THE HOSPITALITY group which owns a stunning seafront hotel in Llandudno has been named one of the best small hotel chains in the UK.

The Inn Collection Group, which owns St Kilda Hotel on Llandudno’s promenade, was named as a Which? recommended provider after the UK consumer champion revealed its list of the best and worst hotel chains of 2023.

The Inn Collection Group came third with a customer score of 78 per cent, which combines overall satisfaction and likeliness to recommend.

Which? said: "Expect a warm welcome, posh pub grub and a decent beer selection at Inn Collection’s well-appointed, dog-friendly pubs with rooms.

“Its inns, dotted around the north of England and North Wales are cheaper, better and have more character than more famous brands such as Hilton and Marriott.

“Guests particularly praised the service and comfortable rooms.

“It doesn’t just do pubs: it recently took over Morecambe’s grande dame, The Midland, and an Art Deco hotel in Tynemouth."

St Kilda Hotel, which dates back to 1854, was purchased by the group for an undisclosed sum a year ago.
