Perfect stay in the wonderful Gwesty Cymru. I wouldn't choose to stay anywhere else in Aberystwyth.
Pros:

Fantastic welcome from Gareth and all of the staff at Gwesty Cymru as always. Fantastic rooms with a lovely comfy bed and wonderful walk in shower. Locally sourced shampoo/body wash etc was amazing. Such a high quality breakfast, and in the evening a fabulous cocktail bar. Can't recommend this hotel enough. See you next year!

Cons:

Absoloutely nothing. Gareth went above and beyond, even carrying my suitcase to the car outside as my hands were full - thank you!

Perfect stay in this beautiful place.
Pros:

This is the perfect perfect place to stay in Aberystwyth. Right on the front with the most stunning views out to sea. The room and bathroom was huge and had everything we needed. The whole place was spotlessly clean. The breakfast was lovely. All the staff were really kind and friendly and helpful. The bar downstairs was a great spot for drinks and a chat. Gareth was a great host. He really wants the guests to have a positive experience and was great to chat to. We wished we could have stayed longer but we'll definitely be back soon and already recommended to the family.
