Our hostess was so nice. We were exhausted from the Ferry and hungry. She kindly got us a taxi to dinner and also reserved it for the next morning when we needed a ride to the car rental place.  …

What a great sopt! The owners were wonderful and very accommodating! We were on a road trip through the country and didn't get to the hotel until 10 pm, and they welcomed us with open arms, took our order for breakfast, and we were off to sleep. The room we were in, room 7, had plenty of room and an amazing view! We would highly recommend staying at the Haven Guest House!

My stay at The Haven Guest House was an absolute nightmare. Despite being advertised as pet-friendly, this place is anything but. The constant signage dictating what you can and cannot do makes the environment extremely unwelcoming and stressful.To make matters worse, the property is covered with video cameras recording you without any prior warning or consent. This obvious invasion of privacy is unacceptable and made us feel incredibly uncomfortable throughout our stay.I brought my puppy, who isn't fully potty trained in stressful situations. He had a small accident on the disgustingly old and dirty carpet, and the owner demanded a ridiculous £70 fee for it. Given the filthy state of the carpet, this charge was not only unreasonable but downright outrageous.I strongly advise against staying at this B&B. It's far from pet-friendly, lacks basic hospitality, and the intrusive supervision is downright creepy. Save yourself the trouble and find somewhere else to stay.

We stayed here the night before we took the ferry, and it was really convenient. You can walk in a few minutes from there to the ferry terminal, the rooms are small but tidy and clean, and the family whose Guest house this is, is very friendly.I can definitely recommend it for travelers going towards Ireland by ferry.

On our way to Ireland we stayed at The Haven B&B in Holyhead. I’m so happy that I found this lovely B&B. Our room was really nice and spacious and the owners made us feel very welcome. I travel with my two boys and our dog and everyone was really happy to stay there. The bed was very comfortable and everyone slept very well. Dog walking possibilities are just around the corner and the ferry port is also close. Selige it being next to a busy road it was quiet at night. We enjoyed our stay and are looking forward to staying there another night on our way back from Ireland.

Fabulous Room and very nicely decorated. Have to say the bed was so comfortable and the ensuite bathroom was fabulous.Great view and parking outside, or you can use the accommodation parking. Lovely hosts, very accommodating and very helpful and allowed me to store my bike in the property overnight, thank you. Will definitely stay here again!

Very clean B&B and welcoming hosts, rooms are great and quiet.Also there is a hotel up the road which is a short walk along the promenade. I have read some negative reviews about Holyhead, whilst there was not a great deal open it was a good place to spend a night before catching the ferry to Dublin. This would have been 5 stars but the plastic mattress cover was not something that I enjoyed sleeping on.
