About Gales Wine Bar & Hotel

Gales has traded as a wine bar in Llangollen since 1977, making it one of the longest-running independent businesses in the town, and it combines its long-standing reputation for wine and food with eight individually decorated bedrooms above the bar. The building itself is 18th-century, and the rooms retain period features alongside modern comforts.

Rooms range from doubles to small and large family rooms, each with tea and coffee facilities, a widescreen television, free Wi-Fi and a direct-dial telephone, and guests have the wine bar and restaurant on their doorstep for evening meals built around an extensive, regularly changing wine list and seasonal menus.

Set on Bridge Street a short walk from the river and the railway station, Gales suits visitors who want a genuinely characterful, independent place to stay in the heart of Llangollen, with dinner never more than a flight of stairs away.
