Everything. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left it was a wonderful experience. Helpful staff,room was like a 5 star hotel. Spotlessly clean. Breakfast amazing. Could not fault anything.
Situated in one of the oldest streets in Llangollen and a few seconds from the high street, Gales has individual bedrooms with private bathrooms.

Location is great in the centre of the town, the owners are really kind and hospitable. The building is kind of old that contributes to the atmosphere and breakfast is very nice.

I’ve visited Chirk on many occasions for business and leisure. The village is quieter since the building of the bypass. One feature to see is the aqueduct. Nearby Pontcysyllte Aqueduct is famous but Chirk Aquaduct is impressive too. It runs alongside the railway viaduct over a deep valley. At its north end the canal enters a tunnel.

Disappointing. Don't be taken in.
Disappointing. Don't be taken in. It's not really a castle, its a stately home and not a very interesting one at that. Only part of the 'castle' can be viewed, what can be seen is not very interesting and poorly presented and not set in context. There were no information screens, very little signage and what information there was consisted of 'this is a painting of a person you've never heard of. This is another'. At £15 per person (!) this was grossly over-priced and certainly not worth the money

Unfortunately we were returning home from one funeral to prepare for another in a couple of days so we did not have time to visit any where except the adjacent restaurant but it looked a pleasant little town with lots of local sites such as the castle and Pontcysyllte aqueduct

We took a dayboat hire for the family out of the Anglo Welsh marina at Trevor and travelled down the canal down to Chirk, passing over the famous aqueduct. Following day we went to the British Ironworks near Oswestry and saw the Knife Angel sculpture. A great day out.

The hotel is outside Chirk, a few minutes drive. The town is quite small but has a good free car park. We couldn't visit the castle as it was closed due to bad weather. The Llangollen canal is nearby and good for walking. The aqauaduct is interesting. It's easy to get to NT places, Llangollen, Oswestry and Snowdonia National Park.

Chirk is just a small Village but cute and it has coffee shops and gift shops. Llangollen is close and it's generally a nice area to drive around.
Walks along the canal are a bonus and this is close to the Lion Quays resort..
The hotel is set in lovely grounds next to a canal where you can walk along and feed the ducks. There were loads of canal boats too!
The bar/restaurant is huge and is fresh and clean and very modern.
The food is good quality with everything you could want for breakfast.
The room was not the largest but the bed and pillows were so comfy.
The staff were super friendly and welcoming and made you feel at ease.
Great place to stay before heading off into beautiful Wales.
Will stay again
Thanks
We booked the hotel to enable us to go to the International Eisteddfod. It was the ideal location. The hotel was good and suited our needs. The staff were all friendly and helpful. If there was a downside, it was the noise caused by traffic on the road outside. I would certainly consider staying at this hotel again when visiting the International Eisteddfod at Llangollen. Chirk is within easy driving distance from this venue.
The HAND never lets us down, ACE staff, good facilities, good variety of menu throughout the day, pet friendly, clean and tidy, nothing too much trouble for staff to sort out, car parking is safe and convenient..great location for us as we have family either side of the hotel.
location was ideal for a wedding that we were going to - just a 10 minute drive away.
