gwesTY Guest House

8/10 Good

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

Harleys Aberystwyth

8/10 Good

"Good large clean airy room, comfy pillows, bed bit uncomfortable due to having 2 single bed bases so felt the wood in the middle so couldnt sleep next to my fiance, would benefit with a mattress topper, supplied tea coffee etc and restocked when asked, we had a great stay."

Aberystwyth Park Lodge

8/10 Good

"Stayed here many times and never been disappointed"

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…)."

Starling Cloud, Aberystwyth by Marston’s Inns

8/10 Good

"All OK for what I needed."

The Cardigan Bay Guest House

8/10 Good

"Loved this place, a small guest house directly on the promenade along the beach front, and in my case with a room overlooking the promenade with a beautiful view of the sea front. Very nice and helpful staff (Sam) asnd a nice small (cafe) and small gift shop. Really lovely place. The room was small for two, with two beds, and a little difficult to negotiate, and the room amenities were very basic. But the place is so nice overall and the location so great, I rate the place 4/5 for what it is (small guesthouse, not an upscale or modern hotel), even though there were drawbacks, I'd certainly stay there again."

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."
