“The Erskine Arms immediately strikes you with its thoughtful decor, a handsome nod to its historic charm, making the rooms feel both spotlessly clean and remarkably characterful. Its location right beside Conwy Castle is undeniable, though parking requires a short stroll to a nearby lot, a minor consideration given the excellent food and genuinely friendly staff who seem to anticipate every need.”
