“This Victorian hotel on Tenby's Esplanade struck me with its charm and dedicated staff, who clearly aim to please. I noted its prime location overlooking South Beach and Caldey Island, making it ideal for both couples and families. The rooms have been refurbished, but the hotel's age is still evident, which may be a concern for allergy sufferers.”
