Premier Inn Aberystwyth hotel , SY23
Spaces available when we arrived. Comforting bonus to see CCTV coverage from Premier Inn. Nowhere else to park in Aberystwyth, so very glad we booked this.

Aberystwyth, Premier Inn, SY23
Great location and good value for money - just £ 3 for the day on the Saturday of the August Bank Holiday weekend. Would have been five stars if the information had indicated that the postcode will not take you to the car park, but simply to the road that the hotel is on - the car park is actually accessed from a separate road at the rear. Not a big issue, but tiny details matter if customer experience is to be exceptional.

Really handy parking space, only a couple of minute walk to the sea front. Difficult to find due to road closures but can’t imagine it would normally be a problem! Very reasonable cost aswell, only £3 for whole day!
