Liked: Cleanliness
Great value for money, food was of a reasonable standard with plenty of choice. Our room was cosy but had what was required, although it was very warm and the beds a little hard. If you’re climbing then it’s fantastic.
Everything was great and perfect location for hiking and visiting north wales

This is the best accommodation you will find in Llanberis. Staff are friendly and helpful, the hotel is a bit tired but its warm and comfortable. Evening meal in the restaurant was very good with a good size portion, which was well received after a days hiking.

Excellent hotel and location
Beautiful hotel, clean, very comfortable room. Breakfast brilliant, staff lovely, well situated, look forward to returning
It's a 3* was clean and comfy very friendly staff. Needs a revamp here and there. Floor boards very creaky everywhere. Could have done with a bit more choice for breakfast but again it was all yummy that was there. Hotel is massive and near everything in that area
Roon 230 on 5th October. Poky little room and the shower wasn't working. (The hot/cold valve was wobbly, loose and wouldn't switch the water from the default - about 90'C!). Called reception who said they would send someone to look at it. 30 minutes later, just before the scheduled dinner, no one had turned up. Checked out. Not at all impressed.
Just a one night stay to visit Mt Snowdon, well pleased
with the hotel. This is obviously a Coaching Hotel catering for large groups. We were not part of any group, just an individual booking and were treated with a seperate dining room that served up excellent food, brilliant. The young lady on reception was very courteous and allowed us to leave our car in the car park while we visited Mt Snowdon.All round excellence.

Stayed for one night. Hotel is very convenient for llanberis and Snowdon and area. Single room was tiny though and a bit tired. Bedside loghr flashed and the bathroom fan screeched like a harpi for 5 minutes every time it was fored up with the bathroom light. Pretty much zero sound insulation so you can hear every detail of the conversations of people walking past the room. However it was clean and the staff were very pleasant and helpful.
Wonderful Welsh 'Croeso' from breakfast staff and good choice to start the day. Great location, room clean bed comfortable. Would stay here again. Diolch.
Beautiful building food was lovely.
Only suggestion is to sound proof the rooms near restaurant as it was a bit noisy whilst it was open.

Too busy to relax
Hotel was extremely busy 7/9/24, room 110 was hot and stuffy, window opened onto rear courtyard, which was noisy with people talking right under the window at midnight. Restaurant was fully booked ate in the bar which was like Waterloo at rush hour. Very disappointed.
