Great hotel ideally located for Snowdon

Nice hotel, room fairly small but perfect for the one night stop over I needed. Nice bathroom and comfy bed. Food at the bar was good and breakfast excellent. Will return when next in the area.

Great location for Snowdon

Great location if you plan to walk Snowdon, located at the satrt of the Llanberis path. The rooms are basic but clean and comfortable

6/10 Good

Nice hotel, great location next to Snowdon Mountain Railway. Good food. Our room was a bit small, and the only window faced into an enclosed "courtyard", with the boiler/extractor located just outside. The window didn't open making it feel more enclosed.
Carole, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A great stay

Very comfortable place to stay, near the town centre of Llanberis, ways to Snowdon, the Slate Museum (closed temporarily, unfortunately), and local souvenir shops. The hotel inside was perfect. I wish I could enjoy dinner there, but I didn't have chance. That must be great, too. Somehow, the price was reasonable.

Great location great bar staff

Great location, fascinating history, let down as room smelled funky and the sink wasnt cleaned properly- toothpaste on taps and mirrors not polished. Tea coffee caddy unclean. Clean bedding. Great breakfast
vicky, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I arrived several hours before check-in & was allowed to park on site early. I stayed the night before a big race and had to be up at 3am. As there were a number of guests doing the same race, the Hotel laid on a special continental breakfast for us from 2am - 4am, which was really thoughtful of them, and very much appreciated. Room, cleanliness, quietness was all great.

Wonderful stay at The Royal Victoria Hotel. Excellent location in Llanberis to take advantage of the walking trails available in the area. Our room was extremely comfortable. The staff were attentive and helpful. The breakfasts plentiful and nourishing. And the dinners, which we took in the bar area, were delicious. Would highly recommend for visitors to the area.

Beautiful hotel in prime location

Fabulous stay at a beautiful hotel. Food was very good, we had bar meals and a massive selection for breakfast. Rooms quiet and well appointed. We stayed in the single rooms , although small they are very comfy and suited our requirements. They were a bit warm though, other guests also commented on this. I'm not sure what they would be like if we had really warm weather. Staff were all lovely and very helpful. Hotel is well situated for the Snowdon Railway , Caernarfon and other popular places around the Snowdonia National Park. Plenty of parking. Planning on coming back soon.

Pranav, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

It’s a little tired. Reception really smells of fish from the restaurant. There is loads of rubbish on display behind reception and the carpet is very worn. So first impressions are poor. Room not much better and mattress was tired. Bar staff seem very stressed! Food good, breakfast was ok. Overall just a tired hotel that needs updating. It felt like a high class hostel. Oh, drying room does not dry anything! Location is perfect for climbing Snowden.
