The rooms were modern and nicely decorated, lovely walk in shower, plenty of hot water.

It was dog friendly, we don’t have dogs, I don’t like sharing my space with dogs, particularly when dining.

From the moment we arrived the welcome was lovely. Took to our room which was gorgeous, so lovely to see our dogs were cater for with towels blankets and treats first time ever on our holiday with the dogs. Breakfast was great you choose what you wanted the night before so everything is cook fresh when you sit down. Dogs was welcomed at all meals even had their own dog station with treats and water. We decided to eat every night the food was excellent and drinks was well priced. Every staff from morning breakfast to cleaners and bar staff was very welcoming. We were so impressed we have booked up for next year.

Great location, the room was beautiful and of a very high standard. Gorgeous wooden furniture. Lively atmosphere in the pub, we stayed for Happy Hour and some food, we had steak and ale and it was probably the best we’d ever had with chunky homemade chips and gravy. Great breakfast too 😊

Lovely net curtains but could really do with a roller blind / curtains to block the light, especially in summer. Breakfast was very high quality and made to order but it would be nice to maybe be able help ourselves to cereal, fruit, juice etc - we completely understand though that the current system really minimises food waste.

This was a group of 10 old friends who gather annually to explore a new area together. We found the hotel ideally placed in the town centre but near the front. and very welcoming. It was busy with football [Euros} and had a good atmosphere. We dined in twice and were very well satisfied with the food and service. Breakfast was included and also very good. The bar area was busy at most times we saw it, so clearly it's a popular spot but not too noisy. Our 5 rooms varied from absolutely excellent to good enough in our case. We had the only twin room [for lack of choice,] but it was well equipped with a really good though small bathroom. The doubles we visited were excellent to very good indeed. Lovely items of furniture and décor were scattered all over. It's a fun place to stay, with amazingly good staff, great food and good car parking arrangements at £5 for 24hrs. The railway station is also close to the hotel for arrivals or trips out.

No complaints!

Beautiful hotel room with lots of room for the kids in the family suite. Very clean and everything was functional. Breakfast was brought up to the room in the morning which was an added bonus we didn’t know about before check in so that was really helpful instead of lugging the children downstairs on time then back up to collect our belongings before check out. Staff were helpful and very friendly. We did know there would be a live band on downstairs in advance and weren’t bothered about this but other families may want to check the venues social media to double check this as it was very loud. We will 100% stay here again for our next trip to Barmouth as it was great value for money and we can’t fault it. We also didn’t realise until we booked but it’s a dog friendly hotel. We didn’t bring our dog this time but usually do on weekends away so it’s good that we can bring her here too.

This is a great place to stay in Barmouth. The pub itself is very atmospheric and lively. The room was exceptionally clean and very well-appointed. The bed was very comfortable although we did get a bit warm under the winter quilt. The bathroom was very clean and the shower was excellent. The staff were particularly friendly and helpful. The place is very dog-friendly and our little dog was very comfortable. Parking is cheap- £5 per day- via an arrangement with a local garage located a short walk from the hotel. We were given a key to the front door which is used mainly by staying guests so we didn't have to walk through the pub to get to our room- not that this would have been a problem! Breakfast was superb. We were asked to choose our breakfast items and breakfast time the night before, which worked really well.

Loved the room. Up two flights if stairs but was warned of this prior to arrival. Room was spacious and spotlessly clean. Not much of a view as looked out the back onto a coop car park but as we were only staying one night , it was of no worry. Staff friendly and helpful . Good location to walking around the town

Pub decor was a bit quirky and overwhelming so.wouldnt ordinarily choose it as a place to drink. Breakfast was plentiful , but cooked breakfast arrived whilst we were still trying to eat cereals. So was left on the table , but was not a deal breaker to us staying again

Our now annual trip to Barmouth, and we wouldn't want to stay anywhere else. The staff are excellent and extremely friendly. Nothing is too much trouble. The food is great, and we particularly like the breakfast. All good size portions well cooked. Nice bars with good selection of drinks and all at very reasonable prices. Our rooms were immaculate again. We all love the rooms we stay in. Lovely bathroom with proper sized shower. Nice selection of beverages in the room and a good sized TV if you want to use it. We're already planning next year's trip and will probably stay a little bit longer next time too!

That we have to leave and return to normal lives! Keep up the great work. :)

All staff were friendly, approachable and accommodating. The room was spotless, very well presented and the bed was comfortable. Plenty of storage and ample tea/coffee/milk. We have in the past felt excluded when staying in dog friendly hotels with our dog but The Royal made us feel very welcome and at home. The extra touches such as dog blanket and towel in the room were very nice - we always pack more for the dog than ourselves, so this saved us taking more than we needed. We also enjoyed the breakfast and evening meals at the hotel, plenty of choice and delicious. Parking was easy at a local car park for £5 per day, payable at the hotel, and only a 3 minute walk away. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Nothing to not like

Staff were very welcoming and friendly. The room was clean and very well equipped, and included a small fridge and iron and ironing board. The location was very good, but be aware that being in the centre of Barmouth, it can be a bit noisy...especially when the bins are collected on a Friday morning. We were there on a Thursday night, which was Happy Hour in the bar, so it was very busy, but we were still able to get a table for dinner. The menu was very much 'pub food', but was still very delicious. You pre- order breakfast on arrival, and this is served in the bar. There is a lot of choice and you can choose how much you have ( I highly recommend the vegetarian sausages!) The Royal was very much a very pleasant surprise on a very cold February Thursday.

There was nothing we didn't like.
