Quirky hotel in excellent location for views over Cardigan bay. Hotel is an old residence and has plenty of character and original features. Room and bathroom werent the biggest, but was fine for the 2 of us.

Really friendly welcome and throughout our stay. Made to feel really comfortable. The room was amazing, with seaviews. Restaurant was relaxing and the food really good. Including the breakfast. Great location for exploring the area and only a short walk into Barmouth.

Liked: Amenities
This is a small hotel - about 10-12 rooms. Very limited menu and very basic choice for breakfast (I suppose you can’t have a big choice if there are only a handful of guests!). The restaurant is open for breakfast for about an hour and also for about an hour in the evening for dinner. The small restaurant/bar has very limited seating - so you’re asked to move/make way for others if you’re only having a beer! Nice view of the sea from restaurant. Viktor the waiter definitely wins in his work - he is the only person morning & night that serves you - and he serves you well. Overall, this is a small hotel that is a 3-star at best. Not sure why Expedia would rate it as a 4-star! The rooms are dated but acceptable. There’s ample parking for the small hotel.

Wonderful 4 night stay.

The hotel is lovely. It is a very old building but in the best location overlooking a vast expanse of the beaches and Cardigan bay. The owners Mike and Trudy are a lovely friendly couple who go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable. We also have to mention Victor who made us laugh every night in the restaurant. We came home after a 4 night stay feeling that we had made friends who we hope to see again next year.

Enjoyable visit

The hotel is rather tired, which is a shame because is is such an interesting building. We couldn’t understand why our bed in a turret room faced away from the sea (it didn’t look as if a lot of effort/cost would be required to turn it around). The cooked food we ate at breakfast and dinner was good quality. We enjoyed our stay.

Very pleased with the service, excellent. Comfortable down stairs around the bar and dining area. Again service very professional. My only concern was the bedroom and bathroom are very small. Difficult to access and function and out of scale with the rest of hotel. Lovely views over bay.

Stay at Tyr Graig Castle

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The decor may be dated for some but we thought it was impressive & was kept clean. They’ve kept it true to its history. The view from our balcony was stunning. Being able to sit & relax & watch the sunset was a memory we will cherish. The room & en-suite were small but plenty for what we needed, which was just a base in which to go explore from. The staff were very welcoming & couldn’t do enough for us. The breakfast & evening meals were lovely. We cannot recommend this place highly enough. We will most definitely be visiting again, and again.

We had a nice stay at this hotel; friendly staff, nice food, good sized bedroom and lovely views. We had a standard turret bedroom and whilst it was spacious, the en suite was really small and felt like a shower had been squeezed into a room that used to be a toilet room. There was no space to swing an earwig let alone a cat! The toilet had a cigarette burn on it and the lid on the plastic cistern didn’t fit on the tank. There were no towel rails and no comfortable space to get dry after a shower or get dressed. The state of the fixture and fittings in the en suite was dated and in need of updating. We DID have a nice stay at this hotel.
