Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was truly incredible. The rooms were spacious and had stunning views over the marina, making it a delightful experience. The service, from laundry assistance to tour arrangements, was top-notch. The idyllic location near Anglesea and other attractions made exploring very convenient. The dining options, while good, were not exceptional. Overall, a fantastic value for money with great amenities and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms in an excellent location overlooking the Menai Straits. While the rooms are a little old, they are perfectly liveable. However, there is a need for a towel rail and toilet holder in the bathroom. The service is efficient, offering laundry and tours/ticket assistance. The location is ideal for exploring the Snowdon/N Wales area with amazing views and is close to major tourist attractions. The dining options, while basic and at an extra cost, provide continental or full English breakfast with nice sea views.
The hotel offers spacious and well-equipped rooms with a fantastic view down the Menai Strait, but could improve on their food choices and meal standards. The location is beautiful and peaceful, perfect for those working in Anglesey, Llanberis, or Menai Bridge area. The dining experience offers delicious cooked meals with limited availability, and the hotel could benefit from smartening up its overall look. Overall, a tranquil stay with stunning views across the water.
