    friendly host
    excellent food

    Recommend it for solo travelers

    The host was friendly and even showed me around, which made me feel right at home. I had an excellent steak for dinner, cooked just right, and the breakfast was a full Welsh that really fueled me for my hike up the mountains.

    It wasn’t inexpensive but still acceptable.

    Amazing location and food!

    Stayed 1 night and loved it! The location is just epic, right next to great hikes like Cadair Idris. Had a fab Vegetarian Full English for brekkie—so good! Staff were super friendly too, but it was a bit crowded in the bar area during dinner time, which made it tricky to find a seat.

    dated decor

    great food but dated decor

    The room offered a spacious layout that allowed for easy movement. The food exceeded expectations, especially the variety of options for both breakfast and dinner.

    The décor in the room felt quite dated.

    accessible pathways
    missing amenities
    no television

    The Gwesty Minffordd Hotel exuded charm with its old-world decor, especially the beamed ceilings and cozy lounge areas. Accessible pathways made it easy for seniors like myself to navigate comfortably and enjoy the delightful ambiance.

    A TV in the room would be nice.

    stunning mountain
    fantastic meals
    breathtaking views
    limited bar options

    Had an amazing time with friends! The cozy hotel is just a five-minute walk to the Minffordd path. Enjoyed breathtaking views and satisfying hikes on Cader Idris. The meals were fantastic, loved both dinner and breakfast. Great local beers too!

    Bar options were limited to bottled drinks only, which could be better.

    The hotel exudes character with its charming old-world decor and cozy common areas. The accessibility to the Minffordd path was wonderful for a leisurely stroll. It truly felt like a welcoming retreat at the foot of the mountain.

    fresh seasonal fruit
    local beer selection
    flavorful lamb
    warm room
    no tv

    The dining options were pure magic! We savored the evening lamb, bursting with flavor, and breakfast was a feast of fresh fruit and hearty Welsh delights. Plus, Gordon's excellent selection of local beers in the bar made for a cracking nightcap.

    The room was a touch warmer than we'd like (it was a thundery day), but it didn’t dull the cozy vibes—perfect for unwinding after a day of adventuring.

    delicious food
    comfy room
    no phone signal
    wifi issues

    the location is just perfect if ur into mountain walks or cycling tours. its right by cader idris which is amazin. gordon has a great selection of local beers n the food is super tasty, breakfast was spot on too. loved how comfy the room was, very clean and quiet. just the right place to chill after a day of adventure!

    but there's no phone signal n the wifi is really hit or miss. also, no tvs in the room or bar area, which was a bit weird.
