United KingdomBala was a perfect overnight dtop for our vacation to the Lleyn Peninsula
United KingdomLocation is great, right in the centre of Bala and has a car park at the back. The breakfast is buffet style and plentiful, rooms are of a good size and we didnt get disturbed during the night. It was good value for money and would stay again.
United KingdomWe stayed here for three nights, during which the country was locked down due to Coronavirus. Not the best of circumstances but Barry and his very friendly team made sure we had a good time. Our room was large, clean and well appointed, food in the bar was good value for money and the location in the centre of Bala was great for exploring Snowdonia. Would like to return once the country is back to normal.
United KingdomVery good location and facilities. Very good value considering my breakfast was included in the price. Historic hotel with personality.
United KingdomThe staff welcome and care throughout our stay. was first class....always professional and nothing was too much trouble....Diolch yn fawr
