What guests think
Across reviews of Dovey Inn, guests consistently praise friendly, welcoming staff and comfortable, spacious sea-view rooms, while noting lively pub vibes can bring nighttime noise and that some maintenance or plumbing hiccups affect otherwise enjoyable stays.
Many highlight the scenic harbourfront location close to the beach and village amenities. Cleanliness draws plenty of praise, though a few note missed housekeeping, dated areas, or broken fixtures. On-site dining is generally enjoyed, but a few stays saw limited menus, a poor meal, or breakfast availability/refund issues. Overall, the stay leans more toward an authentic inn than a conventional hotel.

The hotel is a fully functional pub and hotel. This was not a problem for me. Clean room, friendly staff, comfortable bed and a great view from my window over a beautiful coastal bay. The only issue I had was that the shower temperature was difficult to control.

Aberdovey is a great place to visit and the location of Dovey Inn is perfect close to beach and shops, Great view from bedroom. We tend to eat out but the atmosphere in the Dovey is friendly and fun and dog friendly in the bar. Go often as we live only 1hour away.

Very busy in the bar and restaurant with insufficient staff to cope. The few staff there were, were excellent, but rushed off their feet and finding it difficult to cope. The public bar was noisy with loud music until midnight, the Friday, Saturday and Sunday I stayed, making it impossible to sleep any earlier.

Swift and easy check-in. The family room had two bedrooms which was a very pleasant surprise. Everything was spotlessly clean and the beds were very comfortable. Could have done with a rubber bath mat but found out later we could have asked for one. Similarly de-caff tea and coffee I guess. We had our 4-year-old granddaughter with us but there were no issues with noise from the bar below. Limited menu but food was very good. Steaks were lovely. Nice pint too. Great breakfast. Excellent service from friendly, attentive, courteous and efficient staff. Would stay again.

Just a lovely place room was really nice over looking the sea. The only problem was that they couldn’t get the ovens mended but it was out of their hands. So it was a limited menu but the meals we had were really nice. Good choice on breakfasts as well. The only thing is I think it would be really nice is to have some throw away paper place mats to place on the tables as sometimes a table gets a bit sticky.

Large family room with comfortable beds for our family of thee, but that’s where the positives end. Loud music/noise was on in the bar until bar closed, which echoed through the floors. The sash window was broken and would not close - the top half had to remain open/down overnight (Storm Ashley hit overnight). No hot water for a morning shower (8:30am). The room had not been fully cleaned from the previous guests as there was an old sock, loose change and a piece of fruit (pear!) under the bedside table. Not a great experience.

Aberdovey is a great place to visit and the location of Dovey Inn is perfect close to beach and shops, Great view from bedroom. We tend to eat out but the atmosphere in the Dovey is friendly and fun and dog friendly in the bar. Go often as we live only 1hour away.

Friendly team from reception to breakfast, nothing was too much. Food was good with quick service. Ideal for business trip though amazing views right on the beach for a holiday stay too

Fantastic room at the front of the hotel with a great bathroom. Good sized shower and fantastic free standing bath. Well decorated bar and restaurant with friendly staff but sadly let down by terrible food in the evening. Took breakfast next door in the cafe as did not want to eat there again.

A lovely large, clean room with a sea view. A very comfy bed, plenty of sockets by the bed and around the room and a decent sized TV. A great shower with plenty of hot water. We didn't have breakfast at the Inn but we did eat our evening meal there a few times. We always booked a table as it did look busy. The food was the usual pub grub and was hot and tasty. We would definitely stay here again.

Exemplary customer service and friendly staff - cannot fault them at all! Great dinner and breakfast too. Great location for anyone wishing to escape to a quiet fishing village and/or the local hills, whether for the views or watch the military jets flying low overhead (or below them!) Would very happily return and recommend! Highly recommend visitors also visit the birthplace inspiration behind Thomas The Tank Engine at nearby Tywyn Wharf Railway Station.

Swift and easy check-in. The family room had two bedrooms which was a very pleasant surprise. Everything was spotlessly clean and the beds were very comfortable. Could have done with a rubber bath mat but found out later we could have asked for one. Similarly de-caff tea and coffee I guess. We had our 4-year-old granddaughter with us but there were no issues with noise from the bar below. Limited menu but food was very good. Steaks were lovely. Nice pint too. Great breakfast. Excellent service from friendly, attentive, courteous and efficient staff. Would stay again.

Just a lovely place room was really nice over looking the sea. The only problem was that they couldn’t get the ovens mended but it was out of their hands. So it was a limited menu but the meals we had were really nice. Good choice on breakfasts as well. The only thing is I think it would be really nice is to have some throw away paper place mats to place on the tables as sometimes a table gets a bit sticky.

Thoroughly enjoyable stay at The Dovey especially as chose a sea facing room. Spacious, well stocked room and friendly staff. I can't comment on breakfast as we slept too well so didn't get up in time 😀 Easy parking in the public car park nearby.

Lovely 1 night stay. Room was a little tired around the edges but it was clean and comfortable. We couldn't open the window which was a shame as we had a sea view and would've been nice to hear the sea but there was air con so we managed to keep the room at a good temperature. The bed was really comfortable and the roll top bath and added bonus. The staff were very friendly & helpful. The food was typical Marstons pub grub.... safe and predictable. Would definitely stay again.
