Excellent stay
We had a lovely stay at TheRoyal Oak. Staff are very friendly. The rooms were kept very clean and fresh towels every day. We ate in the restaurant every night and the food was excellent. All in all it was a great stay.

Excellent staff and food, rooms a little tired
First class friendly service, excellent food in the attached bar, plus breakfast in the hotel dining room. Great location and parking. Room, and particularly the bathroom, in need of updating.

Great hotel with friendly staff. The restaurant severed high quality food. Location is good and Betws-Y-Coed is a great place to stay in. The hotel in places is a bit tired but kept very clean and tidy. Our room was beautiful. We stayed in the deluxe double room. Again slightly tired in places and shower could do with a new shower head, aside from that I would definitely recommend this as a place to stay.

First class comfort and service
We really enjoyed our stay here. Our room on the front of the hotel was spacious and well equipped with a pleasant view, albeit with a little road noise if the windows were open. Parking is conveniently just across the road or round the back. The breakfast menu had a wide choice and the cooked food was to a high standard. Whilst there are a number of restaurants and pubs in Betws, we ate in the hotel each evening partly for convenience, but mainly due to the range of food available and its quality. My wife and I were celebrating a milestone birthday and the hotel team nicely delivered a couple of treats that our daughter had pre-arranged. My marking down of the hotel's eco-friendliness was because the towels were changed each day.

Great location, lots of food options for evening meals though the Stable area was packed both evenings we were there but still managed to find a couple of seats and food arrived quickly. Comfortable hotel and beds, friendly staff. Great location for walking. Helpful staff in the Tourist Information centre for local walk maps. Though there was lots of parking spaces, it was very busy in the evening which meant driving around a bit.
Very good breakfasts. Would definitely go back.

Pleasant stay
Lovely old building in the heart of a really lovely picturesque Welsh village. I had a superior double room facing out the front of the facing on tot he little river and park.
There is a lively bar next door. It shuts up arounf 10.00-10.30pm though , so there is no night time noise to be worried about at night.
Staff at reception were very welcoming and very informative.
I passed this place on a trip about a month ago and vowed I would stay there sometime.....that sometime came sooner than I thought.
It's a countryside hotel, it suits the locale.
