The breakfast was lovely and fresh and cooked well and the staff were very friendly and helpful
The staff was very friendly and took care of all of our needs. Location is great, the town is conveniently located to explore the mountains, the coast, and the castles. There are many dining and shopping options within walking distance and it's not too busy.
Great location! Good food options even at the hotel restaurant.
Some noise from the traffic on the main road, but not much.

A nice hotel, and room was ok, but some leaking in the toilet, and blinds that didn't close, breakfast was ok, eggs bacon, but not that hot. stay was ok but I found the room seemed a bit dated, staff were helpfull in getting me to book in early .
The room was spotless, the bed was so comfortable and was a king size instead of a double. The staff were so friendly and amenable, the only downside was if you want a lie in and you’ve ordered breakfast you won’t get one as breakfast is served between 7.30am till 8.30am also towels not big enough for a shower or bath

Well located, the hotel is a little old, specially the room and some upkeep would be great, nevertheless the staff was amazing and more than compensated the hotel itself

This property is in a good situation for easy access to lots of walks in surrounding area. Plus easy access to bus routes to Snowdon etc. the village is delightful. Will visit it again
Clean room with ensuite facilities. Friendly staff at hotel. Good choice for breakfast (full Welsh+options). Excelent meals otherwise - good potions of all meals taken which were piping hot and freshly made - impressed! A bit out of the way but worth the effort.
Lovely menu - particularly loved the Goat curry and my son wolfed down the ribs. Friendly staff. Only gripe would be that the showers were mounted way too low. I could only wash my hair by kneeling in the bath.

Told that Tesco vouchers had not been paid and we would have to pay for room so went somewhere else would like my money back as we did not stay. Property was damp smelling in reception and looked rundown and uncared for.
Lovely old building with character, has had a modest amount of refurbishment with still some way to go. Staff very accomodating, Good location , will definately stay again
