Excellent food and good value

Check in was easy, bedrooms a good size and very comfortable beds. Heated towel rail & extractor not working. Tea & coffee facilities and a room safe. Cleaning staff could be a little more attentive during the stay. Food is very good quality and very well cooked, delightful dining room staff, thanks to Rory, Alex & Beth. Will return in the future to this ancient castle complete with peacocks!

Anniversary Stay

We had a Sunday lunch bought for us so as it was our wedding anniversary I booked a room for the night, a suite room, having a bedroom & separate comfy room. They were excellent although some distance from the reception & dining room.There were outside covered jaquises which we did not have time to use.We did however walk round the gardens which are well kept. The food was a roast which was good. Staff friendly & helpful. We would book again.

Very relaxing weekend break at Ruthin Castle Hotel

We were met by a very friendly and helpful receptionist and this set the positive scene that was repeated by all the staff we met for the whole of the visit. The food was excellent along with the service that came with it. The hotel is as expected ie an old building in need of some repair that was full of atmosphere and history. The gardens, inhabited by the beautiful resident peacocks were well maintained and nice to walk around. We were only there for a weekend break but I could visualise how lovely it would be as a wedding venue, especially if they were as lucky with the weather as we were. I would happily return for a longer break in the future.
