and VisitWales.
The aim of the common standards is to make
accommodation standards easy to understand
and to give you confidence that establishments
meet the standards you expect.
Types of Accommodation
Under the new common standards
accommodation is assessed under three
broad categories:
Hotel, Guest Accommodation and

Hotel and Guest Accommodation are
divided into sub-categories which provide
more information about the type of

HOTEL CATEGORIES

should fulfil all Guest Accommodation
minimum entry requirements.
B&B

by the owner for up to six paying guests.
Guest House
Accommodation for more than six paying

establishment. The bar will be open to nonresidents
