The hotel was excellent, and the castle ruins and gardens were beautiful. The breakfast was very good with a wide choice, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Ruthin was a lovely town with good pubs and restaurants. Sadly we did not see any of the ghosts. Would highly recommend this hotel if you stay in the area.

Derek

Great location, fantastic building a real feeling of history. On the whole the staff are friendly and very helpful. Rooms where spotless and the room turned down while we ate, very nice upon our return. The town is very nice and worth a visit. Good value for money, I enjoyed my stay.

Ruthin Castle Hotel and Spa offers a retreat steeped in history and nestled in acres of parkland. Next to an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in North Wales, the castle dates back to the legend of King Arthur. It features exquisite dining, a cooked Welsh breakfast, and a distinctive spa.

All rooms are individually styled using contemporary décor and all include a modern private bathroom. Every room has at least 1 flat-screen TV and some feature a large standalone bath and a four-poster bed.

Located beside the rustic woodland grounds of the castle's moat, the spa offers a selection of treatments. Guests can also enjoy a calming relaxation area and thermal suite, with a sauna and steam room.

The English town of Chester is less than a 40-minute drive away and so is the start of the M53 Motorway. Gwydyr Forest Park is 20 miles west of the hotel and 20 miles south of that lies the Snowdonia National Park.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.1 for a two-person trip.

“No good wifi.”

We got 2 rooms, they were on the opposite ends of the hotel. Both rooms had no wifi, which was really disappointing. We did call the front desk, they said they would try something to fix it. But it still didn't work for the whole time we were there. Someone else mentioned that they didn't have wifi the whole time they were there when we were checking out, so if you are relying on the wifi as your main source of communication beware that there is a good chance it won't work. One room was fine, older but neat and tidy. The other rooms was dirty there where spider webs on the window seal and there was mold up the whole window frame, you could tell that they had not swept the flooring next to the bathtub. Also the hallways leading to the room has visible water damage. Very disappointing.
The castle is big and there is a lot of places to explore. Also there history to the castle.

Croissants would have been nicer warmed. Hot plates for the cooked breakfast are best . A tea pot would have have been useful

It’s quite dated inside and could do with a lick of paint. That said, it’s quite quirky and I like that they haven’t tried to hard to modernise it or it would lose its charm.
It’s a castle! What more needs to be said.

“Ruthin Castle weekend visit”
- • Leisure trip

I didn’t feel the room was a ‘deluxe’ standard as there wasn’t even a fridge in the room. Room service was very poor. I repeated tried to phone the room service number with no answer to make a dinner order. No one answered. We decided to go out for dinner and when passing the reception desk ask for an ice bucket to be delivered to our room in an hour and a half. No ice was delivered. Having stayed in many international hotels, I do not feel this level of service, for even minor requests such as an ice bucket, are in keeping with a 4 stars rating. Despite this failing, the staff were friendly and courteous at all times. The reception team were helpful when we asked for taxi information.
The grounds were superb and location was great.

Unfortunately, rain kept us from exploring the grounds as much as we would have liked; however, we certainly enjoyed the castle atmosphere.
I loved the history surrounding this castle. The dining room was elegant and lovely and the breakfast was very good.

Breakfast was good and the bed was very comfortable. The room was overall clean and nicely decorated.

Location was brilliant. Short walk into town. Property was well maintained and I was a little concerned it would smell musty... it didn’t 👍 Rooms were spacious and luxurious. Felt like a Queen hehe...

- • Leisure trip

Despite asking for quiet room and being assured that noise was not an issue, it was annoying that there were problems in 3 out of the 3 rooms we were shown. Due to the age of the property and the desperate need for serious refurbishment and repair, the en suite facilities were noisy as was the air conditioning. The customer services assured us he would sort out a reduction on the bill and/or future 50% saving nothing ever materialised and even an email to the director resulted in no action. Disgraceful
Staff were very good and helped tremendously. Hotel looked the part.
