Sited on a headland that juts into the sea, Llandudno is a pretty Victorian town on the northern Welsh coast. It has its own stretch of beach, rolling hills that fringe the town’s edges and a pier where you can play the penny arcades and look back on the town across the water. With so much to do, a seafront hotel puts you right at the heart of the action and Llandudno has no shortage of seafront hotels.
When compiling this list of the top five seafront hotels in Llandudno, we took location and hotel facilities as two of the most important factors to a good stay. Value for money, comfort and breakfast options were also given credence, while not overlooking what previous guests over the last year have had to say about their stay.
Bryn-Y-Mor
Privates from £87/ night
It’s worth noting immediately that the bar is set really high for quality hotels in Llandudno. A great example of this, showcasing both quality and abundance of facilities, great location and a competitive price is Bryn-Y-Mor. Previous guests have unanimously rated the breakfast that is included in the price as near-flawless. Rooms are en-suite, are cosy and come with a kettle, TV and free toiletries. Neat little extras like board games and the bike rental add originality to the place. The hotel is within easy walking distance of the headland and pier.
Promenâd B&B
Privates from £91/ night
This lovely Victorian-era seafront property is right on the seafront and makes a great base for exploring Llandudno.

A fantastic breakfast is included in the price.
