Comfortable hotel close to the sea
Comfortable hotel in a lovely old building. Lovely staff - especially chatting over breakfast (they do offer a full cooked Welsh!). Street outside can be a little noisy, but quietened down by the night time.

Good acomodation booked in with the new property owner Kurt, we were the second transaction made on his hotel account, chap by the bar beat us to no 1 position by a matter of minutes, Kurt had recently bought the Castle Hotel friday the 1st of September was his first day so basically hit the road running! He explained theres going to be big changes / improvements over the coming months so watch the space, as a New Zealander the bar area is going to be a sport bar area with some great rugby camaraderie shown throughout, obviously other sports will be shown as and when and we wish Kurt well in his new venture, thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be returning in the future.

Ok for a 1 night stay
I’ve never stayed in a room above a pub before so it was an interesting experience. The room was basic but ok but the bed was not very comfortable. The bathroom was freezing. There was a towel wrack which looked like it may heat but it didn’t work. Breakfast was ok.

Central to shops and the harbour . The hotel is effectively rooms above a pub with all rooms up a steep staircase at the rear. Check in was behind the bar which closed at 6pm on the night we arrived !! .The room was small with a basic en-suite and the roadside location made it noisy. This was overpriced and well below expectations

Rather a lot to pay for an average room.
A wonderful location in beautiful Aberaeron.
A little disappointed with the room. For £126 a night we’d expect a much better shower. Towels were ok and breakfast good. There is limited accommodation in the town here so I guess prices will be pushed up.
We ate at The Cellar - a fantastic restaurant.
