Really nice hotel with lovely reception and restaurant staff. Lovely, clean comfortable room, the only downside is there were toilets next to our room so every time somebody used the hand dryer we had a lot of noise. Bathroom was small but very clean. Will definitely stay again

Very comfy bed

We had a lovely break in one of the lodges. The food in the restaurant was some of the best food we've ever tasted and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. Some aspects of the hotel and leisure centre look tired such as the handle bars near the steps of the top part of the pool are very loose, rust around the taps in the lodge, some chairs in the hotel restaurant could do with being replaced. Having said this it didn't take anything away from the wonderful time we had. After climbing a mountain we really appreciated the fantastic jacuzzi, exceptionally comfy bed and warm, powerful shower. The staff are very friendly and attentive to guests needs, providing ice cold water for the rooms due to a heatwave. We would stay here again without hesitation.

Great location. 10min walk into Betws-y-coed. Loads of parking at the hotel. We stayed in a Delux Double room which had recently been renovatated and it was beautiful with a huge comfy bed, a sofa, a modern bathroom, separate free standing bath in the bedroom plus a outside seating area. The bath was ideal to relax in after a day exploring. Our only issue was finding a large clump of hair on the bathroom floor which the cleaners must have missed. Not a major problem, we simply picked it up with a tissue and binned it... but not great! The hotel also has a pool and gym, but we didn't use these. From the outside, the hotel overall looks tired and dated. But if you book a renovated room, you can't go wrong. We would stay again.

Stayed in one of the lodge rooms after doing the Welsh Three peaks. Being able to park right outside the room was a really helpful. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the half price access to health spa was a real bonus. Will be staying again

Great hotel

Very comfortable stay in one of the lodges. Great location with lots to see and do in the area, especially if you like outdoor activities. Snowdon hikes are a 15/30 minute drive away depending on what route you take up the mountain. Having free access to the swimming pool and hot tub is wonderful after a days hiking. Only negative was the quality and quantity of the breakfast was a bit lacking.

Spacious lounge

Great for overnight stay after a hiking trip. Comfy and spacious Lodge, reaturant and bar for convenience ( not used pool or breakfast- for an extra pay). Bathroom needs a good scrub tho, mouldy around bath tub and between tiles ( needed a bath to defrost after hike). Iron, hairdryer, coffee and tea- all there

What a lovely experience

What a lovely calm hotel. Loved that it was just a short stroll from the necessaries, beautifully quiet location. Everything was easy and staff super friendly. Spa was spotless. Breakfast delicious, plenty of lovely choices, some fresh uncut bread would have have elevated it. One hundred per cent would stay again.
