YHA Conwy, hotel in Conwy

YHA Conwy has spectacular views of Conwy Castle and Snowdonia. Less than 1.5 miles from the beach, it offers affordable accommodations with laundry facilities, home-cooked food and a self-catering...

This was the nicest hostel I have stayed at. The view was fabulous. The rooms were excellent. They even provide breakfast and dinner for an extra fee and it is good. I recommend the steak pie or the Pesto Pasta for vegetarian choice. The staff is lovely. Very helpful.

Llandudno Hostel, hotel in Llandudno

Llandudno Hostel is in the town center, less than 5 minutes' walk from the main shopping street, train station and beach. Private and dormitory accommodations available and Wi-Fi is free.

I received a very warm welcome here on what was a particularly cold night. Unlike other places I stayed on this trip, the room was really toasty, which made all the difference waking up into a snow-filled town. The hostel is very convenient for everything in Llandudno, including the transport links.

Woodlands Centre, hotel in Betws-y-coed

Located in Betws-y-coed, 12 miles from Snowdon, Woodlands Centre has accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace.

I booked my stay very last minute after a change of plan. The bunkhouse was clean, tidy and warm when I arrived and I had good communication from the wardens. I love this bunkhouse for its location and amazing drying room to hang all my adventure kit!

Base Camp Snowdonia, hotel in Betws-y-coed

The staff were insanely friendly, the bedding was very comfortable, and the cleanliness was great. The curtains on the bed were great at blocking out light and we were provided with a towel on arrival. The bathrooms were clean and were hotel quality.

The Vagabond Bunkhouse, hotel in Betws-y-coed

Offering a restaurant, The Vagabond Bunkhouse is located in Betws-y-coed, known as the gateway to Snowdonia National Park.

Hostel was quiet so I actually got a whole room to myself, which they didn't need to do so that was really nice of them to give me the option of privacy!

    Great location and lovely hosts. It is located with 10-15 min from Conwy and there are nice country pubs nearby. Plenty of spaces in the car park, the area is safe and people are friendly. There were few moulds patched in some corners but I understand that these things come and go in a damp countryside. Overall I was happy with my stay and I may go back at some point.

    Love feel about the youth hostel. The family room was excellent. The kids loved the range of games available. The breakfast was good. The staff were very hardworking and welcoming, thank you. The proximity to the twin is great and lovely views of the hills and sea.

    Great small details that really made us enjoy our stay - complementary continental breakfast brought to the room in the morning, we could order pizza from downstairs directly to the room, there were also baked brownies left for us in the room when we arrived. The TV had Netflix accounts to use. The pizza was also delicious! Great location in the centre of Conwy. Cheap parking across the road. Would definitely visit again.
