“A stay here places you in a prime spot, above a lively local bar, close to Aberystwyth Castle and North Beach. Rooms are individually styled, some offering stunning sea views, and while some rooms may be on the smaller side, they are clean and comfortable. I think its historical Edwardian building with views of Cardigan Bay are its true selling points.”
