Really good Stay Within Castle Walls

excellent service town walls many choices room fridge
I stayed here to explore North Wales. Neil provided excellent service . The location is inside the town walls. Breakfast included many choices and the room had a fridge with milk for drinks.
The room was a bit small. Street parking can be difficult at times. I had to use the bed to sit in the room.
Service

Wonderful Stay, Great Location!

fantastic location lovely chair filling breakfast right amount
The location was fantastic, it was very easy to return to the hotel. I could drop off shopping bags before meals or walks around the harbour. I enjoyed relaxing in the room. I had a lovely chair by a big window. Breakfast was also tasty and filling. I found it was just right.
My small room felt a little cold, only a minor issue.
Location
10/10
The hotel is interestingly situated right next to the mediaeval town wall, which I found so charming. Its proximity to the castle is excellent, only a few minutes walking. There are great restaurants nearby too. That was a plus.
