Cambrian Hotel

Range of 7 windows, facing E to the seafront. Three storeys and basement, with one of the original basement areas surviving to the front, and iron railings. The left part of the hotel, CARRYING THE NAME "CAMBRIAN HOTEL", is designed as a double-fronted three-window house with a central porch. The raised lettering of the name is worked in the render. The letters are about 0.4 m in height in a serif style and are an interesting survival of unsophisticated mid-Victorian display lettering. The middle part of the hotel, carrying the words "Hotel Entrance" on a board, is a narrow two-window unit with a coachway FORMERLY LEADING to the rear yard, now disused and the entrance screened off. The right part (no. 5) is a single-fronted two-window house. The whole front is rendered and painted. Slate roof and tile ridge, with a rendered brick end-chimney at the left. At the right is a rendered chimney which is probably shared with the adjacent Swn y Môr Hotel. The door and window frames are all now replaced in original openings. At the rear there are original 16-pane hornless sash-windows. The main entrance has a Doric porch with two cast-iron columns. The old coachway entrance has a segmental arch with a keystone and stilted ends, and a separate bracketted cornice above. The doorway of the former house (no. 5) has a bracketted cornice. The ground-storey windows are large and square with moulded architraves. There are separate cornices, some with brackets. The upper windows have simple surrounds and stone sills.
