The trips out were good The coach and staff (including the hotel) were good. The Hotel was very sad indeed. In need of total refurbishment. Food was sometimes good ..sometimes not.

Unfortunately the coaches were delayed on both journeys and so it took much longer than it should. The hotel was very poor and the food was not good at all and although the staff were pleasant enough they had clearly not been trained. A disappointing holiday.

We have recently returned from another Self Drive holiday to Llandudno, staying at the Marine Hotel. We had the most wonderful time - Hotel was again clean and comfortable and was beautifully warm (which was needed). All staff are wonderfully friendly and welcoming and we could not fault this holiday - we always enjoy our stay and cannot wait to return.
