Perfect - a relaxing stay in exceptionally well designed rooms with great staff. Super breakfast.
Pros:

The rooms at the Hive Townhouse are beautifully designed with great attention to detail and comfort. We had a large wet room shower, lots of fluffy towels and toiletries and it was spotlessly clean.
We particularly liked the way a member of staff showed us to our room and explained everything, rather than just being given a key as in most hotels.
Breakfast is served in the Hive restaurant just across the road. The breakfast menu covers everything with a wide selection to suit all needs. The ingredients are very high quality and beautifully cooked. The service was excellent.
The staff are great - attentive and always ready to help. They clearly take pride in looking after their customers.
Five stars all round from us.

Cons:

Nothing.

Luxury on the quayside
Pros:

Location, design, cleanliness and comfort. Breakfast was really good with pleasant and efficient staff. The room was beautifully designed and very well equipped. The complementary minibar was a very pleasant surprise.

Cons:

It didn't have parking, but this didn't prove to be a problem as we were able to park nearby for free. The road layout proved a challenge as some were closed for resurfacing.

Fantastic
Pros:

This is our second stay here.
Beautifully furnished rooms with some little treats 😍.
Location is stunning looking out onto harbour.
Aberaron is a special place for me - i first went 60 years ago as a newborn baby and I return every year if possible. The hive is my favourite place to stay.
Breakfast is amazing. Staff are lovely.
Thank you too for posting an item back to me that I left behind.

Cons:

Nothing not to like!!!

Exceptional accommodation with bonus extras. Cannot recommend highly enough
Pros:

This is one of the best places I have stayed and I've travelled all over the world. The accommodation was exceptional. Very modern, very clean, all the extra touches- free mini bar, snacks, charger cable, high quality toiletries, free ice cream vouchers- it was also very central with pleasant views. If I could rate it more than 10 out of 10 I would!

Cons:

Nothing it was perfect. Well done to the person who owns this

Luxe, top ligging
Pros:

Luxe kamer, goede ligging. Mooie restaurants rondom en top hiking mogelijkheden. We hadden een “ verkeerde” kamer gekregen maar dat hebben ze top opgelost. Mini bar faciliteiten gratis maar belangrijker gewoon goed.

Excellent accommodation in a great location
Pros:

Very modern, comfortable, clean accommodation with parking outside on the street and close to all the facilities. WE had one minor hitch that was dealt with by the housekeeper. But otherwise no complaints.

Cons:

Might have been nice if the staff in the restaurant opposite could offer a small welcome pack given they have not great interest in the accommodation. Which is not to say that they were not helpful - they were fine. But they had not great relationship with the accommodation, so naturally their 'welcome' was not as it would be with say a B&B. So, that could be improved by offering a welcome back when picking up the key.

Very enjoyable. Very attentive staff.
Pros:

Very appealing property, very modern inside and imaginatively appointed.

Cons:

Some outside noise on the ground floor. The room would have benefited from being able to let in more fresh air.

The town was extremely good but the entire experience could have been better if the Hive Restaursnt
Pros:

The cleanliness comfort and location of the hotel and the facilities in the room - very good

Cons:

The breakfast room etc was tired, not the cleanest and at times your felt not enough care was given to decor and did not match the standard represented by the townhouse
The breakfasts were plentiful, good choice except for the lack of alternative breads to white bread
