Perfect after a day in the hills
Convenient location. Friendly staff, breakfast was good, the bar was lovely in the evening. Areas of the hotel are looking slightly dated, but then it is a historic building. Would recommend and would stay again.
Great stay, perfect for going up Snowdon. Breakfast was good, we ate in the hotel bar, food was good and lots to offer. A great stay overall and plenty to do nearby

Location very close to the Snowdon train and walk. Spacious room and good breakfast.
Wonderful location with extensive well kept ground. Excellent and very spacious room with lots of towels, hot water, tea/coffee making. Wide variety of breakfast - cereals, toast, croissants,fresh fruit, porridge etc. Excallent choice fron hot buffet - good qualoty and well cooked. Easy parking and check out
Excellent service and breakfast.
The flush of the toilet could be improved by either replacing it or providing clear user instructions.
In order for the flush to work one had to push the button until the flush operated, this took about 6 to 8 seconds!!
