Castle Hotel, Historic hotel in Conwy, Wales.
The Castle Hotel stands as a three-story Grade II listed building on High Street, featuring Renaissance architectural elements with limestone facing and ornate brick window dressings.
Originally established as the King's Head public house in the 15th century on the former site of a Cistercian abbey, the building underwent extensive remodeling in 1885 by architects Douglas and Fordham.
The hotel has welcomed distinguished guests throughout its history, including engineer Thomas Telford, poet William Wordsworth, and the Queen of Romania, who dined at its restaurant.
