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
