“Royal Lion Hotel strikes me as a practical choice in Tenby, prioritizing location and affordability. Overlooking the harbor, it's clear the building has seen better days, but the rooms are reportedly spacious and clean. I think it's best suited for short stays where being near the sea is the main goal.”
