What a beautiful find. This property was originally chosen for the size of the car park as we were driving a van and trailer, needing safe parking. My goodness, the car park is huge. When we entered the hotel, Gary met us. He is so kind and gave us loads of information that was required, also very knowledgeable about the history of the hotel and the area. We are in the hotel restaurant. The meals were great and £70 for 3 main meals with alcoholic drinks. We then walked about the downstairs area, found a separate bar with pool table and darts. Breakfast was included with our room. At 7am sharp we were again greeted by Gary who served the nicest freshly cooked breakfast and was very attentive. We will definitely return to this property and spend some more time there to explore the area. Thank you Gary and staff for a fantastic stay

This is a great small town family run hotel in the best Welsh tradition and it was a pleasure to stay there. The facilities were good and the range of food available was outstanding of high quality and often sourced locally. The management and staff worked with great application and good humour to meet the varied requirements of their guests. The hotel is well situated for access to the open coast and its waymarked paths; for example on an evening walk to the nearby harbour we noted huge moving shoals of mackerel being picked off by Gannets. Highly commended.

Really traditional hotel and pub/restaurant. Food was really good and freshly cooked. Service was excellent I made a bit of a mistake asking for a full English breakfast. Apparently it's Welsh. I couldn't actually tell the difference though. 😁

I stayed here in a family room with my partner, son and dog and we had a great time. Check-in was seamless. The owners greeted us so nicely and made such a fuss of my dog. Immediately a very warm and homely feel. We are already planning our return. 5* for everything apart from property condition/facilities as it is rather dated- HOWEVER, everywhere is spotless.

This family run, pet friendly hotel gives excellent value for money. The staff are friendly and helpful. Although an older building, efforts have been made ...redecoration, new furniture throughout. The "cooked to order" breakfast was excellent and a great improvement on the usual buffet style. A very good base to travel around the island. Unfortunately on one evening the kitchen was needing some work. It would have been helpful to know this sooner to arrange food elsewhere.

We stayed for 4 nights at the Dinorben Arms Hotel, as a base to walk the nearby sections of the Wales Coast Path. It's an old and interesting hotel that serves a wide mix of visitors to the area, and local people, as a hotel should do. The staff were all excellent - the proprietors themselves set the scene - everybody was friendly, courteous and helpful. We enjoyed our stay very much - so much better than a modern & bland box of a hotel belonging to a national chain.
