Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were luxurious with hanging chandeliers and a large bathroom, and the bed was incredibly comfy. The service was exceptional with the staff going above and beyond to make our stay special. The location was perfect, right in the heart of Beddgelert village. The dining experience had its highs and lows but overall enjoyable. The facilities provided added to the overall comfort of the stay.
The hotel is situated in the center of the beautiful village of Beddgelert, offering a convenient location. The rooms are cozy and come with delightful front views, yet a second chair would be a welcomed addition. The service provided was exceptional, with a staff willing to accommodate special requests and extremely friendly. The dining experience was a mix of highs and lows, with the inclusion of breakfast and a minor issue with undercooked bacon. Overall, the value for money is commendable, and the establishment exudes a sense of professionalism.
The hotel is perfectly situated in the center of the lovely village of Beddgelert, offering a true mountain view experience. The rooms are spacious and come with equally spacious bathrooms with lovely shower facilities. The service is exceptional, with 100% dedication from the accommodating staff and thoughtful gestures like welcome drinks and pet amenities. Dining options may vary, with the only downside being undercooked bacon in some dishes. The hotel's facilities are well-kept and promise a comfortable stay.
