    The Good The Bad and The Ugly…read more The Good This was a bucket list wish trip. We've been wanting to get to see Portmeirion for 30 years and this was the year!!! We booked a room in the hotel and it included breakfast and we decided against having dinner there because as luck would have it the yearly Christmas craft and food festival was going on at the grounds. We enjoyed the fair and in the evening we sat in front of one of the fires. Husband reading and me knitting. Wonderful relaxing visit. The public rooms were old world gracious and cozy. The bar had a nice selection of drinks to enjoy. Our room was beautiful and we had two windows. One over the river and one up to the village. It was cold and rainy during our visit but believe it or not we came for this weather, being from Florida we kind of miss the cold. The Bad First morning breakfast was a full Welsh breakfast and was good but the second day, the last day and the one we will remember was horrible. I got the salmon eggs Benedict and husband an omelette. His breakfast came out steaming, mine - I almost had to chip off the ice. Okay there wasn't ice on my eggs but there was not a degree of warmth over room temperature and the room was cold. Couldn't catch the eye of a server. They were too busy cleaning up getting the room set for lunch. I had one bite of my eggs and pushed them aside. I went to fix my cup of tea and there was only two sugar cubes in the sugar bowl. What???? Thank goodness the table next to us was empty so we just swapped out. No salt and pepper on the table either. You would think the servers would notice that the food hasn't been eaten and ask about it. The Ugly Finally got the attention of our server. I told him my eggs were cold and inedible and if he had checked on us it could have been corrected during breakfast hours. (Breakfast was over by the way). He then got snippy and said there is no check because breakfast is included in the room. What the heck??? Just wish our last memory was better. Would i return?. That's a good question. The facility is beautiful, the room was great. Walking around the village was interesting but leaving hungry wasn't how I wanted to end our trip. Honestly if breakfast service is any indication of meals there I'm glad we didn't spring for dinner.

    I absolutely loved my stay here and can't wait to return…read more The impetus for our visit was the fact that we are die-hard fans of The Prisoner, but I was pleasantly surprised with how lovely the stay itself was, separate from everything attached to the show! Staying in The Village is already so much fun, and our apartment was clean, nicely furnished, and cosy. The shops and restaurants around are lovely, and I myself love Portmeirion china so I enjoyed shopping there. We also learned a lot about the history of the place and it is rather fascinating and unique. There is a nice art gallery which I went to and was able to talk to the artist, Rob Piercy, who has done a lot of work on Portmeirion over the decades. I bought his lovely coffee table book and thoroughly enjoy it. The gift shop in No. 6's is fantastic. The only thing I wish they had were shot glasses, but we bought lots of other fun things. Unfortunately as we visited during winter, the pool area was not available but it looked very inviting. Exploring the whole village was a real treat, as there are so many little hidden walkways, stairwells, and more which one continues to stumble across! Amazing views of the sea, and a nice walk along the beach. Even in stormy weather, our hike in the woods was one of my favorite trails I've ever been on. The dog cemetery was particularly spooky. There were so many little hidden areas we kept finding and spent hours walking in the woods. The food at the hotel down by the water is superb, with great service as well. Some of the best afternoon tea I've ever had. This is one of those places you just want to spend ages at. I'd come here for my honeymoon, it's definitely a great getaway for couples.
