The Lodge Hotel  

The pleasant and efficient owner and staff. The menu which reflected the use of local sources where possible. The food which was imaginitvely prepared and served. The general décor - especially the restaurant and the bar area with its unusual Welsh slate fireplace. The spacious car park.

The following difficulties were largely dictated by the geography of the site and would not be problems for those younger,- we are in our eighties! The small motel-type rooms which opened immediately onto an open gallery. The cramped conditions in the en-suite area. The steps up to the main entrance and also up to the sleeping accommodation. I realise that this was inevitable because of the restrictions of the site itself - at least it was possible to use sloping pathways instead but these were not obvious on arrival with luggage.

We stayed at The Lodge for 3 nights to visit family who were also staying in Wales. The welcome and friendliness of the staff made our stay really enjoyable. We had planned to eat out in the evenings but the food was delicious so we ate there each night! Lovely atmosphere and super place to 'chill'.

Very good location for National Park and Coastline. All staff very friendly rooms are chalet style with own front door , very dog friendly with own grounds.

Total peace and silence all night.

We were very comfortable.It was very clean and the staff were very obliging.We were made to feel very welcome and the management was very friendly and most helpful.The bathroom was very clean and everything worked. The food was good and wholesome,so in all we had a very comfortable and relaxing four nights.We would go again.

Lovely loaction right in the heart of Snowdonia. Very good dinner.

The owner is a "hands on" hotelier which is usually good for customers. In this case we found him to be excellent, very friendly and made you feel at home immediately. The hotel is situated with many interesting historical areas within just a few miles eg. Conwy castle and Snowdonia national park. The accommodation was spotlessly clean and tidy, the food was very good, nothing was too much trouble. My wife and son are vegetarians and their preferances were well catered for. The staff looked very happy in their work, no doubt spilt over from the example of Neil the owner. There is a huge car park, which we found very helpful. In our opinion this hotel is first class and we hope to return again. We would highly recommend this hotel. Ken Pauline Joe Price

My first impression was that the main building was slightly dated. The car park is large and there are magnificent gardens with tables and benches to sit at and secluded areas all around. The entrance hall would benefit from losing the dark wallpaper. Once through the doors there was the friendliest welcome I have ever experienced in a hotel. Totally relaxed, smiling but efficient. Formalities over, we were taken to our rooms and shown how the equipment works. The rooms are clean and comfortable (again slightly dated layout) with the biggest bed ever. Sheer bliss. Once refreshed we all met in the lounge area for pre dinner drinks where we were able to order and were shown through to our table in the modern restaurant. Good food and service. The next morning we were one of the last to go in for breakfast but there was no sense of 'hurry up' and we were able to enjoy a leisurely and tasty meal. I would highly recommend this hotel for its location, friendliness, comfort and service. Enjoy.

We didn't have time for a longer stay.

The Lodge is a small country hotel, kept spotlessly clean by friendly staff. The location is quite splendid, and it has an unusually generous car park. The cuisine is of a universally high standard, contributing in no small way to a very enjoyable stay.

At the time of writing, the tv signal in the hotel's area was a bit iffy.

The managewr gave us a cheerful welcome and was very friendly and gave us a radiator as it was a liile chilly in our room.. The restaurant was good as wqas service there.

The room was ok but the bathroom fittings were somewhat old fasioned

Friendly welcome. Lovely clean beds. The food was excellent both breakfast and the evening meal. Both dining rooms were well designed, but with different themes. We will certainly visit the Lodge again.

This is not a complaint, but I love to have a cappuccino or latte coffee after a good meal, unfortunately only coffee with milk was available.

The staff were friendly and helpful and the room was beautifully clean. The food was good as was the service in the bar and restaurant.

very friendly and helpfull
