Excellent stay at The Harbourmaster. Our room was lovely, traditionally Welsh in design with lots of homely touches and perfect view over the harbour. The hotel itself has a cosy restaurant and bar offering complimentary coffee/tea and cake for hotel guests. Although we don’t eat here we had a nice drink at the end of the evening. Excellent Welsh breakfast with lots of other choices on offer. Would definitely stay here again

The room was spotless.Staff were excellent. Food excellent. The room we had was near the lift,which was needed.w we booked disable parking and our name was displayed at the bay ,a nice touch. Definitely will be stsying again.
Such friendly staff! A beautiful location and the room had a lovely view over the harbour. Clean, comfortable room with a sofa which we appreciate as we’re not comfortable to watch TV at night in bed. Excellent evening meal too.
