We stayed in the Llechwedd Glamping tents as we wasn’t able to stay at the hotel.
We were very happy with our accommodation, it felt like we were staying in a cabin as opposed to a tent!
It was clean, warm and very comfortable.
The beds were lovely, the shower was fab and we had a fully equipped kitchenette where we cooked some lovely meals.
As there’s no TV, we played board games and cards which was great as these days too much family time can be spent on phones or television/films. We had breakfast on our own terrace and walked our dogs on the Quarry paths early in the morning.
Watching the zip lines across the quarry was fun too!
We had our own log fire which was a lovely treat of an evening whilst playing chess.
Highly recommended.

It's a very cosy cottage. All clean and there is everything for cooking.
The location is superb: a lovely view of the mountains and waterfalls from the window, a high street with shops within walking distance, and main landmarks are a 30-40min drive. We all enjoyed this little quiet cottage as our holiday space.

It was nice to have dishwasher tabs and laundry pods available.

Myself and my partner had a wonderful mini break at the Y Gwydyr Hotel in Dolwyddelan. Located in beautiful setting, this little gem of a pub/hotel provided the perfect base to explore the surrounding area which was absolutely stunning. The management and staff at the hotel couldn't have been more welcoming and on the evening of our arrival we had probably the best homecooked Thai food we've ever tasted....delicious. The room was clean, cosy and warm and had everything provided
from shower gel, toothbrushes to a packet of bourbons to have with our coffee and tea. All in all I would highly recommend the Y Gwydyr Hotel.....you won't be disappointed. Thanks once again to the management and staff.

The village its self has a good size coop and nice fish and chip shop, friendlier this time than I have experienced in the past. Not far from betws y coed which is very friendly and caters for outdoorsy people. Not a long drive to the coast or snowdonia so a good base if you don't mind driving.
Obviously great for mountain biking (Antur stinog) and if you want to visit zip world

Traditional Welsh ex-mining village/small with a stunning mountainous backdrop. Blaunau-Ffestiniog is definitely a sad relic of a once thriving town although still retains a of charm.
Serviced by a small Morrisons and Coop and limited selection of eateries (mainly takeaways). If you're looking for a cosy pub and a dining experience you definitely need to go further afield. The location offers much more cost effective accommodation for Snowdon Hikers compared to that in towns like Llanberis or accommodation nearer the Snowdon routes. If you're happy to drive, the Pen Y Pas car park is about a 30 minutes away and Llanberis about 40 and the route takes you through stunning mountain terrain.
If you're looking for a busy, lively tourist trap near Snowdon, Blaenau-Ffesiniog is not for you. If you're looking for cheaper accommodation with alternative hiking routes a stones throw away, you won't go wrong here.

The accommodation could not have been better.
The accommodation could not have been better. Amazing little pod. Fantastic toilet and showers, very comfy beds and clean towels.
Staff were really helpful and punctual.
However … the location wasn’t for us. The site is a working quarry and with that lorry’s do pass by at a distance. The noise was okay but I suppose the view was not to our taste. It’s would be a great family base for the local area if you want to get the kids away from devices etc and reconnect with each other

It is a lovely little village in the mountains. good walking possiblities. you have two good sized supermarkets. Quiet . you can easily reach main attractions by car. We usually had our main meal lunchtime. but we did have fish and chips takeaway but ate them in local pub. The landlord said we could and enjoyed a pint at the same time.

It's a great location for access to the mountains, walks and the coast, including Porthmadog, Barmouth and the Llyn Peninsula.
What's not so great is the limited eating out possibilities without needing transport. A couple of drinkers pubs and a handful of take aways (with not very good ratings, menus stuck on the window with blue tac etc). De Niros did look nice but it's a daytime cafe.
The supermarkets are excellent (Co-Op esp), so if you are happy to self cater you no doubt get better value accomodation here than would would in, say, Betws y Coed.

Having not been to North Wales for over 40 years I had hoped it would be more like the idyllic Bettws-Y-Coed. Unfortunately not, roads of small terraced cottages. A couple of good little supermarkets, a poor "old school" type Indian restaurant and a few take-aways. I think the highlight of Blaeneau is the slate mine !

Very lovely, paid for budget (double) roombut it looked like a normal sized room, so that exceeded my expectations. Clean room and nicely decorated, fitted with a smart tv, fan, a desk and chairs (which not all hotels do), good WiFi connection. Comfortable, nice big bathroom with a tub and lots of “storage” space. Dining area also lovely and nicely decorated! Wish I got to stay longer, would come back.
A wonderful hotel in a great location!
There is parking available! Everything is very close!
The breakfast is excellent! The room is very clean and comfortable, with a view of the mountains!
Special thanks for the communication with the staff—everything was clearly explained in advance, from the parking spot to the Wi-Fi, breakfast, and keys. Thank you.
I will definitely come back again!
Situated just outside the town, the views from the front of the hotel were fantastic, with seating available in the late afternoon sun and a nice cold drink after a days touring. The facilities in the room were very good with a generously sized bathroom and good sized towels.
Nothing the place was a hell hole , how they can advertise on here as a hotel is beyond me it’s worse then bad I paid 180 pounds in advance for two days , arrived , was mortified within ten mins and left .. never to return it was disgusting on every aspect
The location of the hotel was perfectly placed for visiting both Zip world and Portmerion and the surrounding areas.
The staff were very friendly and the food was excellent. The breakfast was the best we have experienced.
