Lake Vyrnwy Hotel & Spa

Unbelievable scenery! Hotel is gorgeous, yes a little outdated but really brings character to it. We stayed in a garden view and the room was massive, massive bed & private balcony. Super quiet rooms where we didn’t hear a peep from anyone else. We had both breakfast & dinner, waiters/waitresses were polite, quick and brilliant at their jobs. Only downside was that Food did take 1.5hours to come to the table after ordering. Did have a word with front desk who just stated they were busy even though we were surrounded by empty tables. Food was excellent both at dinner and breakfast!! So good. Spent some time in the thermal suite and it was also really good. Paid £15 each for entry and just chilled on a quiet Sunday morning whilst everyone else was in bed! Will happily stay again, but next time book for 2 nights in a lake view!

We stayed for one night and can't fault it all... Excellent value for money, staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the clay pigeon shooting despite an error with the app - John was a great instructor! We had private use of the spa facilities which they discounted as we were unable to use the whole of our alloted time! Breakfast was delicious and so were the tapas we enjoyed in our room. Will definitely be staying again!

A very special place. Great food, incredible views, pleasant staff.... perfect. We loved every second and the meal, breakfast and stay deal is fantastic value for money. So much character, can't wait to return later this year. Spa is also good value. 5*

Comfortable country house hotel experience. The hotel oozes charm and style in the most beautiful area. I was a little concerned after reading some of the reviews but be clear this is no chain hotel in bland corporate style but full of class and style. We had a superior lake view room which was large, clean and very comfortable, and with quality teas, ground coffee etc. The balcony views were unforgettable. The dinner was excellent. We are vegetarian which does limit the choices but both starter (beetroot) and main (cauliflower steak) were first class, and the restaurant service was attentive and prompt. Will most definitely return

Couples romantic night away. Pros: - 4 poster bed - we did one upgrade from standard Romantic room. Peaceful Warm hotel Nice reception and cleaning staff Lovely range of teas and hot chocolate in room Tv works Birds can be heard clearly and beautifully from our balcony Cons: Looking beaten in places Could do with a massive investment Restaurant is awful looking. Nursing home vibe. Not decadent in any way. Crappy seats and tables from the 90’s. No table cloths and standard sauces in sachets on the table. Prices are more expensive than shown on website ie. Steak 35 not 30 as advertised. Mattress in room solid as a rock Room boiling hot. No heating on yet roasting. Must be below boiler room I assume. Top tips: Get a room upgrade Plan and Be prepared to travel 20 -30 mins plus for eve meal. The restaurant is pushing their luck because there’s no where else around close by that can offer a ‘nice’ meal. Just not worth it. By 6.15 no view any ways. Black. Chinese take away 18 mins away. Strong suggestion ‘Seeds’ restaurant- only open Fri and Sat but amazing!

We went out for a special lunch in the hotel restaurant today. Unfortunately, aside from the excellent service the lovely lady from Poland and her manager provided, the food served was comparable to what you'd find in an average café. The highlight was the warm bread served with the whipped feta. However, the side salads were disappointing, featuring browning lettuce, chunks of pepper, and white onion, indicating a lack of care in preparation. The beef fajita was chewy, which I returned, but the chef seemed unconcerned about the issue. While the view is decent, it's insufficient to excuse such poor food quality. The only positive aspect was that our complaint was handled professionally, but we didn't go there expecting to complain—we were hoping for a great meal made with care and attention to standards. Is that really too much to ask?
