Little Gem - Getaway

An enjoyable stay, use of the spa being free as a guest, 2 hour booking having the spa to ourselves was extra special, weather this be the same if hotel was busy, spa pool was quite small would have been quite full. Staff friendly and courteous. Highly recommend the Coctails, a little pricy, reduce to £9 as £13 bit steep, we would have had more.! We ate in the restaurant great choices nicly presented. £9 for a dessert again a little pricy.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Poor sound insulation between rooms. Some key staff were less than friendly. Provisions in room inadequate… tea bags, milk, tissues. Had to request. Bed uncomfortable. Hotel agreed to move us to another room where the bed was fine. BUT evening meal was very good. Certainly would not revisit, and it did have negative impact on the visit to the area.

Relaxing Break

Stay at the Kinmel was very enjoyable. Staff and room/ cleanliness excellent and grounds gorgeous. Very lucky with the weather so took full advantage of eating and drinking outside. Have a food allergy which staff made fully aware of and chef adapted menus for me when needed and provided tailored items for breakfast each day but would have been useful to be provided with milk alternative on coffee tray in room. Limited menu and not many vegan/vegetarian dishes in restaurant It would have been useful to know that best to book treatments when booking room as all fully booked when we arrived but we found other things to do in nearby Conwy and Rhyl. Overall very good short break.

Beautiful spa facilities, great breakfast and evening meal choices. Decent sized room, my only criticism would be the size of the TV as it’s a fair distance from the bed area to the TV and not everyone wants to sit on a sofa to watch TV at the end of a day of walking etc. Great staff, easy parking and nicely located to reach costal beaches.
