Inn Anglesey Arms

Harbour Front, Caernarfon, LL55 1SG, United Kingdom –

*9.2* Caernarfon Castle: only 4 minutes away! (850 feet by foot)

Location in a great place. Breakfast was very nice. Free parking

Joyce, United Kingdom

They were very welcoming, and were very obliging as we have a small dog. CARON (i THINK HER NAME WAS) was VERY helpful and kind every morning serving breakfast She was a real asset to the hotel. We had a spacious room with ensuite bathroom with lovely view . and the entrance to the accommodation was outside of the pub along the side which was really convenient. With parking close by.

Christine, United Kingdom

Outstanding location. The pub is nice, food is good and affordable. Rooms are tiny as bathroom. Be warned. But very clean. Part of the castle wall. Beautiful location and lovely staff

Dcinnv, United States of America

The very best location. At a Castle! Can't ask for more. Wonderful staff. Breakfast delicious as were the evening meals Loved the fish and chips. Wake up to sea gulls nearby.

A former 18th-century Customs House, The Anglesey Arms is a traditional tavern is built into the walls of Caernarfon Castle. With free on-site parking, the hotel overlooks the harbor entrance, offering stunning views across the Menai Straits to Anglesey.

The cozy rooms feature a TV, free Wi-Fi, tea and coffee facilities, and some have views across the Menai Straits. All rooms have private bathroom facilities.

With a variety of real ales and world wines, the pub entertains guests with regular live music events. It serves food daily. A full cooked breakfast using fresh, local produce is available in the morning, along with Continental options. A lunch and dinner menu are also on offer.

Snowdonia National Park is only 15 minutes’ drive away from Anglesey Arms, and the Welsh Highland Heritage Railway, 19 miles away, offers steam train travel to Porthmadog.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.4 for a two-person trip.

Everything was great and I cannot honestly say anything negative. It is a old pub with old world style with great people! What else could you want?
The location of the property is spectacular! The staff were so welcoming and made us feel welcome as soon as we arrived. The food is fabulous and I would not hesitate to stay and eat there again. Gorgeous little village and a well worth the trip!

“Less than satisfied.”

Parking: Granted parking online on the premises, however upon arrival the car park seemed to only have approximately 5 spaces in which were all taken and 90% by staff. The car park was a shambles with people moving cars and then immediately blocking you in making you feel prisoner or that it would be too much hassle to bother moving your car. Staff: The young staff weren’t polite and were quite rude in their body language and how they presented themselves. Clearly this behaviour is acceptable in that business as no one batted an eyelid. However, when returning the room key, a young girl just took the key and walked off with no acknowledgement or appreciation that we had chosen that hotel or their service. To further this rude and despicable behaviour by managing staff and younger staff, they decided to get cigarettes and sit on the bench with no care in the world. By sitting on the bench, I mean the young girl was quite literally sat crossed-leg on the bench top, not the seating, smoking and not giving a damn. Overall I thought the staff weren’t very welcoming or polite and quite rude, apart from one gentleman who showed our room. Another place to avoid is Cafe Mae in the square, we wanted to find a small coffee shop for a coffee after not feeling welcome enough or even willing enough to give any more of our money to the staff at the hotel. They offer two breakfast plates, small and large. A simple polite question of possibly replacing the mushrooms and tomatoes with a hash brown on the small breakfast (as you didn’t get one anyway) was rudely stopped by a man serving coffees in such a way that we stated how rude it was and we felt criminal for even asking such a question with the response we got. I would say overall the experience from both places was far from satisfying and we found the locals VERY rude. Avoid this area.
One member (man) of staff was nice, and helpful who greeted us at the bar and took us to our room. The bed was comfy and the room was nice with a good view.

“Not quite what we imagined”
- • Leisure trip

- • Standard Family Room
- • Stayed 1 night

The room, a family room with a double bed and a single was very basic. Whilst linen was clean and fresh, the room was in need of major decoration. The shower / toilet was effectively in what looked like a cupboard and was fitted with a macerator which made a very loud noise when either the toilet was flushed or the water run. Essentially if others were asleep, operation would certainly disturb them. Decorators were on site when we visited so maybe there is a refurbishment program already underway. The view from the room was lovely but ruined by the fact the windows were very dirty, both inside and out. The overall appearance of the pub / B&B was shabby.
Staff were pleasant and very attentive. Location is ideal for the town centre and sightseeing at the castle with great views across to Anglesey. Good breakfast.

“Great location, friendly staff, good food, needs a little tender loving care.”
- • Business trip

Room was updated to good standard, however kettle to big to get water from small sink, so had to use the shower, a bottle of water by the kettle would have fixed it, no clock in the room and no mirror, so when bathroom mirror steamed up difficult to do make up. The room was small and cosy but could do with a small chair as nowhere to sit only on the bed. I am sure the decorating will extend to the corridors and hallways as really does need an overhall. I hope this is constructive but would have made a difference to my stay.
Location was great, next to castle and overlooking the water, room had just been redecorated and was to a good standard, some little things could improve further, i felt safe lady travelling on her own, pub grub was great, breakfast lovely and hot.

There was no wardrobe or even a chest of drawers to hang any clothes. The room decor was lovely but unfinished. The bed had obviously been broken and held together by a plank of wood with sharp corners which my husband grazed his leg on. Only 1 small and 1 large towel for 2 people. asked at reception if there should be a wardrobe was told "if there is not one then no" On meeting the owner we asked him about the wardrobe and his reply was the builder has forgot to build it. We were there for 4 days as it was my husbands birthday treat and had to leave our clothes in the suitcase. Breakfast was an absolute disaster. Ordered cooked breakfast then was told "wev'e no bacon or if we have I cant find it and wev'e run out of hash browns. Ordered tea to drink only got demerara sugar the poor woman was so flustered and disorganised and thought it was acceptable to shout from the kitchen area "who has ordered beans" after wandering round with somebodys breakfast for 5 minutes. The next morning were told good news wev'e got bacon and hash browns when it arrived it was inedible rock hard bacon that you couldn't cut and hash browns so overcooked they were almost black on the outside and there was nothing left of the inside only grease. we were asked if we wanted toast which was brought to the table on its own with no butter or anything to put on it. when we asked for some 3 little pats of butter were thrown on to the table. The tea and coffee provided in the room was not replenished, and bins were not emptied while we were there and we had to ask for clean towels. The last morning we couldn't face the prospect of another disastrous breakfast so went out to a cafe. We couldn't wait to leave. the Anglesey Arms I am a Genius member and regularly use hotels booked through them but this is the worst place I have ever stayed and feel completely ripped off with the amount we paid.
Lovely location and fantastic views from our room.
