Everything was clean and neat, great location. I was able to walk everywhere from hotel and even returning during day wasn’t a big deal as it was so close to everything.

Pembroke Hotel
100% for The Pembroke!! The staff was fabulous, welcoming and accommodating for our needs. A two minute walk to the castle. Beautiful hotel, spotlessly clean, comfortable rooms. Parking on site. We can’t say enough. Hoping to return some day. Rachel was particularly helpful.
