10/10 Exceptional

Super hotel in middle of Dolgellau. Efficiently run by courteous friendly professional staff. We did not eat there but wish we had! Everything as it should be in a good hotel. Plentiful overnight parking in the long stay carpark behind the hotel. Some traffic noise as it is an old building with single glazing but that is to be expected.

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful little hotel in the middle of town. Easy walking to local shops. Rustic, but in a great way. Feels like what a family owned hotel should feel like, and super easy check In/Out.

Definitely stay here

This might have been one of my favorite hotel stays in a long time. The hotel was beautiful, the room was wonderful with a fantastic large bathroom. The staff were all friendly and the food was delicious. The town was small and cute to walk in. I would come back and stay again.

Right in the centre of the town, within walking distance of the local cycling shop where we hired bikes to do the bike trail which is just on the doorstep. Staff were attentive, facilities were excellent, front and back outside seating area. Meals were fabulous. Will definitely return.
Linda, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Superb hotel and outstanding customer service from the team. Stayed here for one night and requested an early breakfast the next morning as we were up early for a walk. The front of desk and kitchen team were very helpful with this. The room was beautiful and the evening meal we had the night of our stay was delicious. 10/10 would recommend.
Oliver, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great room and lovely staff. We managed to get a space in the carpark so the car was safe. We ate in the pub and the food was good, easy food. If you are a light sleeper, maybe ask for a room away from the church as the bells ring every 15 minutes. Although I am told sometimes they stop at 11pm, but you can’t guarantee.
Jessica, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Lovely staff. Great tea/coffee tray and water /biscuits every day. Fresh milk in flask a great touch. Food was average for pub grub . Room was tired, needed a paint. Dusty wardrobe. Mattress needed replacing -could feel the springs. No pillow protectors. Shower cubicle was full of mildew , trap was dirty inside. They did put 2 pillow cases on and clean trap when I asked. Very small bathroom, a large person would struggle!
