Small but modern

Recently refurbished rooms but small. The family room would have been better converted to a double room with a chair instead of a single bed squeezed in next to the double bed.

Stayed here for 2 nights whilst we climbed Snowdon. Ideal location as the Snowdon starting point is a 5 minute walk and free parking outside the hotel was ideal.

For some reason, they stopped serving breakfast and the whole town seemed to have closed down for winter, even though Snowdon was busy and it was a weekend. We had to get coffee for breakfast from the only open facility which was an outdoor coffee van. They would do well to keep their breakfast provision open for weekends.

Excellent location

Excellent location and lovely food. Our room was clean and tea coffee amenities were provided. It is above a pub so there is some noise as expected. The bed could do with a new mattress as it was very uncomfortable. Apart from that we had a lovely stay

Stayed for 2 nights. Great location. Room was clean tidy and very comfortable. Car park was very small and I had been blocked in but otherwise we will definitely look at going back.

Great stay!

We loved our stay. The outside of the Inn and the main areas do not look amazing, however the rooms are beautifully laid out and very modern. The beds are comfortable and clean. and the rooms are spacious. The Saturday night Karaoke was amusing to hear but as you're above a pub you can't really expect a silent night.

The room was clean but the room was small for the price and is located directly above a lively bar. It was not a restful experience. I had to put white noise on in order to sleep

Noisy accommodation

We stayed for 3 nights. Wanting to do lots of walking Snowdon being our main aim. Unfortunately I assumed this would be the kind of thing most would be doing so quiet evenings because of the early starts. This did not seem to be the case. Our room was situated above the bar with the beer garden right under our window. Let me just say we did not get any early nights. The noise from outside kept us awake Until extremely late. I feel like this should be stated before booking. I have stayed in many a pub/bar and have not been disturbed by any noise. This ruined our stay and our trip if I am honest due to tiredness. I would not recommend this accommodation
