Wales is often called the “little big country” and is well known for it’s beautiful hills and valleys. Aberystwyth is excellently placed on the west coast of Wales with the harbour being fed by the confluence of the rivers Ystwyth and Rheidol. The seaside town is surrounded by the Irish Sea to one side and three hills to the other and though small it is an excellent place to take a vacation.

Though the two beaches at Aberystwyth can be described as “gritty” they are extremely popular, especially with surfers and lovers of other water sports. Popular since Victorian times the wide promenade features mainly Victorian and Edwardian buildings which help create a splendid frontage.

In the late’th Century Aberystwyth became a university town (1872). Although the University of Wales (formerly Aberystwyth University) remains small, during term time, the eight thousand students account for almost a third of the town’s total population.

With such a large student population you will find plenty of pubs, bars and cafes dotted around the small town but few compare with Harry’s Hotel And Bistro for atmosphere.

Harry’s Hotel has recently been refurbished and now has a Modern Bistro style menu and an open plan kitchen. Situated in the very centre of town the hotel has an amazingly lively Irish Bar which can often be a venue for live music.

Although Harry’s is centrally located the Aberystwyth one way system can confuse some folk. As long as you remember that the hotel is located on North Parade on the left hand side of the road on the one-way system you shouldn’t have any difficulty finding it.

Harry’s Hotel is a great place to stay as a number of the town’s finest visitor attractions are only a short distance away and Aberystwyth Railway Station is only around the corner (as is the town’s Tourist Information Centre). The highly affordable rooms are both light and spacious and most feature a seating area (sofa or the likes), flat screen satellite television, Wi-Fi Internet and the usual facilities such as tea/coffee making facilities as well as a laundry/valet Service.

If you will be visiting either Bristol, Birmingham, Liverpool, Manchester or Cardiff on business, some time soon you might want to consider spending the following weekend at Harry’s Hotel And Bistro. There is simply no better way in which to relax after a long weeks work and each of the mentioned cities is no more than a two and a half hour drive away, and such a pleasant drive it is too.
