Cleanliness feedback is mixed: many describe rooms as clean, but others report lapses such as missed housekeeping and mould. Rooms are generally comfortable and sometimes spacious, though some guests encountered maintenance or hot water problems, and spa or dinner availability required advance booking. Overall, it suits travelers seeking a simple, characterful stay.

Guests like the lively bar. The spa is a nice extra but needs advance booking, and availability can be limited; parking is available but not abundant, and the property is dog friendly.

Room was fantastic. The hotel was in need of a tidy up. Reception is a mess, staff disheveled, driveway and parking were great, but you’ll run into workers in uniform and aprons smoking out the back door of the kitchen. Location was fantastic and walkable to the towns other hotels, pubs and shops. Skip the breakfast, even if included. Still a good stay.

Our room was charming and comfortable and the breakfast was hearty. This was a great location to get to the trailheads to the summit as well as.many forest hikes. It was very convenient to the Sherpa bus stop to.take the bus to trailheads and to Caenarfon Castle. The only limitation was the small car park but there are several pay car parks nearby.

Very pleasant staff and lovely location. Room was clean and bed was comfortable. We had our dog with us and the property is very dog friendly. Breakfast had lots of choice including a cooked breakfast (and an option to provide a sausage for the dog). Only very minor criticisms - breakfast starts at 8 - seems quite late for a weekday stay. The property is probably due a bit of a refresh but it certainly wouldn't stop us staying there again.

Me and my friend really looked forward to our stay after hiking and camping in rainy weather in Snowdonia. We booked specifically for the spa, so were beyond disappointed upon arrival, when we were told that we could not book a slot in the spa because all slots were being saved for GroupOn guests which had this feature included in a deal - but who might or might not even want to use the spa! Despite there being free slots, we were not allowed to book one. I am absolutely appalled by this - hence the low rating. I think that if you have a deal on which prevents other guests to enjoy their stay fully, then send out an email and give us a chance to book elsewhere. After begging and getting a bit annoyed, the person at reception finally gave us a 5pm slot - only because some GroupOn guests had not arrived in time. 2nd disappointment: no hot water in the room, showered in freezing water. The 3rd disappointment came when we wanted to book a table for dinner. At check-in we were told that we could decide re dinner later. At 6pm we tried to book at any time they had a table free, we were flexible. Only to be told that everything was fully booked. Surprised that a hotel doesn't do more than one sitting, we could see the dining room currently had plenty of room. But we ate elsewhere and came back just after 8pm. To find an abandoned dining room and a half-empty bar! Must've been a crammed hour of dinner service while we were away!!

Staff were very pleasant and helpful. The room i booked needed maintenance, so we were offered an upgrade to the suite, which was lovely and big. Cleanliness was overall great, but i did find a couple of dog hairs on the bed. The hotel bar was great and drinks prices were reasonable. Would stay there again

Easy location and staff very pleasant. Unfortunately the housekeeping was not done and therefore dirty cups in room and no clean towels. Although staff friendly and oblidging the hygiene could be worked up on. No tongs to touch bread only your hands! The milk jugs bought out by holding the inside of the jug! Very old and needs money spending g on it. Noisy on main road . Ivy growing into the windows. Would not go again .

I think that if you have a deal on which prevents other guests to enjoy their stay fully, then send out an email and give us a chance to book elsewhere. After begging and getting a bit annoyed, the person at reception finally gave us a 5pm slot - only because some GroupOn guests had not arrived in time. 2nd disappointment: no hot water in the room, showered in freezing water. The 3rd disappointment came when we wanted to book a table for dinner. At check-in we were told that we could decide re dinner later. At 6pm we tried to book at any time they had a table free, we were flexible. Only to be told that everything was fully booked. Surprised that a hotel doesn't do more than one sitting, we could see the dining room currently had plenty of room. But we ate elsewhere and came back just after 8pm. To find an abandoned dining room and a half-empty bar! Must've been a crammed hour of dinner service while we were away!!

I foubd an anti-depressant tablet by the side of of bed , there is still rubbish under it. The room clearly had not been cleaned prior to my arrival. Nor did anyone bother to clean it after i reported finding the tabket, a chikd or oet ciukd have easily found and eaten it.The bathroom was full of black mould, the ceiling, the tiles and the shower cubicle need to be bleached and cleaned correctly, I have asthma and my travelling companion has COPD. We not expecting to find mould. I fell in reception , tripped over some door stops, I reported to reception, was not asked how I was but offered some ice, no mention of an accident book to record the incident in. the door stops were still in same position the following day. Tge mattresses were extremely uncomfortable, offering no support, sheets loosely on ved, not fitted, so moved about wgen slept in.A very disappointing and uncomfortable stay

Room was fantastic. The hotel was in need of a tidy up. Reception is a mess, staff disheveled, driveway and parking were great, but you’ll run into workers in uniform and aprons smoking out the back door of the kitchen. Location was fantastic and walkable to the towns other hotels, pubs and shops. Skip the breakfast, even if included. Still a good stay.

Our room was charming and comfortable and the breakfast was hearty. This was a great location to get to the trailheads to the summit as well as.many forest hikes. It was very convenient to the Sherpa bus stop to.take the bus to trailheads and to Caenarfon Castle. The only limitation was the small car park but there are several pay car parks nearby.

Easy location and staff very pleasant. Unfortunately the housekeeping was not done and therefore dirty cups in room and no clean towels. Although staff friendly and oblidging the hygiene could be worked up on. No tongs to touch bread only your hands! The milk jugs bought out by holding the inside of the jug! Very old and needs money spending g on it. Noisy on main road . Ivy growing into the windows. Would not go again .

Great location, friendly & helpful staff, very basic & tired rooms (but comfy and clean enough rooms!), parking was easy, enjoyed the bar and entertainment during the evening, didn't eat lunch or diner. I did have breakfast though which was included in my room price, was a good selection on offer but, the full Welsh breakfast was pretty small (one of each, I even had 1 closed cup mushroom..). All in all, had a great stay and was happy, but it was very expensive for what we got although I appreciate the location and time of our visit is peak tariff time.

The whole place is stinking dirty, matress? Expect springs in your back. Receptionist has attitude. Food, I wouldn't bother. Very poor quality, hair in the orange juice. Table sauce is jacks happy shopper. Once you see this you know the quality of the rest of their goods is the cheapest range. This has the be the worst experience I have ever had and I'm in hotels twice a month for work. Hotels .com scrap this off your recommendation.
