Hotel Description
The Black Boy is a 16th-century inn within Caernarfon's historic town walls. It serves hearty gastro Welsh food and real craft beers in front of roaring log fires and is an easy walk from the town center and 13th-century castle. The Black Boy Inn dates back to 1522 and is one of the oldest inns in North Wales. While updating the rooms to a high standard the property has retained their unique character and atmosphere by using local traditional building materials with handmade furniture and quality fittings. Some of its walls are 1.2 to 4.9 feet thick. The wood paneling creaking floorboards low ceilings narrow staircases and thick wooden beams create a cozy atmosphere. Black Jack's is a separate part of the inn and is located in a courtyard to the rear. Eight of these 10 spacious rooms have mini kitchens and a small seating area. The Black Tower is a listed Edwardian building locate towards the rear of the inn in a separate building. It is a few minutes' walk from Caernarfon Castle.

Carnaerfen Black Boy Inn

Liked: Great location inside historic walls of the town. Room was clean and had a nice bathroom and a comfy bed.
Disliked: Was a little difficult to get parked when I arrived but figured out that there are several public car parks close by so I used those. Also a small car park at the hotel that has to be paid for.

Overall we were impressed with...

Liked: The place was much larger than you would think looking from the outside. Atmosphere was very good.The location was superb being close to the castle and shops/bars.
Disliked: Limited parking facilities were poorly managed and expensive. It appeared staff had priority over paying guests.We were 2 guests aged over 65, yet placed on the top floor (2 flights of stairs).Staff attitude was not brilliant.

Disappointing - 2.0 out of 5

Very disappointing

Liked: Location great, building historic and beautiful. Room was well furnished. Staff were friendly.
Disliked: Room was so hot it was unbearable. Had to ask for extra fan. It was still really hot. No bottled water in room, at £130 quid a night I expect bottled water. When I asked for some I was told they didn’t have any so bought two lemonades to take to the room… £8! Receptionist then appeared with 2 bottles of water….Evening meal was overpriced and overcooked. Didn’t stay for breakfast as woken by workers downstairs at 7am playing a radio… unnecessary. Bedding old and could do with replacing. All in all very disappointing.
