Reviews and Ratings

Reviews from guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Lake Vyrnwy Hotel & Spa is known for its stunning lake views, enjoyed from many of its spacious rooms and the dining room where tables are aligned along the windows. Guests often appreciate the availability of hot drinks and a mini-fridge in their rooms, and some rooms even feature private patios and balconies. The Tavern bar is reasonably priced and offers a homely vibe, although the spa's early closing time might mean missing the sunset for some. The hotel is also a great base for exploring nearby attractions such as Snowdonia National Park and a 12-mile walk to a waterfall.

I enjoyed the hotel's location, especially the scenery across the lake from my balcony. Breakfast included vegetarian options. Staff members were helpful . The hotel offers reasonable prices for the services provided.
The food arrived too fast, even though it was delicious. A slightly slower pace would improve the experience.

The staff were very cute and friendly. I found the food to be very good (especially the breakfast). The views from the hotel room were very nice. The premier lake view room was spacious.
The hotel felt a bit unloved with dust noticeable in places. I felt our room could have been cleaner. I noticed the man behind the bar wasn't smiling much and seemed a little unfriendly.
