The common areas were spacious, a large kitchen to use, showers had hot water and the beds were wooden so there was no squeaking. The staff were lovely and gave us advice for our trip - would stay here again next time we’re back!

Kings

Dolgellau

Located in Dolgellau, within 42 km of Portmeirion and 26 km of Castell y Bere, Kings provides accommodation with a garden and free WiFi as well as free private parking for guests who drive. This 3-star hostel offers barbecue facilities. The property is non-smoking and is set 33 km from Harlech Castle. Kings is a self-catering hostel, not a hotel. It was perfect for a large family group that included lots of small children. Communal cooking and washing up worked well, the lounge and books went down a treat, the football table was a success & the grounds, outdoor fire & bbq all proved memorable for the several related families that shared the stay. Dave (owner) provided friendly & discreet support that proved essential during an area-wide power failure.
