Great Hotel and well located in Eryri to give you access to; Yr Wyddda, Carneddau and Glydeeau mountains. The room was clean, well equipped and comfortable. The food was also good and the bar was reasonably priced for the area. It’s a 5 minute walk from Llanberis village centre and Llyn Padarn.

Good hotel, helpfull staff, plenty of parking. Free room upgrade. Downside buffet breakfast which is served from 7am lets down the hotel. Menu says hot breakfast, food barely luke warm at best. You could tell the sausages and hash browns had been reheated and reheated. No choice apart from english breakfast or cold selection. Would have been good to have waiter service at table and choice ie eggs benedict, smoked salmon etc. Perhaps hotel can take these comments on board which otherwise somewhat enjoyable holiday.

6/10 Good

Good location but half of the Llanberis attractions were closed for a variety of reasons which was disappointing. Large hotel catering for coach trips, food in the bar was good and the restaurant food was delicious however the breakfast was average as although we had a nice room to eat in the buffet breakfast was served in the coach trip room which wasn’t ideal. Our room in the Coach house was very small for almost £200 a night but it was clean and comfortable.
