Lovely staff. The sunday roast was one of the best I've had from a restaurant ( & plenty of it ). The sea view was incredible, we actually saw dolphins from our room. There was ample tea/coffee & milk, a large tv but the beds were absolutely incredible, they were so comfortable as was the linen. If I was to stay again in New Quay I would 💯 stay at the Penwig hotel again xx

Room was superb, we were upgraded to room 7 which was really a suite, with large windows overlooking Cardigan Bay. Two cocktails for £10 was fantastic start to stay. Disabled parking (and normal parking) on road directly outside. Restrictions apply but not after 30/09.The real bonus for this hotel was the service and friendliness of every member of staff.

What a find

What an amazing find. We stayed in the family room at the back of the hotel. Spotlessly clean. Beds were SO comfortable. Excellent staff, really welcoming and helpful. Gorgeous food in the hotel and my favorite wine. Hotel is perfectly situated, looking out over the harbour. Beautiful breakfast in the morning too. I will be returning, very impressed.

Short break away

Stayed in New Quay many times but this was our first stay at The Penwig and it didnt disappoint. We booked a sea view room which was lovely as you could sit in the morning and watch the dolphins out in the bay. The room was spacious and spotless. The breakfasts were tasty with a few choices and also catered for vegetarians. The staff were friendly, polite and nothing was too much trouble. There is no onsite parking but we used the carpark around the corner. It does get a bit noisey early in the am with deliveries to the pub and surrounding businesses etc but it wouldnt deter us in staying again.

We didn't have wifi. I had to go to the restaurant to get wifi. I was pretty disappointed because he said it was due to the heat but the restaurant had wifi. They should just say there's no wifi.

Car park within walking distance to hotel, room lovely and clean, fabulous sea views from the room and resturant, seating inside and out. Resturant does get very busy. Breakfast quite nice. Very friendly staff. Only down side when sitting outside dogs kept barking and owners seemed oblivious, which did spoil the peace.

We enjoyed staying here. There were a couple of things that let it down, for example the handle to the door was broken and kept coming loose when pulled, and when we first arrived to check in it felt like we were waiting a long time as the bar customers were being prioritised over hotel guests (we saw people who arrived after us served before us). That being said, we had a sea view room which was lovely and really enjoyed the proximity to the harbour. There is no parking on site but the Rock Street car park just around the corner was good value for 24hrs and only a stone’s throw from the accommodation so not too bad for carrying our bags. Breakfast the next morning was really nice and the check out process was easy. We would consider returning if in the area again, especially if the maintenance issues were looked at e.g. broken door handle

Great place

A very comfortable night with a view of a beach and Cardigan Bay. A very good gluten free breakfast. I saw dolphins in the harbour, many sea birds including a cormorant with a fish and I had a lovely cliff walk.
