Lovely menu - particularly loved the Goat curry and my son wolfed down the ribs. Friendly staff. Only gripe would be that the showers were mounted way too low. I could only wash my hair by kneeling in the bath.

Booked this hotel for a weekend due to location to Watkin Path. Staff so kind & helpful, Rooms clean & tidy with ensuite bathrooms including baths in two out of 3 rooms booked. Use of lift to rooms. Breakfast selection plentiful and hot, evening meals superb & well priced. Hotel also offers a cool room to store food & drinks for your climb, as well as offering a snack pack to buy for your day out. The Goat Hotel is based in Beddgelert & walking distance to amenities. We will definitely be booking for a return visit.

My room here was nice & had a good peaceful sleep. But sorry to say that's the only positive from my stay. I arrived to check in at the time stated on booking but cleaning was still in progress No sign of any other staff. A cleaner went to find someone & a lady arrived. Reception area seemed to be someone's office? I was given a key and told my room was on first floor. No information offered on arrival re. facilities and no guest information book in the room. Lovely large bath towels provided but would be nice to have a smaller hand towel too? Also bath is a slip hazard due to overbath shower so please consider a non slip mat for the shower. I couldnt work out how to lock door when going out so had to leave unlocked! I had no idea re. restaurant times as no information so took a gamble and went down 6.30pm. The place was deserted. I asked if food was being served and was given a table. I ordered my meal ..fish & chips .. was nice but nothing special. Im not sure but felt like it was more like a frozen supermarket meal & for the price charged was disappointing. I was the only one in the restaurant the whole time. I waited for someone to come to offer me a desert menu but the lady had gone again! so had to miss that. Went for breakfast but again absolutely deserted and no sign of any breakfast set up! Annoying as i had paid for a breakfast I decided to check out and leave. No one about again except a young man so i just gave key & left feeling hungry. Very disappointed.

Well located, the hotel is a little old, specially the room and some upkeep would be great, nevertheless the staff was amazing and more than compensated the hotel itself

It is am old building, facilities are dated and average at best. Toilet tough to flush, hotel WiFi did not reach our room, etc. Nice staff, and apparently new ownership trying to slowly renovate. Has some history and charm and in a great town.

I was a little nervous, I’ll admit, due to other more negative reviews, but there really was nothing to be worried about. The room was great, it wasn’t noticeably unclean or anything like that. Bed was comfortable, area was quiet, and I have no complaints. The staff were welcoming and polite, and the food was really good also. The surrounding village is beautiful, and the Rhydd Ddu path up Mount Snowdon is one bus stop away (or 8KM walk), which is a bonus.

Brilliant location for a walking weekend in Snowdonia. Very comfortable and great food. The service was struggling, but the staff were hard working and eager, so easy to be lenient.

The property is a Victorian building and is slowly being restored by the new owners. It is a work in progress and may not meet the full standards a modern traveller expects. However, the manager is brilliant, the rooms were clean, beds comfortable, shower hot and powerful and food (only curries sampled) was brilliant. Please go with an open mind and cut them a little slack if things aren't quite perfect, they're getting there.
