We had a Castle View.
Nice pub/hotel in Criccieth. A small seaside town, just outside Porthmadog, but without the crowds. Good size car park and public transport, if you wish to have acar free day.

The hotel is pleasant but rather old fashioned, with narrow stairs and corridors. There's a small lift which requires some effort to open the door. The breakfast was good and the room was clean. Car park was crowded.

Old fashioned hotel- needs an update. Shower so small couldn’t wash my legs! Furniture in public areas old fashioned so giving no warm feeling to the hotel at all. Food and staff good

Not the best, not the worst…
Considering it was the last room available on a last minute booking, we were glad to have a place to stay… with a decent breakfast included.

A beautiful historic hotel in a picturesque welsh town. Excellent breakfast and friendly staff. Only complaint is the room was a bit hot and stuffy, even with the window open.

Comfy hotel, good location to explore the area.
Great stay, good location to explore the area.
Free parking, good Wi-Fi, good breakfast.
The bed was a a little soft but personal preference. The hotel had everything we needed for a comfy family stay.
Staff were also all very pleasant. Would definitely stay again.
