28/8/25

Picture this: waves gently lapping against the shore, Victorian elegance at every turn, and mountain views framing sunset strolls along the seafront. When searching for places to stay in Llandudno for a romantic getaway, The Esplanade stands among the finest beach hotels, offering couples the perfect blend of coastal charm and intimate luxury in this enchanting seaside town.

A Seafront Haven for Two

Our boutique hotel in Llandudno puts romance at your doorstep. Request one of our seafront rooms and wake to panoramic views across Llandudno Bay, where morning light dances on the water. There's something magical about starting your day with coffee on your private balcony, watching the town come alive while wrapped in the comfort of our luxurious accommodations.

The Esplanade has been creating romantic memories since the 1920s. Our recent refurbishment maintains the building's historic character while adding modern touches that today's couples appreciate. Every detail, from rainfall showers to sumptuous bedding, has been chosen to enhance your romantic escape.

Dining at The Goat Restaurant and Bar

No romantic break is complete without exceptional dining, and The Goat restaurant is one of the best in Llandudno. Located within our hotel, this intimate venue has become a destination in its own right for couples seeking memorable meals.

The Goat combines locally sourced ingredients with creative presentation, offering a menu that changes with the seasons. Begin your evening with cocktails in the bar area, where soft lighting and comfortable seating create the perfect atmosphere for intimate conversation. The restaurant features carefully spaced tables ensuring privacy, while extensive windows frame views of the Victorian architecture that makes this town special.

Chef's tasting menus provide an ideal romantic dining experience, allowing you to share multiple courses without the pressure of choosing. Wine pairings selected by our sommelier enhance each dish, creating flavour combinations that will have you reminiscing long after your stay.

Romantic Strolls Along Llandudno Promenade

Just steps from The Esplanade, the famous Llandudno promenade offers one of Britain's most romantic walks. This crescent-shaped seafront stretches nearly two miles and is lined with colourful beach huts and Victorian shelters, perfect for stealing kisses away from the sea breeze.

Time your evening stroll to catch the sunset painting the sky in shades of pink and gold. Llandudno Pier, illuminated after dark, creates a magical backdrop for photographs. During summer, you might catch outdoor performances or enjoy the gentle sounds of the tide as you walk hand in hand.

For a change of pace, venture to the quieter West Shore. This hidden gem offers more secluded walking with views across to Anglesey and the mountains of Snowdonia. Pack a picnic from our kitchen, and you'll discover peaceful spots perfect for two.

Discovering Places to Eat in Llandudno

While The Goat provides exceptional dining without leaving the hotel, exploring other places to eat in Llandudno adds variety to your romantic break. The town offers everything from cosy cafés for afternoon tea to sophisticated restaurants ideal for special celebrations.

Start your mornings at one of the independent coffee shops along Mostyn Street, where baristas craft speciality drinks and fresh pastries from display cases. For lunch, seek out the bistros tucked into Victorian arcades, offering intimate settings and seasonal menus.

Evening brings more choices among the best restaurants in Llandudno. Fresh seafood features prominently, with daily catches prepared simply to highlight their quality. Many venues offer early evening menus, allowing you to dine well before catching a show at Venue Cymru or merely returning to The Esplanade for nightcaps in our bar.

Creating Your Perfect Romantic Escape

Beyond dining and strolling, couples find plenty to enhance their romantic break. Take the vintage tramway to the Great Orme summit for breathtaking views, or book a couple's spa treatment at one of the town's wellness centres. The cable car offers another perspective on the coastline, while horse-drawn carriage rides along the seafront add Victorian romance to your stay.

For culture lovers, the town offers galleries, museums, and the famous Venue Cymru theatre. Book tickets for an evening performance, then return to The Esplanade for a nightcap in our bar, discussing the show while planning tomorrow's adventures.
