An Invitation to Relax, Settle In, and Enjoy the Moment
Proudly accredited as a Visit Wales 4-star property, the hotel has been recognised with a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence, while Tonnau Restaurant is a recipient of TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice awards.
The Caerwylan Hotel is a privately owned coastal hotel offering a calm, elegant stay defined by personal service and quiet attention to detail.
Occupying a privileged position on the east side of Criccieth’s Esplanade, the hotel enjoys a sunny, south-facing aspect with uninterrupted views across the main beach, Tremadog Bay, and the historic ruins of Criccieth Castle. As a landmark Victorian building, it offers some of the most admired seaside views in North Wales.
Beyond its heritage exterior, the hotel reveals a contemporary and relaxed interior, where modern comfort is paired with timeless character. The atmosphere is refined yet unpretentious, designed to feel welcoming from the moment you arrive.
Comfortable, contemporary rooms
The hotel offers 24 individually designed en-suite bedrooms, thoughtfully styled to provide comfort, space, and simplicity. Many rooms enjoy beautiful sea views, allowing guests to wake to natural light and a peaceful coastal setting.
All accommodation at the hotel is designed for a peaceful and relaxing stay. For this reason, we welcome guests aged 12 years and over.
Relax and unwind
Guests are invited to unwind in the sea-facing lounge, a light-filled space overlooking the shoreline where the ever-changing coastline provides a calm backdrop throughout the day. The contemporary bar offers a full range of draught and bottled beers, a carefully chosen selection of spirits, soft drinks, and a hand-picked wine list, with a strong emphasis on Welsh producers.
For dining, Tonnau Restaurant offers a bright, welcoming room and carefully prepared dishes, served with warm, attentive care in a setting that is polished yet relaxed.
