I stayed here with my son so that we could go to Zipworld the next morning. The location was brilliant, Zipworld is a few minutes drive away, there are plenty of convenience shops and takeaway options but we chose to sit in at the local curry house. We then had a few drinks in the Hotel bar which is dated but has a well used pool table, lots of locals and noise in the bar which will not be for everyones liking but we enjoyed it. Locals were friendly and music lively, everything was off by 11.30 which enabled a good nights sleep (the beers helped). Room was spacious with a cracking view and everything clean enough. We had breakfast in the morning which was good value for the price paid, £7.95 for a good sized Full Welsh Breakfast including tea. Limited parking but a car park at the back with a broken pay machine came to our rescue, £11 per night if working. It depends on the group you are with, expectations and duration as to this hotell being for you but we would both stay here again.

The cottage has all amenities, and we were lucky to find a parking spot exactly in front of it because the street is very narrow and short.

The location was perfect for us as it is close to Zipworld. Nice and quiet area. Directions provided were very helpful - worth checking on Google Street View before going rather than relying on sat nav.
Prosecco and Easter eggs on arrival were unexpected, pleasant surprise!

It's a great location for access to the mountains, walks and the coast, including Porthmadog, Barmouth and the Llyn Peninsula.
What's not so great is the limited eating out possibilities without needing transport. A couple of drinkers pubs and a handful of take aways (with not very good ratings, menus stuck on the window with blue tac etc). De Niros did look nice but it's a daytime cafe.
The supermarkets are excellent (Co-Op esp), so if you are happy to self cater you no doubt get better value accomodation here than would would in, say, Betws y Coed.

Having not been to North Wales for over 40 years I had hoped it would be more like the idyllic Bettws-Y-Coed. Unfortunately not, roads of small terraced cottages. A couple of good little supermarkets, a poor "old school" type Indian restaurant and a few take-aways. I think the highlight of Blaeneau is the slate mine !

We stayed here as we had a zip world experience the next day and it’s a good four hour drive from where we live. There are a couple of pubs to drink but not many restaurants to eat in, but we did eat at the red chilies Indian restaurant and it was very good, but it is very small so recommend booking prior to arrival.

Beautiful house, very spacious.
Beautiful house, very spacious. Great for a family or group of friends. Fully equipped kitchen to entertain. Amazing views out the back from the windows or the outdoor space, weather permitting. I couldn’t navigate the parking space but great carpark one minute away. Ten minute drive from Zipworld, walks from the door and within easy reach of Betws y Coed and Snowdonia. A couple of pubs in the village with local atmosphere. No restaurants within walking distance but plenty of takeaway options.

Lots to do, but we didnt have time to do it all. Weather not great so dress appropriately. Views were stunning, loved the steam railway. Didnt have time to explore the area properly but looks like lots to do and a zipline.
Breakfast at hotel was great but a few other places on the main street.
A coop and a Morrisons too.
We needed to use a taxi, ask for Nev, but there were buses and train station.

A great base for exploring the area.
A great base for exploring the area.
Good local eateries and a few activities including a wonderful little cinema housed inside the firmer police station.
Trish & Chips and the Blaenau Takeaway were great and would recommend.
It's a Small World has got to have a visit, it's pretty remarkable what this guy has built there.

Lovely cosy, clean and very well maintained cottage, just right for the two of us. The owners have thought of everything you could need from the well equipped kitchen, smart TV as well as books and games. Great having the parking at the back for security and loading/unloading.
Location is great for acccess to Snowdonia, coast and loads of walks. Not a large choice of places to eat in Blaenau-Ffestiniog itself but excellent local shops for food, including a large Co-Op a short walk away.
We liked that this property was close to Zipworld where you can participate in many awesome activities, was only a short fifteen minute drive to reach it! The price was considerably cheap for such a spacious room. I enjoyed the decor of the long mirror in our room (Mountain View room) & the free parking available was very convenient & hard to come by nowadays for most hotels, so appreciated.
This place is perfect! We booked here because of its unique appeal, and it didn't disappoint. The buggy to the hut was a great experience (this was the selling point for us). The people at the hotel were extremely helpful and only a phone call away if needed. Located up a Welsh Hill in the middle of nowhere, it's great to switch off and chill.
Large room, Tea, coffee and biscuits. Comfy bed, plenty of space for luggage. good size bathroom
Overall we had an enjoyable stay.
Staff very helpful and friendly
Hotel had a lovely vibe.
Kitchen was closed for our stay so didn't get to try the food. But the staff recommended near by places as an alternative which was great.
Very clean, comfortable and beautiful decor. Loved the hand written note and the tea/coffee/shortbread etc.
Got a free upgrade which was really fab, great room. We stay in a lot of hotels/b&b’s and have never stayed in a place as nice as this for this money. 100% recommend and can’t wait to return.
Location was great, we were booked into ZipWorld so it was a few minutes away. The house is well equipped, clean and comfortable. The neighbours were helpful with parking our car as it is a tight squeeze. Everyone in Blaenau Festiniog is friendly but don't expect posh restaurants and cosy pubs!
Everything. .
This cottage had everything you would need for a break in Blaenau Ffestiniog.
It is close to the shops and the train station places to walk.
And most importantly when you look out of the window you can see the mountains. Stunning views everywhere.
A cute hotel in an idyllic village! The reception were friendly and helpful and the restaurant was excellent! (although come hungry, because the portion sizes are ENORMOUS and quality was great!). The room was comfortable and I would stay again.
Location suited us as very quiet, a pub and hotel nearby for meals and both places very friendly.
Situated in the middle of places we wanted to visit.
Information and leaflets in cottage suggesting walks and places to visit
close to train station, in the heart if Blaenau Ffestiniog & walking distance to a few stores especially the coffee shop on the corner.
Richard was so kind & helped us to the train station with our luggage. so courteous.
The staff are very welcoming and friendly. The room we had was large and was equipped with all the facilities we needed. Breakfast at the hotel was fantastic with great quality ingredients.
Considering Covid restrictions breakfast was good. Location was good for access to areas we wanted to visit. Blaenau Festiniog itself however seems to be very run.
The hotel is well situated and in a quiet area. Shower was great, warm room
Breakfast was good- Bacon, egg and sausage in a BAP along with yoghurt and cereal.
