The room we had had creaking floorboards, the carpets needed a good clean and the chairs were ripped and had lost most of their padding.
Had a lovely 1 night stay at this historic hotel. The interiors are dated but that is part of the charm. The staff were so helpful and friendly, we had an upgrade on our room because hotels.com had overbooked and the staff were very good about it. The room and bed were comfortable, but the kettle was a bit rubbish and not convenient to use (it was connected to the plug which was behind the television) The breakfast was pretty average, not the best but you had enough options. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend if you need somewhere in the area.
Location second to none. History of property and area.Food quality very good.nice to have bottled water supplied in room and nice toiletries.
Our room 120 looked out on to extractors; flat roof;ladder and was very dark,probably the worst room in the hotel.dirty glasses with lipstick on them in bedroom.All windows around hotel and room were grubby and may seem a small point but way have a van full of dry hotel rubbish parked in the car park constantly so that it’s the first thing you see from the restaurant!
Built for a visit by Queen Victoria the hotel is over 100 years old.Inevitably therefore one has to accept everything is slightly dated.The staff were charming.

Room was very dark window covered by fire escape. The room itself was good they said it was because we booked on line and not direct we had been allocated this room lesson learned no money or conpensation so beware and book direct
A taste of the past subtly being updated. Plenty of seating areas to pause and take in the nostalgia within the hotel. Located right on on the sea front with viewing areas to sit and observe the passing masses. Not cheap but you get a bit of everything and a touch of class
Rooms were vary hot, even with sash window open at night. Then there was noise from the street. Slow service at the bar. Breakfasts were fabulous and very big. No faults on breakfast
We loved our room with the view over the Menai strait to the mountains. This was a nice place to relax with a lovely coffee house. The breakfast didn't have a lot of choice but was fine. The evening meals were nice but menu always stayed the same - could do with more choice.

The hotel appears a bit tired, the en suite shower wasn’t great, floor in bathroom sticky.
Staff were great especially bar staff. Expensive for condition of hotel. Great position in town which is what I imagine you’re paying for.
The location is excellent, the staff very welcoming and pleasant, the facilities super. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return for another visit.

Great stop over en route to Ireland
Wonderful hotel, perfect for visiting north Wales or as in our case, an overnight stay en route to Ireland. It has old fashion charm (1970 +), and helpful staff, great breakfast and reasonable rates
Great location. Evening meal, lovely food well cooked. Great breakfast. Overall stay very enjoyable. Mix up with bill at the end of the stay was rectified quickly. Would recommend.
