Last minute short break
The location of the hotel is good and the room was clean and spacious. The furniture was basic and limited but adequate for a short break only. The bathroom had a bad damp smell and the ceiling was mouldy. We reported this to the manager who said she would inform the manager on duty when we checked out. Clearly that manager knew nothing and was unconcerned. The staff generally were overworked and this impacted on the quality of service. We were told there would be breakfast available but when we went down in the morning there was no one serving, only the cleaner. Thankfully there is a very good resaurant a few doors down serving breakfasts, lunch and dinner but is only small so you need to book. We wouldn't stay here again.

Lovey Dovey
Easy to find and easy to park. Lovely warm welcome. The room was huge with a lovely big bed, sea views and a great shower room. Above all, it was clean and comfortable. When we speak about it, we call it the Lovey Dover Inn.

Scenic stay in an old inn
This is a fantastic location overlooking the beach and inlet and our room offered wonderful views. The building has been an inn since 1729 and has lots of character. Rooms have recently been done up and are very comfortable. There’s sn excellent range of breakfast options to choose from for a reasonable price. A great place to stay!

Lovely Place!
We booked Dovey Inn for an amazing price for a family room (in July!!) for myself and my friends, while attending an event during a short holiday. I didn't realise we would get a sea view with the room - it was exceptional! Check in was quick and the staff were wonderful. Our accommodation was spacious and clean, with two bedrooms so we each had our own space. Both rooms had connecting doors to the bathroom, which was useful so not to disturb eachother during the night. We had pretty much everything we needed for our stay, and with it being above a pub, we had access to breakfast, lunch and dinner options at will. There wasn't breakfast with the room price unfortunately, but gave us the option anyway. The food was really good when we ate there. The only niggles we had were the sticky doors for the secondary room - the doors to the bathroom and main room often got stuck and took force to open. Also, the locks on the bathroom doors didn't work. You could easily unlock them by just using the handles as normal. While the room was fairly modern, there was some aesthetic wear to skirtings and a superficial crack in the bathroom sink. It was great to have air con, but sometimes it would loudly hum at random, often every 30 seconds, sometimes not. Irritating the first night, but we got used to it. Also, beware of Thursday Quiz night if you're on the first floor. It's loud and reverberates through the floor. All in all, Aberdovey was gorgeous! Amazing beach, too!

Convenient location, great room, terrible food.
Fantastic room at the front of the hotel with a great bathroom. Good sized shower and fantastic free standing bath. Well decorated bar and restaurant with friendly staff but sadly let down by terrible food in the evening. Took breakfast next door in the cafe as did not want to eat there again.

Lovely hotel overlooking the sea
Great little hotel with heaps of charm, overlooking the sea. The family room was excellent with 2 bedrooms. Lovely decor and renovated bathroom. Lovely windows with nice view. Good value for money breakfast in the morning which was made to order.

The Dovey; can't wait to return!
Really enjoyed our stay; comfortable and clean room with sea views, good food, free parking (out of season) and most of all, the friendly and helpful staff - in particular, Dave. Nothing was too much trouble! He deserves a medal! We hope to return!
