This is a great little hotel, bar and restaurant in the very pretty town of Aberaeron. They have…read morerecently extended the bar and restaurant so can now accomodate many more people but I don't think it has lost any of its charm because of it. It really is the place to go in the Summer, people are spilling out of it clutching their drinks and the atmosphere is very relaxed and friendly. If you do manage to get a table to eat in the restaurant the food will not disspoint you. Most of it seems to be locally sourced and it has a very good and quite informative menu. It is a bit pricey, but its still a good place to go for a special occassion. I have taken my 2 oldest children there (8 & 6 years) and they enjoyed it but I don't think I'd want to take my younger two there as it would be too stressful. I've never stayed in the hotel but have heard that it is very nice, the photos in the brochure certainly seem good and it is in an amazing postion.

The folks that work at this establishment are top notch. Uniformly. And that is not a coincidence…read more These people do what it takes to take care of their guests. The bar and restaurant are very busy. Deservingly so. The free continental breakfast is a culinary delight and the rooms are very nice. Stayed here for a few days and wished it could have been longer. When we found out we had no hot water in our room the manager came up personally offered us another room on the other wing of the hotel that had hot water. We thanked them and they assisted us into another MUCH nicer room and even offered to have the bar send some drinks to our room. Very classy and very well handled. But I do want to apologize to the Harbourmaster staff, five stars are all they will let me give you guys! Sorry!

We took advantage of a Groupon offer for a luxury stay at Ty Mawr Mansion(not to be confused by the…read moresimilar named Ty Mawr restaurant and hotel in Brechfa) and were delighted with our experience at the beautifully restored Georgian mansion house. On our arrival the owner, Martin, was immediately on hand to help with luggage and welcome us to the lovely Ty Mawr. We were delighted with our huge suite room, named after previous guest Kiera Knightly, the bedroom with lounge area was dual aspect overlooking the free range chickens and lovely grounds and larger than the whole of our own upstairs house! The luxurious and modern bathroom with a spa bath and rainshower made for a very relaxing pre dinner freshen up. The hotel suite rooms also have their own computers with free broadband, maybe not the speediest of computers but useful for looking up local places and event. Tea tray included delicious home made biscuits, only tiny criticism could be lack of variety with only standard but high quality tea and coffee sachets. An extremely comfortable and huge bed which we were sad to leave. The food, as the previous reviewer of Ty Mawr has written, is delicious and of a very high quality both for dinner and a wonderful breakfast...want more home made bread and toast yum.

The welcome from the owners is like being greeted by friends. I have eaten in their small restaurant on three occasions. On each occasion it was full. The clients include many locals who have, like me, discovered this little gem in the midst of West Wales. The food is sourced locally and the menu reflects what is in season. The rooms are generous and beautifully furnished with modern, lavishly fitted bathrooms. The hotel has 5 star rating and the restaurant has been awarded 1 AA rosette. I highly recommend the restaurant, the food is absolutely superb.

Unfortunately the first room had a plumbing problem but a change of room was immediately offered. The second room was fine but a little dated. That said everything was clean and the bed comfy. There is a small bar at the front of the hotel and looks over the park, I had a couple of pints before dinner. The food was all home cooked and excellent quality. I started with pate and had a main of ham egg and chips. Large brandy followed and off to bed. Must make special mention of the breakfast it was one of the nicest full English I ever had. Proper sausage and bacon with black pudding and poached egg. Perfect! I would stay here again no problem. B&B was £120. Dinner about £35.

From the full Welsh breakfast in the restaurant to the cozy rooms with great landscape views, this gem was extraordinarily comfy. Great chefs in the restaurant, full service bar and the most delicious desserts. It has a beautiful pool with a nice hot sauna. I wished I could stay longer than 4 days during my visit. I almost wanted to buy out a room permanently. This place is a very beautiful part of Pembrokeshire Wales, not easy to get to. I wish I could move there.

We were treated like royalty, reception booked us in for our evening meal at Castell Deudreath (the more modern hotel and restaurant in Portmeirion Village) and even booked the complimentary taxi service for us so we didn't have to walk up the hill. The meal was superb and the taxi brought us back to our hotel when we were finished. Our room was perhaps a little dated but charming all the same and very pretty and this was all forgotten the folowing morning when we woke up to breakfast in bed and the gorgeous view of the estuary as the sun slowly rose in the sky. I long to return to The Hotel Portmeirion again to fully explore the village and enjoy the tranquility and service we experienced there.

The chef knows how to layer subtle flavors so that the dish ends up surpassing the ingredients he (or she?) uses. I ordered the £9.95 "Meal Deal" of Risotto, but this had to be the best Risotto I've ever eaten. Other family members ordered a plate of prawns, smoked salmon and soup (£10.95), and a rarebit and soup (£6.95). We shared a cheese platter (£8.50) for dessert. Every bite was exquisite. Our server, Huw, also deserves high praise. He understands fine dining, met our every need, and deserved a nice tip, which we were more than happy to leave.

Really friendly service from the lovey family that runs the hotel, great value for money. Only complaints are the cold water gets hot fast, and some rooms had carpeted bathroom floors. Otherwise it was a perfect little spot for the weekend. We'll definitely be back.
