"D12 treetops at Clarach bay is a lovely setting. Family friendly and lovely staff. We had hot water and good recycling facilities. The site was perfect. However, some of our bedcovers had chocolate on them!!! We found spares to use instead. The green headboard on the main bedroom had a strong smell of unwashed hair ( it seriously needs to be replaced). We had no WiFi and on enquiring we were informed the previous guests had used it up? There were plenty cleaning materials and cooking facility...

Top Aberystwyth University Hotel Reviews

Aberystwyth Park Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel more than exceeded our expectations. In fact we were blown away by everything. Friendly staff on reception, lovely decor, our room on the first floor was nicely decorated, and the breakfast was delicious. There is loads of parking. We'd definitely stay here again. Wish more hotels were like this one!!!"

The Glengower

10/10 Excellent

"What a lovely stay! Beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean and a super comfortable bed! The staff were all so friendly, happy and helpful, making us feel really welcome. The cosy, atmospheric bar and dining area was a lovely place to spend the evening, with fantastic food and a beautiful selection of wines and whiskies. Breakfast was equally delicious, with the Eggs Benedict an absolute must! A really lovely place to stay, full of character and warmth. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back!"

Castle Hotel

8/10 Good

"I'm glad that I stayed at The Castle Hotel finally. It was very pleasant! My room was spacious and had nice views out of the windows, the bed was comfortable, the staff were pleasant. It wasn't right in the middle of Aber, so it was quiet (minus the noise from the car racing - but I had a great view for it). Easy walk right down to the sea. The only drawback was not having a lift, but that is pretty common and my fault for having a heavy suitcase! I would definitely stay again."

Queensbridge Hotel

8/10 Good

"Clean basic accommodation but lovely staff and a good breakfast."

Celtic Bay Guest House

8/10 Good

"Staff were great, was clean and tidy, used to stay as a single traveller for rally weekend. Centrally located and everything you'll need in a room. Ideal for my trip, would recommend if you are looking for a good value bed for the night"

Helmsman Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"Quality establishment. Sea view was spectacular and owner very helpful and responsive. Decor absolutely fine, parking not an issue; on street outside or in one of the back roads. Breakfasts: the lighter breakfast of cereal/toast was fine and good price. Tv was complicated to use and there were no instructions. Thoroughly recommended and we plan to return."

Richmond Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Reception staff were lovely, the room was spotlessly clean single room perfect for my needs, free wifi plenty of power sockets and lights, one of the nicest beds I have ever slept in! Lovely cooked Welsh breakfast plus plenty of fresh fruit, yoghurt and cereal choices Really enjoyed my stay and will definitely book again"
