We visited the harboumaster on a day trip back in March this year. We liked the service we recieved and noted that the resturant had a 1 star Michellin star rating so dicided to book a night this May
As before the service was excellent, from check in to check out. Our room was clean, large and airy with dressing gowns and slippers on offer and had a big bath/shower room; the wife loved the bathroom lotions on offered.
The only downside to our stay was that we were both a little underwhelmed with our evening meals. Food is very subjective and we undertand "one man's poison is another man's meat" it's just that we were expeting a better dining expierience. This being said we were more that happy with a nice mid afternoon complimentary coffee and cake and the breakfast was excellent.
All in all we had a very good stay and enjoyed ourselves.

We loved the Harbour Master. What a great restaurant, such nice people, superb room, opulent bathroom and shower. When the harbour is not under construction it will be even better !

An absolute brilliant hotel. Great location. Our room had a wonderful view of the harbour. It was very spacious well furnished and very well equipped. Scrupulously clean. Appreciated the full size bath and the comfortable bed. Couldn't fault it. The restaurant was very good for both dinner and breakfast. Staff extremely friendly. Great stay.

We loved the view, all the special touches, and the artwork.....food too! Staff was very friendly and helpful. The weather was fierce, so we didn't explore the area much... But loved the shop nearby with so many tempting items and artwork.

It has kept its character with lovely refurbishment . Great to see wheelchair access and large "wet room". I loved the Welsh fabrics and the colour scheme of the room we were in-"Gambia". Delicious breakfast!!

I have eaten in the Harbourmaster many times but never stayed. I arrived after a long drive and they made sure I could eat, the food was to die for, the room was one of the best equiped I have ever stayed in with lovely views of the harbour. This morning in a rush to leave the staff would not let me leave until I had grabbed a coffee and a breakfast bap to go. Fantastic friendly staff and a stunning location, cannot say more than that

Not easy to find - some clearer directions may have been helpful. Received a warm and friendly welcome with complimentary tea/coffee and cake - outstanding.
Room relatively modest and only a small bed but what a view - worth the cost on its own. Nice quality bathroom and bathtub.
Breakfast service very slow - around an hour when we wanted to be away.

Stayed overnight for work. Stunning setting with wonderful views from the bedroom. Staff very helpful and they made a delicious bespoke vegan breakfast for us (though dry out for vegan sausages for future visits). The only downside was that the rooms were incredible hot at night meaning we woke up often dehydrated. We opened the windows but that did feel rather unecofriendly. But overall a wonderful place.

The room was disappointing. Bright red carpet, strange purple headboard with a shelf cut into it so I couldn’t rest my head against it. No walk in shower which I would expect for the money. Room needs an update and some colour co ordination.

The area around the hotel was blocked off due to the work on flooding barriers and so I could not park the car in front of hotel where I would usually park-the hotel car park is very very small so I could not park there and I had to park my car at the very back by the sea wall and I was worried about leaving my car there. There were no notices or information about where to park car and the one way system in relation to the main street is very confusing and no clear direction-it is good that I know Aberaeron otherwise I would have been very confused in relation to finding the hotel and where to park! The hotel was wonderful and the staff lovely and helpful!
