The hotel was lovely! It was so well done with stunning rooms, bar and restaurant. All staff were super helpful and friendly. Particularly the lady who served us as breakfast, she was so kind and great to chat to.
Great location with beautiful views and easy access to walks in the surrounding area.
Would definitely recommend!

On site parking, managed to get a space which was good. The hotel is nice and clean. Room was small but good enough for 1 person. It had a chair and a luggage holder as well as multiple hooks on the wall + hangers which was convenient. It also had a smart TV which was good as some hotels don’t. So I was able to log into my Netflix account and watch my shows. (Remember to sign out if you do this) :)
It’s close to plenty of shops and restaurants which is good as they’re within walking distance.
I got room service and the food was delicious! (Specifically the Margarita Pizza + Sticky Toffee Pudding dessert).

Very good hotel
Great location, on site free car park (but small), clean room and nice bar and restaurant area. Everyone was super friendly. On site EV charging option is nice, but expensive for slow charge. Not great was a bit of sewage smell in bathroom in the morning and paper thin wall (you could hear everything what was going on around). But that was minor things, we had a lovely stay.

2 night stay in the Gwydyr Hotel Betws-Y-Coed.
An excellent 2 night stay in a single room in the Gwydyr Hotel, Betws-Y-Coed. My room was comfortable and clean as was the bathroom. We were a party of 7 plus a dog celebrating a 50th Birthday. We ate in the hotel both evenings and we all enjoyed our food. The breakfast menu included continental and cooked food which was well presented and delicious. There was plenty of space to relax in the comfortable lounges. All the staff were were kind, friendly and knowledgeable. Pricewise I would say that it was good value for the level of comfort and service. All in all I would recommend the Gwydyr Hotel when staying in this beautiful part of Wales.
