Great staff, marston’s penny pinching.

The staff were excepted I couldn’t fault the manager for how hard we worked to solve the problem with the super loud aircon unit. However, this is a Marston’s owned chain so everything about it is cheap except the price. Cold shower, stuffy room, tired fittings. But….comfy bed and super location. So it’s not all doom and gloom.

Great views, comfy.

Stayed here for a weekend event at the Talyllyn Railway in Tywyn - chosen as it was close to the station and other amenities. Had a pleasant stay, no noise from bar other than some rowdy guest arriving early morning for a few minutes. Lovely view of the beach, close to cafes and shops. Short walk to the beach and not too far for the train station. Only issue was the shower being too hot with no obvious way to cool the temperature, AC in room was a little noisy at random times - but I got used to this on second night. Overall a pleasant stay.

Lovely setting

The hotel is a fully functional pub and hotel. This was not a problem for me. Clean room, friendly staff, comfortable bed and a great view from my window over a beautiful coastal bay. The only issue I had was that the shower temperature was difficult to control.

Exemplary customer service and friendly staff - cannot fault them at all! Great dinner and breakfast too. Great location for anyone wishing to escape to a quiet fishing village and/or the local hills, whether for the views or watch the military jets flying low overhead (or below them!) Would very happily return and recommend! Highly recommend visitors also visit the birthplace inspiration behind Thomas The Tank Engine at nearby Tywyn Wharf Railway Station.

Great value

Swift and easy check-in. The family room had two bedrooms which was a very pleasant surprise. Everything was spotlessly clean and the beds were very comfortable. Could have done with a rubber bath mat but found out later we could have asked for one. Similarly de-caff tea and coffee I guess. We had our 4-year-old granddaughter with us but there were no issues with noise from the bar below. Limited menu but food was very good. Steaks were lovely. Nice pint too. Great breakfast. Excellent service from friendly, attentive, courteous and efficient staff. Would stay again.

Comfortable beds….that’s about it!!

Large family room with comfortable beds for our family of thee, but that’s where the positives end. Loud music/noise was on in the bar until bar closed, which echoed through the floors. The sash window was broken and would not close - the top half had to remain open/down overnight (Storm Ashley hit overnight). No hot water for a morning shower (8:30am). The room had not been fully cleaned from the previous guests as there was an old sock, loose change and a piece of fruit (pear!) under the bedside table. Not a great experience.
