2 night stay to the end of our tour of West Wales

Although probably the best hotel and restaurant in Betws-y-Coed it is looking rather dated and in need of some further refurbishment eg the dripping hot tap in the bathroom and the carpet in the common areas. A 4 star hotel but not sure how it warranted this grading. The staff were friendly, helpful and welcoming, we ate here twice but service was very slow due to ‘chef’ staffing problems, but the food was good. A bit surprised that a glass of wine came out of a miniature rather than a full bottle. The meal is also not cheap, £36 for a main and a dessert!!

A very lovely stay

From start to finish fabulous. Easy and simple booking, friendly and helpful staff. We enjoyed a 2 night stay b&b and added on a lovely meal on our first night. The food was tasty and outstanding. Surrounding grounds were beautiful & it’s perfect location to explore north wales. Also felt safe with all the Covid regulations in place.

One of the best hotels in Betws-Y-Coed

This was our second stay in this hotel and we are planning to stay here in the future when we are on our next holiday in Snowdonia. Amazing location, plenty of parking, welcoming staff, great breakfast, clean room and bathroom (!!!), short walk to the village centre. TVs are on the smaller side but we did not come here to watch TV. Electric cars can be charged nearby. We had a great time!

Not really a 4 Star. But good location.

Stayed at this hotel for 2 nights. Not really a 4 star and on that basis was over priced. Hotel very clean & breakfast was good with plenty of choice but not brilliant. Hotel bar was immaculate and plenty of choice on offer. Room was large but need of some TLC and the bed was not very comfortable.Tea & Coffee making facilities in room. The TV was probably the size of my pc monitor & for a 4 star I would have expected a 50 inch LCD full HD. The WiFi connectivity was excellent. Location is excellent at the edge of town with views over the river possible. Walking to the start of the town amenities is about 10 minutes.

Tranquil riverside hotel.

Stayed here for one night, it's a lovely quaint hotel, just on the outskirts of Betws-y-coed. The hotel is accessed down a private drive way and once you're there, it'd hard to believe the town is so close. There's free parking, WiFi, a well stocked bar area with a beautiful outdoor deck. We stayed in a superking size room. The room was decorated in a modern boutique style. Was spacious, had a clean private bathroom with separate bath and shower but the best part was the private balcony with a view of the river. Perfect for sitting out as the sun went down. Breakfast was included and they had a good selection of hot and cold offerings. I would happily recommend the place.

Snowden adventure and delights of Betws-y-coed

The hotel is situated perfectly on the edge of the town. Just a lovely stroll in the evening and you are in the heart of everything. The local walks are perfect and challenging, with guides readily available and excellent sign posting. The river adds another dimension, with walks that follow the natural lines of the landscape. Public transport for Snowden is a must, the car parks at the base of the mountain are busy from the early hours and expensive. The bus runs regularly for a nominal fare; highly recommended! There are a few pubs and restaurants worth a visit, our favourite being Pont-y-pair inn which served fabulous home cooked food which we devoured after a hard days walking.

Great Hotel - Except the Mattresses

The hotel setting is great in all respects: on a beautiful river, close to town but far enough away to not have all the traffic noise. The restaurant has very good food and at a reasonable price. The restaurant ventilation system at times seemed to leak food odors into the bar/reception area. The staff were great. We had a river view room which was spacious with a fine bathroom. Unfortunately the single beds were quite uncomfortable with one giving the impression springs were going to pop through the mattress at any moment. For what one pays at the hotel this really needs to be addressed. Sitting amongst a great walking area one would have expected the hotel to have it own suggested best walks brochure. Other than lending us an ordinance map they really had nothing to offer in this regard. Still highly recommend the hotel.

Beautiful surroundings.

The hotel is set in it's own grounds, lovely lawn and views, and the river running alongside. There is a nice patio too. Our room, number 3, was very spacious and clean. Good bathroom. Amazing view across the grounds and river. We booked a meal for the evening. I was disappointed, I had fish and it seemed a bit dried up, my husband thought the same about his food. There were about a dozen other guests eating, but was very quiet. They some annoying background music that does the loop all day. If you like a decent pint of beer, this hotel is not for you. Guinness, a welsh beer, John smiths and some lagers. My husband was not impressed. We tried another hotel to eat the second night, but it was full. The hotel was nice, but maybe a bit too quiet for us. We are in our early sixties.

A Scottish treasure

A complete joy - a country house hotel and just like staying with the family. Individual rooms and comfy public areas - if you want new and designer hotel furnishings you might be disappointed - if you want a stay that feels like home from home you will be delighted. Staff could not have been nicer or more helpful, the views especially from the dining room are spectacular, and the food was beautifully prepared and presented. We just need to find another reason to go back!!

two day break

Stayed for two nights in mid June. Staff very friendly and helpful. Situation by the river Conwy really nice. Our room was up in the roof and very hot but staff found us a fan when asked. Our evening meal was very good with nice fresh local ingredients our breakfast was ok but let down by cheap nasty sausages and bacon,felt like it was cooked to low cost which is a real shame. The staff and location are the real strong points of the hotel.
