This hotel has the potential to be really good.
Lovely greeting on arrival. We had room 10. Very large room, high ceilings, cast iron grate in chimney breast. Full length mirror hung over fire place, super king 4 poster bed. Large bathroom with walk in shower and electric towel rail. First impressions good. Then we noticed how cold the room was (it was zero outside) and not much warmer in the room. Radiator was Luke warm as was the hot water.
Had dinner in the bar area, limited choice but what we had was nice. Staff and service excellent. Only problem had to leave coats on as heating not on.
Room still cold when we went to bed until we spotted the oil radiator tucked in the corner. Had to leave on day and night for the duration of our stay. Breakfast was excellent each day.
On opening the curtains in the morning amazing view over the river and up to the Forrest. Shame the windows hadn’t been cleaned for ages and the cracked pane not replaced.
Such a shame imposing hotel in an ideal location. Only place in Llanwrst serving meals at night, only one of two hotels in the town. It should have been buzzing. It just needs a face lift and better leadership.
Good value for money? Not really, probably yes if they would have turned the heating on.
Oh forgot to say, lovely big bed but unfortunately not the most comfy seeing as the mattress was only about 4inches thick (10 centimetres) and was resting on wooden slats.
My rating would be 5.5/10
