Chose this as being town hotel with good reviews when taking my daughter to see Aberystwyth University on their Open Day. The recent reviews were good, so I booked in for one night. The hotel, like Aberystwyth, a bit dated, a bit tired, but pleasant enough. Staff friendly and we booked in at the bar and went to our room.... More

We booked three rooms, two had wonderful sea views. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The bathrooms was a touch on the small side. We also had 4 cycles which the hotel were more happy to store in a locked room for us which was very helpful. Good beer and a great breakfast. Certainly worth checking out if you are... More

My husband and I had a very enjoyable 3 day break at this hotel. The lady serving the breakfast was very friendly and cooked an excellent omelette for me. I would recommend this hotel to any of my friends or family.

We booked a Fri and Sat night, upgraded to a seaview room with sunsets to die for. Room was large and well equiped. Breakfasts were plentiful and well cooked, with unlimited beverages and toast. Staff always polite and friendly. Only down side was on the first day our towels were stale, with fresh one on the following morning.

We liked very much our 3 days spent in Glengower. Very cosy atmosphere, friendly and flexible staff, excellent welsh breakfast (altough there could be more fresh fruits, like salad offered). The room were clean with a beautiful view on the sea (great sunset can be watched from the room or the restaurant downstairs) despite not enough space for clothes-storage. The... More

Just got back from a nights stay at the glengower. The hotel is in a lovely location. Just at the end of the promenade. There is plenty to do. Coastal walks. And good restaurants in town. The room was spacious and clean. Little old fashioned but added to its character. Would definitely go back . All in all a great... More
