Aberystwyth hotel

We decided to visit Aberystwyth as we’d never been to Wales. Beautiful scenic drive to the hotel. Ample parking, paid for at the end of our stay. Check-in was quick and easy at the self service kiosk, even quicker if you check-in online beforehand. Family room was spacious, with all necessities available. You can help yourself to extra milk, tea and coffee at reception, no need to ask. Beds were super comfy. Shower was amazing! Like a waterfall and so hot! We received a promenade view room which was awesome and had easy access to both exit doors. Wish I’d actually read my emails to know that we could have bolted dinner on, taking the guess work out of deciding what and where to eat, which can be tricky with kids in tow. Plenty to see and do in the area. The kids especially enjoyed exploring the castle ruins. A great play park right next to the Castle too. Plenty of pay-for toilet facilities around. An excellent stay. We left reluctantly and wish we’d booked an extra night.

Breakfast fantastic options as usual. Attentive staff on the front desk. Room was huge for our family break which was lovely. Beds so comfy. We had a great nights sleep. The only slight issue is that ideally there would be a door onto the sea front. Would be so much more convenient for families especially rather than trekking through the car park and round

We stayed here due to visiting family in Aberystwyth. Parking is now £8 per 24 hours (the rate has increased since May this year)! Pros: Room clean and tidy, excellent mattress and pillows with extra provided, staff are all lovely, close to town centre with plenty of places to eat and drink. The Prom Diner opposite is great! Cons: For a double room, only one set of towels was provided, so we had to go to Reception and ask for extra, there is no phone in the room, so it was a journey down there and back from the 3rd floor. The room cards didn't work on numerous occasions; again, more trips to Reception to get new ones. (This may change in the future, as I think they may be having a new system installed later this year.) Reported that a lightbulb wasn't working, still not sorted by our 5th day. Now this is the biggie for me: the window in Room 308 doesn't open, it's sealed. On arrival at the room, there was a strong smell of artificial air freshener coming through the vents. There was no way to turn this off. I became quite wheezy. As an asthma sufferer, this was quite off-putting as we couldn't open the window to get some fresh air in or a through draft. This system continued all the time we were there; apparently, it was to make up for the window not opening! It was frightening, as if I had an attack; there was no phone in the room to call for help, and no window to open. I felt quite vulnerable when in the room on my own, but was ok if my partner was with me. Perhaps someone could address this for H & S purposes....

Room was great! Staff wonderful! Air Conditioning worked great! Easy walking distance to many restaurants and train station.

The first impression of the hotel from the seafront was not good. It looks tired and shabby. However once we went round the corner the entrance and into the hotel, everything was fine. A lovely welcome from the reception staff who stored our luggage until it was time to check in. The room was lovely and clean with great controllable air con. Breakfast was plentiful, hot and fresh. Restaurant very clean and helpful very friendly staff. Lovely to see staff member testing the temperature of all of the hot breakfast items. Would definitely recommend staying here if looking for somewhere comfortable, clean and friendly in Aberystwyth.
