A nice clean hotel refurbished to a high standard.
Pros:

The property has been refurbished to a high standard, the room was great and a comfortable bed. Staff were pleasant and friendly.. Breakfast was good..The bike store was great for me. The only let down there was no bar meal available which I thought would have been standard for this type of hotel

Cons:

No Bar meal or restaurant available on my stay..

Lovely and peaceful
Pros:

The views were stunning and the beds were super comfy staff were lovely and the bar area was quaint and they had a small sitting room with a pool table which my son loved and they weren't fazed by his random ADHD antics although I hadn't realised id booked a disability friendly hotel at all till I spoke to some other ppl that were staying

Cons:

No in house food but that was a faux-par on me not fully reading the facilities but I was provided with excellent directions to the nearest store and chippy which also delivered on our 2nd night but could have used the kitchen to heat food I think this was my mistake not the Hotels

Excellent.
Pros:

A lovely hotel with the most helpful staff. For this much money you usually get something a bit tired. Not so at Gwesty Seren, it’s all very well equipped and modern. I’ve been before and will visit again

Cons:

Nothing
