Base Camp Snowdonia, hotel in Dolwyddelan

Boasting a shared lounge, Base Camp Snowdonia is situated in Betws-y-coed in the Clwyd region, 19 km from Snowdon and 25 km from Snowdon Mountain Railway.

Friendly and helpful staff, great location only 8-10min walk to the station. Gorgeously decorated, very scandi luxe - simple and comfortable but also elegant and lots of thoughtful touches - like the super comfy bunkbeds all having their own curtain to pull across to make a cosy private area, and super absorbant diotomite bathmats, so no soggy feet. New hostel so some small finishing details still being completed, but the 99% done is brilliant.

    It was cheap to stay but I chose it because there was no other option nearby while doing the Snowdonia Way. The owner, Brian was nice and helpful and the dog Blue and the cats were lovely. The shared bathrooms are newly renovated and clean.

    Owners were very accommodating and helpful, and flexible with out specific requirements as well. The facilities were impressive, with a large and fully fitted kitchen, well maintained and all toilets and showers were clean and spacious. The setting was incredible also, we only stayed for one night, however will be returning. This hostel would make a perfect base for exploring the surrounding area. And the building itself is memorable and unique, truly one of the best hostels you could visit.
