An absolutely wonderful experience. I booked fairly last minute and had not done a lot of research, and did not even know it was under new management. …

We have just spent the weekend at this lovely boutique hotel on the seafront. A very warm welcome from all the staff in the team and this continued throughout the stay. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Our room was beautifully presented and super clean. There is a lovely bar and eating area at reception. We shall definitely be returning. Many thanks to Gareth, Hannah and all the team.

I pulled up outside at 19:00 and luckily they had a room spare. For a moment fear ebbed into my soul as I thought I would have to spend the night in the Premier Inn! The hotel is great, spacious clean rooms that are well appointed. The staff always make the difference and this hotel is no exception, the staff are brilliant. The views are impressive as well.

We spent a lovely night here at Gwesty Cymru. Room No 8 right at the top was well worth all the stairs, beautifully appointed, a bathroom to die for, very romantic. Great views across Cardigan Bay. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious, compliments to the chef! Will definitely be back.
