Excellent hotel/staff/location in Betts-y-Coed
A beautiful, spacious hotel, with large bedrooms and pleasant views front and back. Situated in the centre of Betws-Y-Coed and within a short 5 minute walk to the train station. Dog friendly with water and treats and dedicated bedrooms for dog families. We found that all the staff here were so friendly and helpful, going the extra mile with any request we had. In particular, James, who gave us a free lift to and from Zip World Fforest as pure car was blocked in by a cherry picker in the small car park! They do a really tasty jacket potato with tuna mayonnaise and side salad. It was hot, quality food and a large portion too! And reasonably priced for hotel food. Good selection of draft drinks. If I could change a couple of things, I would ask for help next time in taking luggage to the 3rd floor as there is no lift. I also think the wine is a bit cheap tasting. Other than these minor gripes, It’s a fabulous hotel. The staff are excellent. Faultless!
Very Large Triple room on 3rd floor has corridor to the bathroom!

Lovely spot, parking a bit tricky as there was some work ongoing which took up quite a bit of space in the tiny lot. Staff very friendly. Nice food in the restaurant.

Excellent hotel and great value for the price. The single room was a bit small, but overall nice and tidy. The hotel itself was very nice, including the restaurant/bar. Great location, and I would stay again!

This was such a beautiful property, you'll feel like you're living in a castle! Although it had a restaurant inside, we walked over to the other multiple choices just outside, wonderful pizza bar and other kinds of options outside. Street parking was easy to find. It's right next to the Betwys y coed, visitor center for any information to the Snowdonia national Park. Had one of the most beautiful waterfall/stream park path just a walking distance from there.

Arrived late night , the guy in the lobby arranged the check in and told us that the breakfast is included in the price as I found the price for 1 night is pretty high , while checking out I had to pay the meal after 15 minutes argument. The breakfast was mainly English and limited The room was very small but clean

Great hikers hotel
Restaurant was very good. Some of the common areas were looking a little worn. The room was clean and up to date. Parking was challenging as there was not enough in the hotel lot and we had to pay to park in a nearby lot for the day and find street parking overnight

Nicer than 3* - great value for money, nice food and reasonable prices - didn’t bring my dogs this time but was noticeably dog friendly so I would bring them another time. We arrived very early and we couldn’t check in early but could leave the car for free and explore. Mum loved her £12 breakfast that was both hot and continental and could go back for fruit and toast and cereal as many times as you wanted - tea coffee and juices all good. Comfy beds and great night sleep in classic twin on top floor - front view over the high street and nice garden / field with hills in the distance, very quiet at night and we both slept very well. Nice hot shower at 9am, even got good WiFi signal in the loft. Room spacious and looked recently updated with nice decor and modern shower room. The lady in the restaurant worked particularly hard in the evening (didn’t get her name) and although alone and busy she kept food moving and bills paid and tables cleared in excellent time and even chased a customer up the high street with some lost property - dogs were not allowed in the restaurant which I overheard a customer complain about but the bar food was very good and plenty of dog friendly tables and seating options inside and out with patio heaters. In the restaurant you can also ask for the bar food menu so get to choose from both which was good - especially for me as there’s a lot I can’t eat and didn’t struggle from either menu. I would definitely return, thank you

Lovely property in the heart of Betwys-y-Coed. Really easy walk to everything in the town and accessible trails nearby. Super friendly staff and great menu options both in the bar and at their on-site restaurant.
