Pet-Friendly Policies

The Clontarf offers extensive dog-friendly amenities and policies that go beyond simply allowing pets. Dogs receive a complimentary sausage at breakfast, a detail mentioned by multiple guests. The hotel is located within a two-minute walk of the West Shore beach, providing easy access for long beach walks away from crowds. The owners are dog lovers and ensure pets are as welcome as human guests, with special touches like treats and a welcoming attitude.

Rooms

Each of the six rooms at The Clontarf has individually styled decor and unique design, such as the bespoke artwork mentioned in guest reviews. Rooms include a king-size bed with high-quality mattresses described as 'incredible' by guests, plus a seating area and a small kitchenette with a fridge, microwave, and cutlery. Certain rooms feature a spa bath as advertised on the hotel's own website, though guests should confirm availability when booking. All rooms offer views of the sea or Great Orme.

Dining

Breakfast features locally sourced ingredients and is freshly cooked to order from a menu chosen the night before. Options include a full English breakfast, porridge, cereal, granola, croissants, and a cheese and mushroom omelette. Lactose-free milk, butter, and yoghurt are available on request. The hotel also has an honesty bar stocked with drinks for guest convenience.

Guest Lounge and Services

A spacious guest lounge is exclusively available for guests and includes games, reading materials, and a welcoming atmosphere. The hotel provides efficient check-in and check-out processes, with early check-in available from 1.30 p.m. upon request. Free on-site private parking is provided, and the owners offer personalized recommendations for local attractions and dining.

The Clontarf is located on the quieter West Shore of Llandudno, a 15-minute walk from Llandudno North Shore Beach and 1.3 km from Llandudno Pier.

Wonderful Stay Near the Coast

hearty breakfast easy access
I appreciated the hearty breakfast options. The quality was very noticeable. The location proved convenient, with access to the West Shore and the Orme for nice walks. I found the short walk into town quite manageable too.
I noticed there was no elevator available, which presented a minor inconvenience when I had to carry my luggage to the upper floors. This may pose a challenge for some future guests.
