The hotel has free parking on the opposite side of the hotel. Firstly the hotel does need sprucing up. We stayed in room 2. The room was massive with outstanding sea views. The room is part of the tower rooms. …

This is much more like a 3 star hotel. An honesty and eccentricity about the place and the charming owners are beautiful down to earth people. Breakfast was very good. Dinner available. On street parking, across the road. Peaceful, relaxed environment. Clean, well managed, great service, comfortable beds, spacious rooms, good shower, wifi, TV, telephone, hairdryer, kettle etc. Good views of castle and sea depending on room. Dogs allowed :-) good beach for walkies, woof woof !!! Very pleasant stay. Thank you.

This has had a change of name to the Castle Keep and also a big revamp. Our room was themed which was a little cheesy but very cleanwith some extra touches to make your stay even betterThe host was very welcoming and greeted us upon arrival and made sure we settled in and even surprised us with a Birthday drink! (Thank you x).The other oops they have done have kitchens and are very tastfuly decorated so we will be looking to return as the location allows travel all over North Wales. Highly recommended 👌 👍

Fabulous location, opposite the castle and very close to the sea front. Rooms very spacious and comfortable with all the usual amenities. Well stocked tea and coffee in the rooms. The owners are wonderful, friendly and helpful. More like a b&b than a hotel - and that's a good thing. Great value recommended.

Stayed here for two nights and couldn’t wait to leave. It needs a LOT of money spending on it on main things such as the plumbing, electrics, furniture, decor etc . …

On there website it says dog friendly but we couldn't bring my dog down to breakfast so we had to go in 2's or 3's so we couldn't eat breakfast as a family. It is not a dog friendly area either. The staff didn't seem happy and that's not what you would want to see when you walk into the hotel. And you feel like you canto ask them a question because you get an bad look. But the breakfast was good.I will only rate this 2 stars.

Very run down hotel, from the outside it looks like a squat. Inside is just plain fugly. Bar should be full of people as it's open to the public. But on my numerous visits it's always empty. Speaks volumes. …
