Great stay!
We had an amazing view, the tub was great, there service was good and the food was enjoyable.
I appreciate a fan being included, and that the windows opened so you could listen to the ocean.
Stairs are a little steep, but other than that a great stay.

Pennhelig Arms is the perfect place to stay to explore the area. The staff, Adam, Barry, Ollie, and all others were friendly and kind for our entire stay. The bar and restaurant are cozy and convenient and the food tasty and well prepared, great fish and chips. Overall it was a very pleasant stay in Aberdovey.
If we could change one thing it would be that one night we returned just before 9 pm and the restaurant was open until 9:30 but the kitchen wouldn't cook anything because they shut down at 8 pm. Disappointed in that but all else was good.

A Big Improvement on Previous Visit
Things have improved since our last stay about 18 months ago.
Room was clean & excellent view.
Staff were helpful
Exterior could do with some maintenance here & there but guess that’s down to Marston / Brains to sort out.
Overall a big improvement from previous visit
Breakfast is now a extra but good & decent price

The sea view apartment is located in a nice spot , it sleeps 6 people and very spacious ,nice upstairs bedroom and on suite, there is two sofa beds down stairs which could do with replacing as they were very uncomfortable to sit on as there were well worn, the outside was nice to sit on the balcony and chill but could do with a lick of paint . Staff was very nice and friendly and breakfast was nice

Excellent Food
The staff at the Penhelig were great, so friendly and helpful. Food in the restaurant was excellent, lots of choice and everything we had was delicious. Best omelette for breakfast i have ever had.
Can I suggest a mirror over the dressing table, as although a hairdryer is supplied, very difficult to use it with no mirror.
Outside of Hotel could do with a lick of paint and a little bit of TLC as the staff and quality of food deserve it.
