Aberdunant Hall

Aberdunant Hall

10/10 Excellent
"We had a lovely couple of nights staying at Aberdunant Hall this week! The room was clean, comfortable, and quiet at nighttime (we were opposite the park which was a bit noisy in the evening, but quietened down when it was time to sleep so it wasn’t an issue). The holiday park itself also looked great and surrounded by so much lovely scenery. We had a meal at the restaurant on one of the nights and breakfast each morning which we really enjoyed and felt was a reasonable price (especially the breakfast at only £14pp for the buffet). The staff in the restaurant/bar were all very friendly, particularly Neil and Caio who looked after our table. We would definitely use Aberdunant Hall as a base again if we’re ever returning to explore North Wales."

The Cross Foxes- Bar Grill and Rooms

10/10 Excellent
"Hotel staff were lovely very welcoming and very helpful...a lady made sure she brought us fresh milk for the room and was really nice...thank you to her. Room was large with huge bathroom and big bath and excellent shower and spotlessly clean.. Beds were comfy as were pillows. 2 beds in the one room..a bed and a bed settee perfect for a family of 4...strangely only 2 cups for drinks. Hotel 10 mins from Corris craft centre which we were visiting. Had a lovely evening meal at the hotel..bit limited menu for kids but ok. Breakfast was included and this was the only area that let the hotel down...started at 8.30 and we were there at 8.35 ..only 2 people already there..to be told that they had only 1 sausage left....kind of a basic to have enough sausages for a full English brekkie..I get it maybe if we were last to go down and it had been busy but obvs they just hadnt got any in ready for brekkie...our grandson had it and obvs the staff were then having to tell every other guest as they ordered...heard a few people commenting how disappointing it was....very odd and have never come across this before. Overall apart from the breakfast experience the hotel was lovely."

"What an absolutely beautiful place! We were lucky enough to have stunning mountain views right from our window, and we loved watching all the different birds visiting the feeder outside. The couple who run the place are incredibly welcoming and friendly, which made us feel right at home. The accommodation itself was lovely and spotlessly clean, and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. We would definitely stay here again! In fact, we might be back this way at the end of September, and if so, we are really hoping we can get another booking."

10/10 Excellent
"This place really exceeded our expectations. We thought it looked nice online but it’s even nicer in real life. We had a family room and we were very happy with it. Everything was clean and well kept. We were very impressed with the quality of everything in the hotel, including the lovely smelling shampoo and shower gel provided, the super soft bedding and the nice, powerful shower. All of the staff we encountered were very friendly and helpful. Nothing we asked felt like too much trouble. The breakfasts were delicious and they had options for vegetarians and vegans, which was great for us. There are also EV charger in the hotel car park, which really helped with our trip. The hotel itself is in a great location for exploring Betws-y-coed and North Wales. We had a lovely stay and would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in that area!"

Additionally, Smart ShoppingOpens in a new window is a helpful comparison tool available through the app, allowing you to compare hotel prices and amenities, so if rooms become available or prices drop, you’ll be among the first to know for your last-minute getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices can fluctuate depending on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year. Therefore, being flexible with your travel dates may help you find a more affordable stay in a Dolgellau hotel. For those seeking something a bit different, boutique hotels can provide a more personalised experience and occasionally offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we’ll inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price leans towards the higher end, we may suggest alternative dates that could potentially help you secure a better deal.
  4. Consider your location: Staying nearer to major attractions or city centres can provide convenience, but it generally comes with higher expenses. For more affordable options, you might consider hotels in less central areas or neighbourhoods, striking a balance between cost and accessibility to the sites you intend to visit. You could also look into independent hotels located further afield, which are usually more likely to be affordable and offer a more authentic experience.
