We were genuine surprised at this hotel. We’d been to one the night better that was awful so went expecting much. We loved it. Rooms spotless, spacious, bathroom lovey… nice and quiet! We are dinner and breakfast there and both were great! My daughter has asked to go back here next time we go to Wales!

I'm amazed the manager here still has a job - must know something about someone higher up to keep his job - totally inept. The bar/reception staff on the other hand were super lovely. My complaint regarded the mattress which I could feel the springs through quote badly. The response I had from the manger (via text to the staff, not verbally or directly to me) was that he'd order another mattress and I could have a full refund of the room and find somewhere else to stay. Given this was 5-6pm ish for one night, he undoubtedly knew there weren't going to be other options, but didn't offer apologies (the staff did) nor offer any other solution. I stayed as no choice, then found the TV remote didn't work (except on/off) but given the previous, I couldn't be bothered to tell the manager, he'd probably tell me he'd order another remote. The room also said it had a desk space for work which it did. And a chair. But the bed was so close to the desk that you couldn't fit the chair next to it so you had to sit on the bed and have springs poking into you. Also couldn't be bothered to tell him this. Staff were lovely, hotel was mediocre, manager is a muppet. Lovely town, lovely area, lovely floor staff. Will return to Bala but not here.

Stayed for a night 29/08/24.My wife and myself. The room was a double. Spotlessly clean, enough room, modern etc. All the staff are super friendly /efficient. However I cannot recommend eating there, as the food we ordered was terrible.

Ok stay
Rooms could do with some upgrade. Floors were creaking and we were disturbed by those walking above (floor creaking again) and outside the door(thin walls no sound proofing) The breakfast was good and the lady serving the breakfast was pretty attentive.

Great stay
This hotel was a little gem. We had a family room and it was absolutely huge! As was the bathroom. The room and downstairs area looked recently renovated and looked great - think Lust wallpaper with a bit of Abigail Ahern. Definately recommend.

Look, I slept well, it was in a good location, some free parking and, as the desk staff inexplicably pointed out: I did get a 'very good deal' through a third party booking agency. That considered though, I'm glad to have not paid full price because it was not a 4* experience unfortunately. For cleaning: there is mold in our bathroom ceiling, the mugs had dried coffee in them, there was a spider in the window, and the light and bedhead are dusty. For maintenance: there was no privacy curtain, no mirror except the bathroom, no luggage rack, the ceiling lamp is crooked, a bedside drawer had a screw poking out, no hooks or additional towel racks (one small towel heated rack), the shower fitting wobbled dramatically and the bathroom door is water damaged. And for overall experience: staff woke us before 6am sitting outside our room to smoke and complain, the corridor smelled strongly of cigarettes and the shower basin creaked loudly with every step. Glad to be moving on.

Situated in the centre of Bala. Reception is a shambles and the eating arrangements appear more suited to a Western. The Staff, the following morning, were most helpful.
