could have stayed longer. This is a lovely hotel and its location on the promenade made it absolutely perfect for my love of absea view and my rock collecting hobby. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Beeakfast was fantastic! The menu offered many options, and I was served quickly by the cheerful staff. I strongly recommend this hotel!

We enjoyed our stay and staff were excellent. Arriving on a Saturday, however, meant parking wasn't as easy as it should have been as it is along the seafront and very busy. Internal doors are noisy also which meant a less than restful night after a 7 hour drive. Breakfasts were good with vegetarian options and we had a nice dinner there on Sunday. Easy walking to the shops in town and other dining options. We would stay again but request a room in a quieter part of the building.

Short break in Aberystwyth
Lovely well-positioned hotel on the sea front. Friendly staff and good choice of food for breakfast which was cooked to order. Had an evening meal too which was also very good. Downside is there is no lift so climbing up to the second floor was an effort (we are in our 70's) but we did know this before we arrived so can't complain.

Great location. We had a sea view room which had a fantastic window for watching the sea roll in. Very clean and comfortable room. Lack of parking was an issue. Pay & display parking is necessary in most cases.
