A very pleasant end to a very long day and very weary travellers. A good end to a 3 peaks challenge.
Pros:

Staff were helpful and efficient. Nice decor' and spacious rooms.
We were at the end of a 3 peaks run, so tired.
The bar stayed open as long as we needed them, the barmen helpful and provided crockery and cutlery for a take away curry, as we were to late to get food elsewhere. a happy party of 8 starving climbers!

Cons:

Not a breakfast buffet man, but good quality food

Stay for the location but don't expect much
Pros:

The location. The hotel is old and dated but the coom ares are spacious and the food was ok.

Cons:

There may be better rooms but we were stuck on 1st floor at the back with a tiny window overlooking the kitchen roof with an air conditioner a couple of feet away.. the room was small even for UK standards,but had everything you needed. Depressing colour scheme and with lights that flickered. Bathroom was even tinier and unpleasant to use.

A place to sleep and then leave.

The rooms need to be updated to match the reception and the spa
Pros:

Good location and spa is very nice

Cons:

There were parties in other hotel rooms at night and the hotel security couldn't do very much to stop the noise. The rooms themselves are very dated.

Nice stay but not worth the money.
Pros:

Staff were extremely helpful and accommodating. Room was spacious.

Cons:

Breakfast was ok, food prices were expensive with not much choice. Curtains were damaged and there was no way of turning the heater in the bathroom off, which made the room extremely warm.

Wonderful visit to this historical hotel with beautiful interior.Caernarfon is a jewel of a town with glorious surroundi
Pros:

Amazing location, views, food. Great value for money. Lovely lunges and relaxing to sit and chat.

Cons:

The awful and chaotic hours for the swimming pool and spa. There are inexplicable rules about when it is open and also children are allowed. When you are trying to fit in the lovely meal that we had and a chance to look around the town, strict rules to when under 16s can attend the spa appear to be incongruous and lacking thought.

Pool experience killed the stay
Pros:

I booked this hotel as a base to climb Snowdon from. The Location was good but the biggest appeal was the pool and sauna/steam facilities. Unfortunately during the entirety of our stay half the pool was closed for swimming lessons which means you essentiallyt have all hotel guests using one lane to swim in and for any kids to play in. The pool rules for children swimming are utterly ridiculous. My 15 year old son who is 6ft 1 and a very strong swimmer was not allowed to swim without an accompanying adult. Okay fair enough but that meant I was not allowed to sit on a sun lounger and watch, or be in the sauna or even sit on the pool edge with feet submerged in the water and watch him. I had to physically be in the pool with him. Not what I had expected and in my opinion complete over kill.
Our room was unbearably hot. Only one window opened and the other was jammed shut. The room was very dusty/dirty behind the bed side table (I discovered this whilst looking for a plug socket to charge my phone). Incidentally there were no plug sockets near the bed side table which was super annoying as I use my phone as an alarm clock.
The toilet had a blanket of dust on the waste pipe that gave me the ick.
The only positive about the hotel was the staff. All super friendly and helpful with the exception of the pool staff who were really taking the job of ensuring all
Swimming teenagers were accompanied by a swimming parent with shoulders submerged under the water and preferably also swimming in an orderly fashion in the allocated hotel guest swimming lane.
I would not return to this hotel. I would not recommend I am afraid.

A perfectly acceptable hotel in a good location and good value for money
Pros:

We stayed at this hotel as a stop-over and it was perfectly fine. It's in a good location for visiting North Wales but the room was quite tired. In need of updating. The public areas of the hotel are better.

Cons:

The room was quite tired and in need of updating.
