Great location, fabulous food and friendly staff. Car park very tight for larger family vehicles and room was cold with no heating control staff quickly resolved the matter. Would definitely visit again in this historic inn.

Fantastic Hotel in Caernarfon!!!

This hotel is fantastic!! Built in 1522. It has three pubs and a great restaurant. It is located in the center of the old city. The staff at the hotel and people in Caernarfon were super friendly. We attended a wedding in Snowdonia, and this hotel was our base of operations for three days. We probably won't ever have an opportunity to return, but I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough!! Try the Welch Pie at the restaurant!!

We were so impressed (Americans, first time in UK) by the beauty of Wales. An ancient inn, within the walls of the medieval city, with beautiful and friendly people?) yes - we love it and we want to come back!

The staff was extremely helpful. The room we had in a newer part of the building was very large and had a kitchenette. The room was very clean, the bed extremely comfortable. The pub had terrific food. I would highly recommend staying here.

Nice old Hotel

This is a nice Hotel. The only downside was that my room was really hot. Unfortunately the Breakfqst at £14.95 ways too expensive for my work budget. The evening meal was nice but a bit on the high side price wise for what it was
