Perched on a cliff above the small seaside resort and harbour of Saundersfoot, the St Bride's Hotel is regarded as one of West Wales's best hotels. The main draw is its Spa. The hotel itself is very well appointed, with tastefully decorated bedrooms and ensuite bathrooms all in a pastel New England theme. Most bedrooms have a sea view and balcony. The bathrooms feature high-end toiletries featuring natural minerals and botanicals, if you like that kind of thing. There is a spacious bar and restaurant area, again with wide views, and an outside terrace area. I visited as part of a family party: the reception staff were exceptionally welcoming and helpful, and very efficient. The staff generally were very helpful and friendly and room service was excellent. The bed was superbly comfortable. The food is good: breakfast consists of an extensive buffet, with hot food cooked to order. There's a separate lunch and dinner menu. The portions were very generous, so bear that in mind if you want to leave room for dessert. The only misfire was my starter of Jerusalem Artichoke with a truffle veloute and egg yolk, which was served with charred quinoa - the latter just brought a weird grittiness to the dish. That was a pity, as everything else ordered went down well. The steaks were particularly generous and cooked exactly as requested. The Spa consists of two small steam rooms, a sauna and an outside heated sea water infinity pool with a hydrotherapy area (a bit like a jacuzzi), with a swan-neck fountain that pummels your neck and shoulders like a massage. There's a large relaxation area with beds and sofas with complimentary beverages. Additional treatments include the usual range of massages, etc. A 90 minute session is free for residents, but needs to be booked well in advance as numbers are limited. Packages can also be booked by non-residents. Overall, this is a lovely hotel with very good rooms and service, and, with the Spa, makes for a perfect for a relaxing weekend break. read more

This is a beautiful hotel in Saundersfoot and we ended up staying here for about 2 weeks. The spa facility is fantastic and is included with the stay. You can book ahead for a 90 minute access to the spa daily. It includes 3 sauna rooms, 2 wet and 1 dry. My favorite was the thermal pool with jets. It also has this swan neck jet which can be used to massage the neck. Bonus, it is an infinity pool, looking on to the beach. Its a wonderful experience. The daily breakfast, also included with the room is awesome too. You can order fresh cooked breakfast in addition to the buffet. Definitely a luxurious experience. read more

This is a very swanky spa hotel which has been done up to a high standard in a modern and understated style. It's located in a beautiful part of Wales, on the Pembrokeshire coast on Carmarthen Bay. The hotel itself has spectacular sea views and overlooks the little village of Saundersfoot, and both the restaurant and the terrace have fantastic vistas. Many rooms also face in this direction so will have the same views. The room we were in was facing the road though! But there was a sitting area where you could see the sea if you looked sideways! The en-suite bathroom was lovely, with a bath and power shower in a modern style. But the basin was alarmingly low we decided it was designed for dwarves or something. Anyway, we had a lovely weekend here. We explored Saundersfoot and went for a walk along the coast through disused tunnels a popular and easy walk. Then having been drenched in a downpour, we went in to Tenby, the nearest town, which has beautiful Georgian houses. The sun came out in force, so we went down on to the beach and it was beautiful. Blissful paddling in the sun. So be prepared for very changeable weather four seasons in one day! On the last day we hit the spa which is a big feature of this hotel. We both booked wraps, which involved being covered with a special mud, then scrubbed, massaged with oil and wrapped in a heated blanket. It felt lovely and my skin was super smooth after. Don't miss the heated outside infinity pool which overlooks the sea and village and is part of the spa experience more fantastic views while the bubbles massage you. Definitely a treat worth having! read more

My first time in the area for 32 years and I certainly wasn't disappointed. The hotel has been refurbished fairly recently to a very high standard and the views were stunning. The weather was also great which helped! Food was excellent and great service as well. Spa is very small but a nice (small) spa pool overlooking the bay. They also accept dogs in some of the rooms which was our main reason for choosing but we were very glad we did! read more

If you want a great meal, great service in a fabulous atmosphere - then in Pembs this is the place to come.

The name is confusing since the hotel is in Saundersfoot, however, there is nothing confusing about it's exceptional location and views. Rooms cost £200-£280 a night, but since I live nearby I have not availed myself of them, however, I eat there often. There is a restaurant and a less formal seating area, all overlook Saundersfoot harbour and the sea. The view is wondrous by day and by night. Considering the high price of the rooms, food here is not over the top. It is mostly on a par with any pub or restaurant. Pembrokeshire may be a poor area, but pub and restaurant food is rarely cheap, there is so little competition. Service is good, though the barman can be abrupt sometimes and the basic error of holding a glass of wine etc by the rim instead of by the stem is prevalent with the English/Welsh staff, though not the French. Basic training falls down in this way, however, generally speaking the service is good without being overly attentive. You won't be hurried out and I particularly enjoy having a meal later in the day/early evening. This is the favourite haunt for me and a particular friend. Recently I took two American ladies there for early dinner and they absolutely loved the food and the beautiful views. The restaurant has a very good menu and the food is good and well presented, service is a bit more attentive here, but I would rather be offered things twice than ignored which so often happens elsewhere. I hate what I call, 'dump it and run' places which pretend to be gastro pubs, charge high prices but their service is nil. I like a linen napkin and for someone to notice when I need something. This is a lovely place for a romantic dinner, lunch or afternoon tea, difficult to top the view. read more
