I had a really lovely stay, my room was small but tastefully decorated. There were a few marks on the wall that could do with touching up. The tea tray was good quality as was the breakfast. The best thing about this hotel it the staff who were all fabulous. Be careful of the parking as its only 4 hours on the front so best park at the back if possible.

Clean co

Lovely clean and comfortable hotel and room. Breakfast could be improved - as a vegan there was plant milk when asked but with a focus very much on a cooked breakfast, the continental breakfast options could have been improved - cereals were boxed and limited pastries. Plant based yogurt would also be a welcome addition.

Pleasant beach front hotel

The hotel is centrally located on a beautiful beach front. The staff are accompanying and pleasant. The room and public areas were clean and free of clutter. There were improvements which could be made in the bathroom and parking was tricky but overall a nice stay.

Perfectly relaxing

Fabulous! A truly relaxing home from home, with friendly and professional staff. We appreciated the quiet of our room ( we didn’t hear other guests), it's draftproofed sash window with view over the seashore, along with a comfortable bed and sufficient space in the room to be at ease. We really enjoyed the warm, cosy and relaxed atmosphere downstairs , the character of the place and tasteful interiors, and last, but not least, the delightful christmas tree in the dining area! And both breakfast and dinner were very tasty.

Over night stay

The hotel is very good and our room had a sea view. The room was a good size with a large bathroom & walkin shower. The bar was large with small areas. Our dinner was good and breakfast was excellent as well. Check in was quick even though it was at the bar.

Glengower, Aberystwyth

We had a really good time at the Glengower. All the staff were very friendly and kept on checking we were okay when we had our evening meal and breakfast the following morning. The place looks great since being done up (I last visited the old Glengower). Our bedroom was clean and tidy and the bed was comfortable. The food was great and we will definitely be back in the new year.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We were “welcomed” by a waitress whose attitude ranged somewhere between laziness and open disdain. When we asked if we could have dinner, she said she could ask if there was a table available, and in the meantime we could sit at one of the bar tables. We politely agreed. What followed was over thirty minutes of watching her wander aimlessly, gossip with colleagues, and do anything but her job. Not once did she come over to give us an update. The only acknowledgment we got were occasional smug, condescending smiles — as if we were some sort of nuisance for daring to be there. When I finally asked if there were no tables, she casually admitted she hadn’t even bothered to check. Only then, after wasting half an hour of our evening, did she suggest she could “go and ask now.” The hotel side was no better: faulty lamps, only one towel, mattresses caving in so badly you roll into the middle, and the constant roar of a kitchen ventilation unit right below our room, ensuring we couldn’t sleep before late at night or after dawn. This place is a masterclass in how to fail at hospitality.
