Great view & very good breakfast - we’d stay there again
Pros:

Great view, nice big room & bathroom & very good breakfast with good quality ingredients

Cons:

The blinds in our room were not good & did not restrict the light as they are not well fitted. There’s a streetlight right outside & it’s summer so the sun came up at around 4am & the room never got dark. Proper black out curtains needed.

Stort, centralt och trevligt.
Pros:

Mycket stort rum med fantastisk utsikt. Det gick att dra för tunna gardiner så att man inte såg in. Mycket trevlig personal. En mysig bar på entréplan som trots att den var precis nedanför vårt fönster aldrig störde oss. Stort plus för morgonrockarna. Det var 30 grader varmt när vi var där och det fanns två bra fläktar på rummet.

Gwesty Cymru exceeded my expectations and I would definitely recommend it if you are planning on staying in Aberystwyth.
Pros:

It’s obvious the property has been upgraded to today’s standards and our room was so spacious and comfortable with an amazing bathroom. I was delighted with quality bed linen and towels as well as the cleanliness due to excellent housekeeping staff. The view over the seafront was such a pleasure for us and we appreciated, in the heat, the high quality tower fan the owner had installed. The garden in front of the property is one of the best places to enjoy on the Aberystwyth sea front - in the gorgeous weather we enjoyed drinks outdoors and could watch the glorious sunset. Breakfast was excellent, with friendly and professional staff making sure all guests were satisfied.
