The welcome, the bar, the restaurant ,standard of room were all excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay
My only "complaint" is that the shower in the room let down the standard of everything else . Hot enough but such a weak shower !

The location was perfect. Directly across the street from the beach. Comfortable bed and really cozy room. The bathroom was very clean with a walk-in shower. Restaurant and bar on the ground floor. Very close to the incline railroad that travels to the top of a nearby hill with a spectacular view. A GREAT value for the money. Late May weather was beautiful. Breakfast was included in the price. First time here and was very fortunate in my choice. WOW!
Please note: First time visitors should not expect a brand new structure. This is not a dislike for me but some people, especially those from the US, (I am a US citizen) may expect something different. The Glengower is a well-kept historic structure. It is clean, comfortable and staffed with truly excellent staff. There is no AC but cool ocean breeze, open window and cold nights provide comfortable environment if daytime outside air is warm. Some visitors may not want to stay in an older hotel but the Glengower adds a wonderfully unique flavor you will never get at a chain hotel.

I actually arrived on the wrong day - I had booked for the following day by mistake. The staff were brilliant and sorted me out a room without making me feel like a nuisance!
The bar and restaurant are lovely, overlooking the sea. The food was fantastic.
Nothing really - I had a twin room and would have preferred a double bed, but as I said, that was my fault!

The View
Lovely airy comfortable room. Very welcoming. Tasty sausages for breakfast.
Parking. I drove round and round for 20+ minutes before resorting to parking outside the front door on white line. Fingers crossed that the traffic warden will let me off as I checked in then went to move the car!!!

What can I say? From the welcoming,friendly, helpful staff to the spotless room, comfortable bed and choice of breakfasts. I will not hesitate to book again when staying in Aberystwyth.
I can imagine parking may be tricky at busier times of the year. Not for my visit though. Sorry, nothing negative to say.

Breakfast was really nice. You could have cereal, fruit, yoghurt and fruit juice. Unlimited Tea and coffee brought to the table by a lovely waitress. Then a choice of full breakfasts - veggie, Welsh or build your own with an opportunity to take something with you if required.
There's nothing that we didn't like. We would definitely return.

Firstly the staff, everyone were exceptionally pleasant and welcoming. The position of the hotel was very convenient. We found everything about the hotel was to our liking including the food which was exceptional for the cost.
Apart from the weather, remember this was Wales in January we liked everything.

View was brilliant over the sea.
Breakfast was very good and selection catered for all tastes/requirements
Room was very comfortable and temperature was good.
I had a concern about the drainage of water in the shower. At one point I thought it was going to overflow onto the bathroom floor. I did raise my concern at breakfast the next day but checked out before knowing if the issue had been looked into.
