Beautiful and genuinely dog friendly hotel

The Bulkeley is such a lovely place to stay. Perfect location right on the sea with gorgeous views. The hotel was genuinely dog friendly and our dogs had a fantastic time. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. We will be back for sure!

Once again we enjoyed the “old world” character of the Bulkeley Hotel (what my late mother would have described as “decayed elegance.” This time we had a suite with magnificent views of the Straits and Snowdonia beyond One niggle is the absence of a fish choice for breakfast - kippers, smoked haddock? The coastal location begs the need for such choices.

This hotel is a gem, from the welcome at reception, lovely rooms and the food is first class. We had a lovely relaxed stay, location is superb with beautiful views across the strait to Snowdonia, and in the centre of Beaumaris with stunning castle, and lovely shops.

The staff and food were really good at The Bulkeley but the hotel itself is really quite shabby. It is in desperate need of redecorating and new furnishings.

Knew better days

We found this hotel to be old and tired. The floor boards seriously creaked. It could do with a thorough make over . It is a beautiful area with sea and mountain views.

The area is beautiful and the area is amazing for a quiet weekend away. The hotel staff were very nice, although the hotel itself could do with some redecorating, areas of paintwork very tired and carpets threadbare

The hotel and room were adequate The receptionist was applauding suggesting that I hadn’t checked my reservation and dog facilities. She made NO effort to assist me in my request for a shower which is not in the bath. I explained that I had injury sustained as a soldier serving. She said no shower had been requested, plainly NOT so. But for the 6 hour drive home I would have left and driven. Disappointed as i have stayed regularly

Pleasant stay lovely staff

Had a lovely 1 night stay at this historic hotel. The interiors are dated but that is part of the charm. The staff were so helpful and friendly, we had an upgrade on our room because hotels.com had overbooked and the staff were very good about it. The room and bed were comfortable, but the kettle was a bit rubbish and not convenient to use (it was connected to the plug which was behind the television) The breakfast was pretty average, not the best but you had enough options. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend if you need somewhere in the area.

Location second to none. History of property and area.Food quality very good.nice to have bottled water supplied in room and nice toiletries. Our room 120 looked out on to extractors; flat roof;ladder and was very dark,probably the worst room in the hotel.dirty glasses with lipstick on them in bedroom.All windows around hotel and room were grubby and may seem a small point but way have a van full of dry hotel rubbish parked in the car park constantly so that it’s the first thing you see from the restaurant!

Built for a visit by Queen Victoria the hotel is over 100 years old.Inevitably therefore one has to accept everything is slightly dated.The staff were charming.
