Reviews and Ratings
I must say, this hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were airy, light, and generally well-turned-out, but unfortunately, it was too warm for my liking with no way to cool it down, leading to a slightly disturbed night's sleep. On the bright side, it offered good value for money, especially considering its cool ambiance and frosted window.
The hotel room we stayed in was beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean, providing great comfort. Though located on the second floor with steep stairs, the room was slightly hot during the warm weather, reaching 30 degrees. The service was outstanding, with the staff being extremely helpful, friendly, and accommodating. Despite some noise from the main road outside, the central location was convenient for exploring Aberaeron. The dining experience was delightful with a delicious Welsh breakfast that kept us satisfied throughout the day.
The hotel had both positives and negatives. The rooms were decorated to a high standard and immaculately clean and comfortable, but they were dated and expensive for what was provided. The service was friendly, but there was an unsettling incident with the bar staff. The location was excellent in the centre but was noisy due to the nearby road and lacked onsite parking. The dining experience was good with tasty food but lacked reception in the overall spacious area. The facilities were well-maintained, with two pools one indoor and one outdoor, and a modern gym.
The hotel is ideally located in the center of Aberaeron, making it convenient for exploring the town. The rooms are beautifully decorated and cozy, offering a comfortable and clean stay. The service from the staff was attentive and friendly, ensuring a pleasant experience. The dining options were excellent, with a wide selection and well-presented meals. However, the hotel's dining area might require better timing for cleaning. The fantastic location and friendly service make this hotel a great choice for a stay in Aberaeron.
The hotel is a cozy spot with small twin beds that are spotlessly clean and equipped with everything we needed. The service was exceptional, going the extra mile with personal touches. The location is fantastic, close to the center and all facilities. The dining offers a variety of choices with a Welsh cooked breakfast. A few flights of stairs might be a downside, but overall, great value for money.
The hotel is conveniently located down the high street, close to all areas of the town, making it fantastic for exploring Aberaeron. The trendy and up-to-date rooms were pleasant, but could benefit from a little extra care. The menu of the on-site bar was varied and cooked to perfection, plus included homemade local products, although the cleaning schedule could be more considerate of guests' dining times.
The hotel is in a nice area close to the center and all the shops, with a variety of breakfast options available. The rooms are cozy but slightly small, and the location can be noisy due to traffic. The service was polite and helpful, and the dining experience was enjoyable with delicious full English breakfast. The facilities are adequate for a comfortable stay.
The hotel is conveniently located in lovely Aberaeron, on the high street, making it perfect for everything in Aberaeron. The rooms were really clean and the bed was very comfy, but they are a little on the small side and up quite a lot of steep narrow steps. The service was really helpful, and the staff made me feel very comfortable, almost like home from home. The dining experience offered plenty of choices and a straightforward Welsh cooked breakfast. However, there were some inconsistencies in the offerings and timing. The location is right on the high street, clean, and the staff is friendly. The facilities seemed well-maintained and functional.
