    The Colbourn Hotel, which dates back to 1892 and has been a hotel since 1905, is located on Seabank Road, just off the main promenade in the North Wales coastal town of Colwyn Bay. The area is undergoing much renovation which is expected to give a new lease of life to this popular seaside resort. An array of tourist attractions including the Welsh Mountain Zoo, Conwy and Caernarfon Castles and Snowdonia National Park are easily accessible from the town. The closest sizeable towns are Rhyl (11 miles) and Bangor (20 miles).

    The town lies just of the A55 North Wales Expressway which offers links to Chester eastbound and Caernarfon westbound. The A470 gives access to Snowdonia and the A5 provides connections to London and Holyhead. Colwyn Bay train station is situated 2 minutes from the property and runs on the Avanti West Coast line. Multiple bus routes serve the town.

    The property is a sizeable, 19th century building of stone construction with whitewashed walls and black timber frames and a pitched slate roof.
