About the Property

Historic Charm and Modern Comforts

The Black Boy, a 16th-century inn nestled within Caernarfon's town walls, offers a unique blend of historic charm and modern comforts. The property, dating back to 1522, boasts thick walls, wood panelling, and creaking floorboards, creating a cosy atmosphere that transports guests back in time.

Unique Accommodation Options

With rooms updated to a high standard while preserving their character, guests can choose between staying in the main inn with its traditional feel or opt for the modern Black Jack's rooms with mini kitchens. The Black Tower, an Edwardian building just a short walk away, provides a different yet equally charming accommodation experience.

Convenient Location

Situated within walking distance of the town centre and Caernarfon Castle, The Black Boy is the perfect base for exploring the historic attractions of the area. Book your stay now to experience a delightful blend of history and comfort.

8.0

This inn was very accommodating when I had mistakenly booked the wrong dates - off by a night on a short notice booking I appreciated their ability to accommodate us in an accessible room l

Wifi kicked me out and I was not able to log back in and they required ++ information to be shred to access it in the first place

The whole room smelled horribly of chemicals, not sure if it was a new carpet or cleaning products. We had to prop open all the windows and turn on a fan. The pub across the street added the poor experience with a loud crowd late into the evening. Went to the pub for dinner and it was a packed tourist trap with mediocre food.
