Belle Vue Royal Hotel  

Fabulous location right on the beach. Helpful, friendly staff. Old but comfortable rooms.

Extremely noisy. Can hear everything from the halls - perhaps a sign encouraging people to be quiet would help?

Staff were extremely friendly and very helpful. Everything was immaculately clean and the fook was OK. We had lunch and breakfast, both well cooked, well presented and served by the nicest staff.

My room was dingy and badly furnished like a hotel in the 60s. It was very clean and had clearly been recently decorated but the decoration was badly don and the wallpaper was all lifting long the seams. There was carpet in the bathroom and I had to sit sideways on the loo because of the way the room was fitted. Why not a shower cubicle instead of trying to squeeze in a full size bath?

Room decor slightly dated, i had room 16, 2 very large sea facing windows so had great views. This hotel was more than comfortable for my 6 night stay in Aber and would certainly stay again. Room 16 directly above reception so WiFi signal in room was very strong, which may not be the case in other rooms. With a little bit of refurb this could be a great hotel again rather than just a very good one.

TV position on wall is too high, needs to be moved down onto a corner shelf or table.

Helpful friendly staff.

Having my knees round my ears when sat on the loo!Bath was only 6 inch's away!

Friendly,helpful staff. Good breakfast.

No negative comments

The warm welcome from Diane (hope I got her name right?) who helped us carried our luggage up. Comfortable beds and pillows. View of Cardigan Bay and seagulls right off the window. Unforgettable! Yummylicious hot vegetarian English breakfast.

The hefty door. The hotel doesn't have lift. However the hotel staffs were very helpful with our luggage.

Convenient and friendly

A lack of a lift might troible some guests - but not me!

Good central location, superb view from sea-view room. Room was fairly small, but clean, comfortable and warm, with everything working OK.

Moderately expensive at high-season tariff (but probably worth it for the location alone)

Location, service (apart from early morning call), food, drink, bedroom view.

They forgot my early morning call.

Great Centreal local, everything in easy walk. Great Hotel and Staff, very accomodating.

Parking could be a bit tight if busy but that comes with a central local.

Excellent value for money home cooked food

Location

Shower wouldn'y work.Noise from next door's tv.

A few minutes walk from the shops and the beach was across the road

It's charm is it's age but the interior is very tired in parts! Our bathroom was not one you would like to relax in!!

The staff were really accommodating. Nothing was too much trouble. a very warm welcome and very helpful with inquiries. The room was very spacious and very clean. The beds/rooms were very comfortable with a wonderful view of the beach. The breakfast was excellent and also the Sunday lunch. We will definitely be staying there again when we return to Aberystwyth in Feb and June.

nothing to dislike.

location is fantastic, wonderful sea view, dinner was adequate, breakfast was good, staff very helpful and pleasant - we had a lovely stay and will definitely return when we next visit in the spring

the toast machine is a bit of a pain, and i think it would be easier for staff if pots of tea and coffee were put on your tables

Staff very friendly and helpful with directions etc I didn't have one problem a++++

staff were very helpful and efficient. Food in restaurant 5*

squeaky floorboards

Handy for the town

there was a rather musty smell in the corridors as if it hadn't been used in ages. Noisy students at 3 a.m in the morning

The Hotel is perfectly situated on Aberystwyth's coastline, this hotel has all the original features of a historical seaside town building, but has been really well maintained inside. The room was spacious and had a bay window overlooking the promenade, with an excellent seascape to admire. I was lucky to be here during a nice spell of weather. I stayed an extra night in the same room and enjoyed my time here immensely.

Excellent location Sea View

Friendly and helpfull staff. This was a quick business trip and I was working in the night so I could not use the hotel to its advantage as my stay was evening meal, work, sleep, breakfast, home. If I go to that part of the country again I would stay there again.

The hotel is in need of some tender care and re decoration. When it rained during the night the water was flowing over the gutters as they are full of weeds. I stayed in room 24 and some wallpaper is coming away from the walls.

staff very helpful. the location across the street from the boardwalk was very nice. hotel is convenient to town, bus & train stations, shopping, and places to get tea, snack, or fine dining.

Friendly , helpfull staff , clean comfortable rooms and a very good evening menu and good bar with good staff .

Excellent location on Aberystwyth promende with superb sea view. Large spacious twin room with sofa and room to spread out. Very good value for money.

General hotel decor a little tired. Limited car parking is mentioned in hotel information - parking is very limited to around 10 spaces.

I have stayed in other Aberystwyth sea-front hotels and for a small increase in price at the Belle Vue Royal, the increase in standards is high. The room was large and lovely, overlooking the sea. Staff were pleasant and friendly. Everything clean and nice quality. Will definitely stay here again.

Can't think of anything!
