Unacceptable noise
Well we had no decent night sleep we got woke up till 3 am both nights due to banging and loud guests because of a wedding guests which we was not told about but it’s unacceptable that we was not able to get a decent nights sleep especially on the second night when we had to be up early to travel back so only got 5 hours sleep due to the disturbances

6/10 Good

Positives: amazing local scenery, very clean rooms. Negatives: Friendliness and helpfulness of staff was very hit and miss. Bed was very uncomfortable. Although room was fairly warm a lot of cold air was coming in from the window so not very eco friendly when heating is on. Breakfast had a good selection but unfortunately food from hot counter was virtually cold/lukewarm.

Welsh Road Trip 2024
Our first stop on the road trip. We sadly didn't get to take the train up to Snowdon but that was the only bad thing that happened on the entire trip (blasted weather!). The Stay at the Victoria was very comfortable and got us started off in the right way on our Welsh road trip :)

Mr Hill
This is the best accommodation you will find in Llanberis. Staff are friendly and helpful, the hotel is a bit tired but its warm and comfortable. Evening meal in the restaurant was very good with a good size portion, which was well received after a days hiking.

Room decor matches local industry
Lovely newly decorated Executive Suite room it appeared. The theme was slate, in keeping with the nearby slate industry.

4/10 Fair

Roon 230 on 5th October. Poky little room and the shower wasn't working. (The hot/cold valve was wobbly, loose and wouldn't switch the water from the default - about 90'C!). Called reception who said they would send someone to look at it. 30 minutes later, just before the scheduled dinner, no one had turned up. Checked out. Not at all impressed.

Lovely room, excellent food.
Just a one night stay to visit Mt Snowdon, well pleased with the hotel. This is obviously a Coaching Hotel catering for large groups. We were not part of any group, just an individual booking and were treated with a seperate dining room that served up excellent food, brilliant. The young lady on reception was very courteous and allowed us to leave our car in the car park while we visited Mt Snowdon.All round excellence.

Stayed for one night. Hotel is very convenient for llanberis and Snowdon and area. Single room was tiny though and a bit tired. Bedside loghr flashed and the bathroom fan screeched like a harpi for 5 minutes every time it was fored up with the bathroom light. Pretty much zero sound insulation so you can hear every detail of the conversations of people walking past the room. However it was clean and the staff were very pleasant and helpful.
