"Missed breakfast which was always my highlight of my stays here previously. But this was my third time staying. I love the location; I can drink my coffee in my bay window and listen to the waves from Bae Ceredigion. It’s super close to the castle and just a short walk to the pier and town."

"When we arrived at the hotel for our 1 night stay, we were informed that we had been upgraded to an apartment because there was an issue with some of the rooms due to a leaking roof. It was a bit disruptive, but the disruption was worth it because the apartment was great. The breakfast was good too."

10/10 Excellent
"This is still a fairly new venture for the Harley team and they are doing a great job. Its in a small central street of Aberystwyth and only a few minutes walk to the wonderful sea front promenade which is an absolute must daily to walk along to watch the tide come in or out or go for a swim . Bars and great variety of eating places are all nearby. Theres so much to do and see in Aberystwyth and the Tourist Information is again only a few minutes away. This is Wales and so the sun may not always shine but the sea air is so healthy -and I love it. As I do the small independent shops, Art exhibitions, events programme. Mountain walks . Sense of ancient Aberystwyth traditions sit comfortably with modern amenities here. Its great value for the price of a nights stay.I had four nights here and found the spacious room and ensuite really clean and slept better than I do often at home! There are stairs in this small hotel but the staff are a phone call away to help with carrying luggage if needed. Im a senior and felt instantly relaxed here. Really comfortable bed and pleasant issues are soon sorted out by the lovely efficient friendly staff. I look forward to my next stay."
