Excellent Hotel, great location.

This is an excellent hotel, situated in an ideal position in Betwys y Coed. The staff were lovely, especially Jude who took care of us for the week we were there. The rooms were good, clean & comfortable, good bed. The food was ok - typical breakfast fare and a decent restaurant without being spectacular. Overall an excellent stay. I would definitely go there again.

On site parking, managed to get a space which was good. The hotel is nice and clean. Room was small but good enough for 1 person. It had a chair and a luggage holder as well as multiple hooks on the wall + hangers which was convenient. It also had a smart TV which was good as some hotels don’t. So I was able to log into my Netflix account and watch my shows. (Remember to sign out if you do this) :) It’s close to plenty of shops and restaurants which is good as they’re within walking distance. I got room service and the food was delicious! (Specifically the Margarita Pizza + Sticky Toffee Pudding dessert).

Very good hotel

Great location, on site free car park (but small), clean room and nice bar and restaurant area. Everyone was super friendly. On site EV charging option is nice, but expensive for slow charge. Not great was a bit of sewage smell in bathroom in the morning and paper thin wall (you could hear everything what was going on around). But that was minor things, we had a lovely stay.
