I stayed here with two visitors from abroad and we all found it to be a pleasant experience. The bedrooms are very well appointed and clean. Sea view rooms are especially pleasant. The building is old and with character but has been renovated where appropriate. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Breakfast was excellent with a wide choice. I note there... More

Four of us fad a two day break here. The rooms were small but comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. We had two evening meals, one in the restaurant and on in the bar. The food in both was of a high standard and very good value for money. The breakfasts were also very... More

Stayed one night a Penhelig Arms and was shown to room 3 which was beautiful. A lovely big room which included seating arranged to show off the view of the bay through the window. The bed was really comfortable and the large bathroom a delight. Excellent meal in the bar that evening and a very comfortable sleep in the large... More

Upon arrival at the hotel I was greeted by a very welcoming and friendly member of staff. They explained everything from the location of my room to bar and restaurant times and facilities. They also explained about the local area and places to visit. There was a good variety of drinks available and a lovely menu for the bar meals... More

I have stayed here a number of times and the food is very good. If you are lucky enough to eat here do order the scallops. They are perfect - never over cooked; never under cooked! Great food and service.

My boyfriend booked this hotel for a birthday surprise. Disappointed with the lack of service where he normally stays he hopped on to late rooms and booked this one. Upon arrival we were welcomed by the staff who checked us in and directed us to our room. Room three was more like a suite than a standard double with views... More

As a large extended family with a property just minutes away from the Penhelig Arms, we are SO very disappointed to see the Penhelig Arms fall from being a superb busy service-led gastro pub & restaurant to no more than a downmarket bog-standard pub experience. Run previously by a team dedicated to delivering impeccable detail & fabulous food to both... More

Stayed at the hotel for three nights over the Easter weekend. Arrived at hotel and managed to park in the small car park opposite the hotel, room only for 6 to 7 cars. There is some on street parking nearby and a pay and display car park around the corner. If you are staying in Penhelig House or Bodhelig you... More

What a shame - this place used to be great. The floor was dirty - dogs everywhere when we visited for a Bar Mael. The windows were dirtl - I know its by the seaside - but a quick wipe daily makes the place look a lot better. The prices of the food were I feel overpriced - the most... More
