We enjoyed the closeness of everything and being able to walk to most places. It was an interesting town which we look forward to exploring more fully on our next visit.
We ate at a restaurant right next to the station, The Athro lounge, good selection for vegetarians and child friendly, to be recommended.

Good road and rail links make it easy to explore this beautiful region, or you can just hit the coastal path to do some brilliant walking. The short but challenging walk to Borth, for instance, has dramatic scenery but you can then catch the train back to Aberystwyth.
For train fans, and the less fit, you can catch the funicular up Constitution Hill for a great panoramic view and I understand there’s a steam train but I ran out of time.
However don’t expect golden sands, rather black, coarse grit.
For dinner with a difference try Paprika for authentic Hungarian food and wines.

If you enjoy walking - either on streets or coastal paths - Aberystwyth is a good place to do so. We walked from the hotel to the Cliff railway and back on a couple of occasions - but using different routes each time. If you are interested in other things, we didn't visit many locations in the town (it was a stop-over on our way home) but I understand there are a number of attractions - including the Vale of Rheidol Railway which runs trains the 14+ miles to Devil's Bridge.
A few miles north of the town is the very interesting Dyfi Osprey Centre with a brilliant set of volunteers and - at this time of the year - good views of the breeding pair of ospreys from the centre's observation platform 200m away from the nest.

A great museum, really interesting and a bit different from what you might expect. Plenty of choice for restaurants, etc. The funicular railway is amazing and good value. The scenery from the top of the hill is amazing. There is not much left of the old fort but it well worth going beyond it to the harbour. And all the people we met were very friendly towards tourist.

Walk along sea front is beautiful, the cliff- train & view at the top is fantastic, museum in old cinema was impressive also visit to Devil's Bridge & surrounding valleys brilliant. We ate at Weathspoons for good value food and really efficient service.
Well worth a visit.
We had a fabulous stay at Bodalwyn Guest House. Check in was smooth and done easily with the room key left for you at reception.
The location of the guest house is perfect - a minute walk to the seafront and only five minutes to most of the shops.
The room itself was lovely, with a massive comfy bed and gorgeous bay window. We even had a bit of a sea view!
Overall, I would recommend the guesthouse to anyone and wouldn't hesitate to rebook! The perfect base for a visit to Aber.
Hotel had been refurbished during lock-down so was all new. Lovely bed, excellent shower, new carpets throughout. Very firendly staff who let us in early because of the atrocious weather and storm (we had planned to sight-see in Aberystwyth but the wind and rain made that impossible. It was lovely to get into the comfort of the room.
Hotel is just 100 m from the beach and sea prominade.
Excellent location in Aberystwyth right on the seafront perfect for walking with excellent views.
Staff were welcoming and friendly on arrival and during meal service.
Both breakfast and lunch were very good and we found it convenient to have a full bar menu and drinks at the hotel.
Very pleased all round with our stay
The rooms are on two different floors and it gives a kind of "family house" feeling. The town is absolutely charming and the accomodation is on a very central place, just few steps from the beach. It is not possible to park in front of the house, but there is a cheap parking lot nearby.
Excellent breakfast,staff were friendly and helpful room on the ground floor as I am disabled, so clean and bright lovely sea view would recommend to anyone wanting to visit Aberystwyth we would visit this hotel again A+++++
the view was excellent. Aberystwyth is a jewel in Wales crown. the location of the hotel on the beach front has the makings of an excellent stay. Unfortunately this was let down by the standards of the staff and service.
Lovely welcoming reception and breakfast waiting staff. Great sized family room. Hotel was easy to find if you are new to Aberystwyth and has free parking. Close to larger shops. Convenient if you are visiting the Uni.
Lovely stay in Aberystwyth in this newly opened hotel. The rooms were clean and the location perfect. The open kitchen was a great feature and the refreshments were very welcome. We would happily stay again!
Great location. We managed to get a parking space in the hotel parking, which was good. Otherwise we would have struggled with parking. Excellent breakfast and evening meal. Staff very helpful.
Once we found the hotel all was well it is well organised and the rooms are nice
Aberystwyth’s one way system makes things hard as a stranger to the area but the hotel do their best to help
Great location next to the pier and lots of shops, but our room was not facing the road so it was quiet and very comfortable. A great value for money hotel, and they are pet friendly!
