What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Fantastic Flavors

The roasted beef was incredibly generous in portion and cooked to perfection. We thoroughly enjoyed the salmon the next night, which was equally delightful. Each meal left us eager for more! It’s truly a hidden gem for food lovers.

Exceptional Comfort

The family room we stayed in was impressively spacious with a wonderful layout, including two double rooms and an open area. We loved the added touch of fresh milk in thermos flasks for our tea and coffee, making our stay even more special.

Impressive Breakfast

Breakfast options were ample and delightful, offering everything from fresh fruit to a full English breakfast. The buffet setup allowed us to pick and choose, and everything was spot on in quality, making it a great start to the day.

Convenient Parking

I found the parking to be quite good despite being limited. The location of the parking was so close to the hotel that it hardly felt like an inconvenience. It made our arrival and departure smooth and hassle-free.

The hotel offers breathtaking views across Dolgellau towards Cader Idris, with rooms featuring small balconies for a lovely outlook. The service was welcoming and quick, except for the first receptionist encountered who turned out to be the manager. The location is central to the main social areas of the pretty market town, perfect for exploring the surroundings. The dining experience included great croissants but offered limited options. Overall, a beautiful view comes with a few service quirks.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location was perfect, right in the heart of the charming town of Dolgellau. The rooms were beautifully decorated and had excellent facilities, but the price was a bit high. The service was top-notch overall, except for one staff member initially. Dining options were limited, but the wood-fired pizzas were a hit. The facilities were well-maintained and added to the overall experience.
