We stayed for 3 nights over New Years as a base for Snowdon and other walks: Staff were professional, friendly and very helpful / accommodating. Food was absolutely fantastic, we considered whether we should try somewhere else for an evening and couldn't on the fear of being disappointed. Quality produce, beautifully presented, served hot and great timing in the kitchen... More

Myself and my partner have just returned from a weekend at The Royal Sportsman Hotel, we had a larger double room which had plenty of space.

The Hotel is an old coaching house on the main street in Pothmadog. The staff are friendly and very helpful. The star of the hotel is the chef, we ate from the Classic menu, the meals we ate were hot and cooked to perfection. The Chocolate Tort is to die for. When we return I hope to try the Rosette...

We really enjoyed a weekend break here, spotless and very cosy little hotel. The rooms were comfortable and well equipped, the staff helpful, warm and friendly. Continental breakfast was included, and was excellent- great range of cereals, fruits, pastrys, drinks, and even toast made from homemade bread! We'll definitely be back. More

The only slight negatives were having to check in by 9pm and the food, while nice enough,... More

The location is very convenient and we love the twon, harbour and steam trains. The only quibble was the poor lighting in our room made it difficult to apply make up in... More
