Feel the Hwyl in Tenby

Stay at the Newly Renovated Imperial Hotel This Spring

As Wales celebrates 2025 as the Year of Croeso (Year of Welcome)[i], there’s no better time to experience its warmth, charm, and culture with a stay in Tenby. Nestled on the stunning Pembrokeshire coast, the newly refurbished Imperial Hotel is moving towards its reopening and is ready to welcome guests with open arms, offering a luxurious stay with panoramic views of South Beach.

Visit Wales’ “Feel the Hwyl” campaign highlights domestic tourism, with Tenby featured as one of the destinations. With Ireland’s craic and Scotland’s cèilidh, Wales’ hwyl captures a unique spirit of fun, adventure, and connection.

Under the new ownership of the Crest Hotels Group, the Imperial Hotel recently unveiled newly refurbished rooms inspired by the tranquil sea, just in time for the holiday season. Exceptional dining experiences are coming soon, making it a prime destination for those seeking modern elegance and rich history.
