My stay at the lodge was highly disappointing. The room lacked a bar fridge and in-room services, which was inconvenient. Room service was inconsistent, arriving at unpredictable times, and the bed was uncomfortable. Additionally, the washroom was designed for accessibility, which didn’t align with our expectations for the price paid. Overall, the experience did not reflect the value we expected for the cost.

The Chateau's Lodge was a little disappointing and quite ordinary compared to the main chateau. It was clean and comfortable, very close to the town and located in a beautiful part of the world. Our view across the strait separating Anglesey from the mainland was quite nice. The staff were very pleasant and welcoming.

Chateau by the water

Such an amazing building, both inside and out. Views from the terraced gardens were beautiful. We stayed in the adjacent lodge but ate breakfast in the chateau which was superb. Our room had such a lovely view and parking was good. One slight niggle was the noise of the plumbing from other rooms in this building. Also the gardens looked a little neglected. Such a shame because they could be beautiful.

Fabulous hotel located in a wonderful/beautiful location, in a picturesque part of Wales. Both evening meal and breakfast were of a very high standard and the staff very friendly. We stayed in the lodge and whilst high standard an issue on our second night prevents 5 stars.

The chateau is absolutely stunning and unique. Very picturesque, especially by the sea front. The welcoming was incredibly friendly and all staff were helpful. We opted for the best suite, so a little bit more on the pricey side for a nights stay. First impressions, the chateau had plenty of character and in keeping for the era it was built. The room was massive, bathtub in bedroom by the window (beautiful sea views), and a huge walk in shower which was really nice. Unfortunately, the cleanliness of the room was questionable - bath wasn’t cleaned properly, coffee machine not emptied, dirty face towel in the shower. Not a deal breaker but alongside this, the room was just pretty worn (we stoped in the duke suite). Cracked tiles, cracked window pane, wallpaper peeling, lots of wear marks on the wooden furniture… it all just needed a bit of tlc and a tidy up both deep clean and also restoration. Not that we used the tv but it’s tiny vs the bed. We still loved the place and only gave feedback upon departing but it was more an fyi for some quick wins. I saw reviews about the garden saying it’s a bit tired and I can appreciate that, again some tlc needed as it’s all going a bit wild but still beautiful nonetheless. Incredible seafront views. We didn’t have an evening meal here so can’t comment but the bar was good. Breakfast next morning was average at best - small selection of buffet food and sadly pretty tasteless. Overall, we had a great stay and a really good time.

The chateau is beautiful and the views are stunning, the receptionist and staff are very good however some things let it down. The room we stayed in was in the lodge, and I could hear the bloke in the room next to us snore and turn over in bed. The room had reproduction furniture and generally had the overall feel of cheap rather than luxury. We ate in the restaurant which had little atmosphere, the food was very good, however for the prices paid the annoyances were cheap stainless steel cutlery, cheap crockery, a side plate that was laid on the right rather than the left and no bread served with the meal. It just felt like corner cutting was happening, which would be fine if what we had paid was at a lower price but it was an expensive meal and overnight stay where actually you expect geniune wood furniture over cheap ikea quality and proper cutlery.

Great building but not as good as expected

The beginning was not as expected with nobody on reception as they were serving behind the bar, we had to go and find that individual to get checked in. Also the reception was full of smoke from the fire and was quite choking to the point that the receptionist had to fully open the doors to take the smoke out but we were in the middle of a storm with wind and rain.

Recommend 100% 😀

Fab place to stay. It may seem a little dated inside, a few bits of flaking paint etc but this only adds to the overall feel. It really is a stunning place with lots of sitting rooms and nooks and crannies to explore. Breakfast was great and the location is perfect for exploring both the Island and the mainland being only 3 mins from the Menai bridge. Last, but not least the staff were absolutely brilliant. Nothing was too much trouble, and they encouraged us to explore the Chateau itself, and the gardens. We would definitely recommend this hotel.
