Top Things to do in Snowdonia National Park
The 10 best hotels in Snowdonia National Park, United Kingdom
Make sure to pack your wellies, because Snowdonia National Park is one of the wettest spots in the U.K. Besides being soggy, it’s also pretty impressive. A fairly easy hike takes you to the top of Yr Wyddfa, the highest peak in Wales (topping any peaks in England, too), where peregrine falcons nest in the jagged cliffs. The park also has the largest lake in Wales, Llyn Tegid. It has its own Loch Ness-style monster—called Teggie, of course—though some figure it’s just an unusually large pike. This Snowdonia’s wonders can also be found on a smaller scale. Keep an eye out for the Snowdon beetle, which has rainbow stripes down its back.

Reviewed By marioncZ5332FLAn amazing hotel, just over the wooden toll bridge, turn right. You will not be disappointed. From the amazing food, music, to the very friendly staff.

Staff let the hotel down
Reviewed By GrandTour26993143030Arrived in a cold and damp day. The reception we received was just the same. The lift was broken so was faced with walking up 3 flights of stairs with heavy cases ( we were on a road trip) . We opted to grab an overnight bag and glad we did. The room was quite a way from the reception with over 50 stairs each way with king corridors i between The bar and restaurant was good although staff stood around talking for most of the night and not attentive to ours or others needs. The food, however, was outstanding and very tasty. Our room was clean and very nice. Our view was overlooking the gardens. The bathroom had a bath and shower with soap and plenty of towels. Breakfast was good. A vast variety of foods for all tastes. The host and lady serving the hot buffet were the only friendly people throughout the entire hotel Overall, the service lets this hotel down. Beautiful surroundings and location with nice rooms unfortunately the staff just are not friendly

Dine here !
Reviewed By bradas1Met some friends here at lunchtime for drinks/meals/chats . The place is ‘old’ but has character and the tables are well apart in the spacious rooms. Lovely food (I had gammon and triple cooked chips) . The service was very good and we will definitely visit again if we go on holiday again in that area. Park at the ‘Marian’ car park close-by (£3.30 for 3 hours).

Reviewed By 363mervynbLocation excellent. My room was very small (especially the bathroom) but it was lovely and clean and had everything I could want. Bar was great. Dining less so. I had ordered a meal one night when the chef came into the bar and announced to everyone that he was not going to cook any more. Taking him at his word I left and ate in another hotel. However after I had left, a meal turned up and had to be paid for. Apart from that meals were fine.

9. Ty Gwyn Hotel

Seventeenth-century coaching inn in the heart of Snowdonia. Award-winning restaurant, full of charm and character, beamed ceilings and open fires.
No Cell Service, no WiFi, no seating in Bar area
Reviewed By Mark_Seaman1Lovely old Inn within walking distance of Betws-y-coed, HOWEVER: * Limited off street parking (almost all cars parked on side of busy road) * Only one cell phone bar if you’re lucky * Best case, you’ll get one WiFi Bar in any area of property, to include Bar/Dining Room, and even then it’s very intermittent * All tables are reserved for dining (e.g. nowhere to just have an evening drink). * In my case, I was asked to leave a table as it was ‘booked’, and instead recommended I take my drink to the ‘Resident’s Lounge’, where it turned out Staff were having there dinner on their laps (felt very strange to me) * I do not recommend room #12 as there’s literally a dinning table outside your door. I laid in bed listening clearly to a couple’s entire dining conversation.

Bryn Llewelyn provides excellent base for exploring the Snowdonia National Park and North Wales. We have been accredited 3 stars by Visit Wales (2017)
Top location, top value and top hosts.
Reviewed By dimmelsI had a return visit to this b&b and can confirm nothing has changed …. It’s still a smashing place to stay in the village of betws-y-coed. Ben and Sarah are great hosts and will do anything to make your stay a good one. The breakfast is from 8-9am which allows for a sleep in for me anyway. The cooked English breakfast is really nice using fresh local ingredients, but if you want cereal, yoghurt, toast and fruit that is on offer too ! The b&b is well appointed and I thought it represented outstanding value, again I really enjoyed my stay.
