The staff was very friendly and took care of all of our needs. Location is great, the town is conveniently located to explore the mountains, the coast, and the castles. There are many dining and shopping options within walking distance and it's not too busy.

A little Welsh Gem
Clean room with ensuite facilities. Friendly staff at hotel. Good choice for breakfast (full Welsh+options). Excelent meals otherwise - good potions of all meals taken which were piping hot and freshly made - impressed! A bit out of the way but worth the effort.

Well located, the hotel is a little old, specially the room and some upkeep would be great, nevertheless the staff was amazing and more than compensated the hotel itself

Excellent stay in snowdonia. Friendly staff and a pleasant place to stay. The place has aged and the footboards squeaked. But all good

Lovely menu - particularly loved the Goat curry and my son wolfed down the ribs. Friendly staff. Only gripe would be that the showers were mounted way too low. I could only wash my hair by kneeling in the bath.

The web page states Free breakfast with every room type, but the confirmation was room only. When i asked about this i was told i had chosen this option. We were in room 38, in the roof. The room was cold on arrival, the heating was off , it never came on, but there was a small plug in heater. The window didn't close and the wind kept opening it. The lift was adjoined to the room so it made a terrible noise every time it was called. This room looks nothing like the images on Hotels.com
The bar area was nice with a good selection of drinks, and the Menu has nice options. The guys working there were nice. Parking opposite is free. I had to pay extra for breakfast. i feel i was mislead

Booked this hotel for a weekend due to location to Watkin Path. Staff so kind & helpful, Rooms clean & tidy with ensuite bathrooms including baths in two out of 3 rooms booked. Use of lift to rooms. Breakfast selection plentiful and hot, evening meals superb & well priced. Hotel also offers a cool room to store food & drinks for your climb, as well as offering a snack pack to buy for your day out. The Goat Hotel is based in Beddgelert & walking distance to amenities. We will definitely be booking for a return visit.

I was a little nervous, I’ll admit, due to other more negative reviews, but there really was nothing to be worried about.
The room was great, it wasn’t noticeably unclean or anything like that. Bed was comfortable, area was quiet, and I have no complaints.
The staff were welcoming and polite, and the food was really good also. The surrounding village is beautiful, and the Rhydd Ddu path up Mount Snowdon is one bus stop away (or 8KM walk), which is a bonus.

The staff were so amazing and sweet. We enjoyed our time there and it was easily walkable to train or any other places we wanted to go. Also rented bikes and loved our ride around the area and to the sea.

Brilliant location for a walking weekend in Snowdonia. Very comfortable and great food. The service was struggling, but the staff were hard working and eager, so easy to be lenient.

My husband and I stayed here for a last-minute trip and were not disappointed. The hotel is charming - it's an older building with an old-world feel to it. The staff were incredibly warm and helpful and the location cannot be rivaled. We definitely have plans to return the next time we're in the UK.

The breakfasts were great and the staff very attentive. Our room was clean and I liked the large towels. However, the water for the tea time shower was cold. Overall I would stay there again.

The property is a Victorian building and is slowly being restored by the new owners. It is a work in progress and may not meet the full standards a modern traveller expects. However, the manager is brilliant, the rooms were clean, beds comfortable, shower hot and powerful and food (only curries sampled) was brilliant. Please go with an open mind and cut them a little slack if things aren't quite perfect, they're getting there.

The property needs updating, it was clean but interior looks tired.
We asked to be moved from our first room as we had a view of a dirty roof and a ventilation unit. Not what you want when visiting an area of outstanding beauty or the £200 we paid to stay for 2 night. We got upgrade to another room with a much better view of the mountains. There was an issue with rusty water leaking from the ceiling into the bath from the bathroom above, but informed manager and a handyman came to dress the issue.
There was an issue with the gutter outside, with rain dripping from it to the flat roof outside our room keeping us awake at night. The bed was comfy though.
Breakfast although nice, felt we were rushed to order our hot breakfast.
Staff were welcoming and happy to deal with our issues.

Two night stay - If you’re looking for somewhere to stay after walking the mountains then this is ok. If you want a comfortable stay I suggest you explore the other hotels in the area.
We had to wait to check in - one person was covering both the bar and the reception. Our room was spacious but like a fridge - we had to request an additional plug in heater. Had this not been provided it would have been a very unpleasant stay.
The bar was closed when we returned to the hotel at 8pm on the Sunday evening had we known we would have stayed out later it was like returning to the Marie Celeste
Even though we prepaid for our stay we were asked both on our arrival and when checking out to pay for our accommodation and breakfast. All in all not the best experience.
