Top National Library of Wales Hotel Reviews

Aberystwyth Park Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Only comment I would make and it’s only my thoughts, I found the restaurant and bar area a little bland I felt that it could’ve been a little cosier. As I say just my thoughts perhaps divide bar and general eating area."

Harleys Aberystwyth

10/10 Excellent

"The room was well presented and secure. It was clean and fresh but there was quite a bit of mildew in the shower. The location was great--close to everything."

The Cardigan Bay Guest House

8/10 Good

"Quirky property, a bit tired and dated but the seaview from our Triple room more than made up for that."

gwesTY Guest House

8/10 Good

"Close to the sea with an excellent brekafast. However, parking is extremely difficult in high season"

Gwesty'r Marine Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely sea front hotel in good location. Room was comfortable, nice restaurants in walking distance and lovely spa, just a shame we didn’t get to try any treatments (no information provided) or the steam room (they took too long to switch it on…)."

Bodalwyn Guest House

8/10 Good

"Very convenient and clean, good location and parking possibilities. Comfortable room, enough space for luggage and good amenities"

Harry's Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great location and really friendly staff. Room was a very good size but furniture was a bit dated. All in all we had a good stay."

Castle Hotel

8/10 Good

"Excellent however the pub was very good but you need to stand for the sea view.1st world problems,ha ha ha!"

Large 5 bedroom town-centre home close to the beach, sleeps 9.

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed as a multi generational group for our daughter’s graduation at Aber uni. Jason’s house was ideal. It was clean and well equipt, lots of toilet roll (always an annoyance in many lets!), very well equipt kitchen with dishwasher & lots of fridge & freezer space, lots of games and we were very grateful for the fans left in every room. We were concerned about the parking when we booked but this was never a problem (& we came with 3 cars). We often found street parking nearby or used the football club long stay car park which was good value. The house is in the town centre but apart from the seagulls it was quiet. An easy walk to the beach, shops & restaurants. We had a great time & would love to stay again. Thank you."
