The castle is magnificent. Caernarfon is a great base for exploring North Wales and Anglesey. Highlight of our stay was a return trip to Portmadog on the Welsh Highland railway, utterly delightful, cannot recommend highly enough!
We chose Caernarfon by accident as we were looking for somewhere close to Snowdon but we really lucked out. It's a beautiful town. The castle is one of the best I've been to and I love the royal history. The Welsh Highland Railway starts and ends here and it's a lovely day trip on a proper old fashioned steam train. Snowdon itself is a 15 minute car journey away and very easy to get to. The town is bustling in the day and quiet at night and considering we were wandering around late in the evening, we never felt unsafe. Will definitely return.
We were visiting for family reasons. We had dinner in the Black Boy Inn which I would highly recommend for the food, drinks menu, outside space, general history and atmosphere. We walked everywhere and were mainly in the town. We were met with friendly smiles and lovely staff everywhere. We were only there for a couple of days so not long enough to give a full review.
Enjoyed walking round the town and down to the harbour and castle, even with a crutch. My favourite moment was finding a freshly baked bread and butter pudding in Y Pantri, which cost 65 pence. It tasted divine and took me straight back to my childhood, as my mother used to make it often for her 6 children. Enjoyed meeting the staff in the charity shops, who were very friendly. Had a very expensive hot chocloate in the Angelsey Arms. Found the oldest and best pub/restaurant in the Black Boy Inn, with immaculately smart looking staff, who were exceptionally polite and attentive. I can't wait to return there.
There aren't a lot of things to do once you have visited the Castle and walked along the Promenade. The town is small but very pretty. We used Caernarfon as a base to visit the surrounding area really. There are some lovely restaurants, especially The Black Boy.
Snowdonia on the doorstep made the stay for me as I'm a climber and hiker. Its remoteness can mean travelling there from most parts of the UK can take a while. Having your own transport makes enjoying the surrounding area almost essential.
“Location is perfect for exploring the town as the Castle is a 2 minute walk from hotel also harbour,restaurants and bars are only a short walk away”
“Location is very good as the hotel is located next to the Caernarfon castle and easy to walk to city center.”
“Often when you stay in a hotel you wonder how they get such a high star rating, This one is truly exceptional, and although the room rate is a little more than I normaly budget for, I would say it is very good value, First choice to stay at if in the area.”
“Located in the old part of city very close to the castle. Unfortunately it rained for our stay but we still saw a huge amount. Staff were very friendly and helpful The hotel whilst very old has been renovated to a very comfortable level. The restaurant was good variety and quality.”
“Amazing place to stay,very clean. 2 mins walk to the town centre amazing view from the room. The owner was brilliant and couldn't do enough to help you with your stay. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. 10 out of ten.”
