2. The Glengower

1.3 km from National Library of Wales

"The Glengower was perfect for our two night stay in Aberystwyth. Our room on the third floor provided a good night's sleep and was a good size, with a good bathroom. One thing to note is that there is no lift, so if that is an issue for you, you would be advised to go for a lower floor. Breakfast was excellent, with a wide range of options. We took advantage of the excellent evening meal from the bar, which we ate on the terrace at the front with a sea view, but which could have also been eaten...

Top National Library of Wales Hotel Reviews

Starling Cloud, Aberystwyth by Marston’s Inns

8/10 Good

"Solid choice in a city without much. If you're looking for solid, clean, yet straightforward accommodations without surprises, it is a good choice. Many others are funky and falsely advertised."

The Glengower

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely view from the room. Comfortable bed, and clean hotel.Friendly staff and a delicious breakfast. We would recommend this hotel and would like to stay again in the future."

gwesTY Guest House

8/10 Good

"This is a quirky place just off the promenade ,there are no staff at reception but an envelope with all details and actual keys to your room and front door.We could see the sea from the bay window and had a shared bathroom ,there are rooms with en suite but fully booked for our stay. The breakfast was excellent with plenty of vegan and vegetarian options,two cheerful girls cooking,no sign of the owners but it all worked smoothly ,also the eggs are from a local farm."

Castle Hotel

8/10 Good

"I'm glad that I stayed at The Castle Hotel finally. It was very pleasant! My room was spacious and had nice views out of the windows, the bed was comfortable, the staff were pleasant. It wasn't right in the middle of Aber, so it was quiet (minus the noise from the car racing - but I had a great view for it). Easy walk right down to the sea. The only drawback was not having a lift, but that is pretty common and my fault for having a heavy suitcase! I would definitely stay again."

"Great bathroom and comfy bed"

Queensbridge Hotel
