What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Today Escape Boutique B&B remains the hippest stay in town, with nine bedrooms designed in nine different eclectic, eye-catching styles.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The front gate opens onto Church Walks below the Great Orme, where wild Kashmiri goats occasionally wander down from the headland.
The rooms
Each of the nine bedrooms takes an individual theme, with Seventies armchairs and bay windows facing the mountains.
Restaurant
Breakfast Dining Room
Morning dishes are cooked to order beneath a blue Victorian fretwork arch, beside parquet floors and large bay windows.
How it began

Sam and Gaenor opened the Victorian villa as a bed-and-breakfast in 2004, which their daughter Grace now manages.

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.

Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.

A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.

Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
