Hotel in zona Maid of Harlech, Harlech

From start to finish this place was amazing. I spoke with the hotel owner Regan in February prior to booking explaining it was my wife’s 60th birthday and I wanted it to be special, and neither he or his wife Emma didn’t disappoint, brilliant hosts, providing fabulous hospitality. The breakfasts were all very good (we stayed for 4 nights) the breakfast room has all been redesigned and refurnished, as had the room we stayed in which had a picturesque view over the mountain which the hotel overlooks at the front. The hotel now called the Ty Afon - River House is situated within a pleasant 5 min walk from the centre of the village. Nothing was too much trouble and his staff we also equally friendly and accommodating. A really enjoyable stay and we shall definitely return next year, thank you for making my wife’s birthday so special🙏

I have stayed at The Fanny Talbot previously in the hotel rooms which are fantastic to say the least and the aircon is a massive plus. This review is for apartment 4 which accommodates 6 which we recently booked for 7 nights. To get into the apartments you have a front door at the side of the main pub door but is closed off with a screen up the disabled ramp. You then enter the hallway and up a flight of stairs turn left for apartment 3 or fight for 4. As soon as you enter the apartment you enter a small hallway with a coat rack and shoe tray and the stairs to the first two bedrooms and shower room and directly in front of you is the open living and dining room and kitchen. The dining room has a solid corner cupboard which has the spray mop, long brush and high chair. The dining table has a bench and three chairs which are of a high quality. The living room consists of two three seat sofas and a long velvet footstool tv cabinet and large smart tv. The kitchen has a washer dryer which is great except the dryer takes a long time so I only put it on before going to sleep overnight. It has a full sized dishwasher plenty of cabinets, pots, pans, kettle, microwave, toaster, oven, electric hob, cafeteria and some complementary Welsh ground coffee which is a great touch. It also has cup, saucers plates, glassware and cutlery except that there was not enough of the bowls, plates cutlery, glassware probably due due to breakages but should really be checked as part of the cleaning afterwards maybe. The kitchen has a large integrated fridge freezer and Brita filter water jug. On the 2nd floor you have the shower room with basin and wc and the first two bedrooms which consist of a double bed, wardrobe and bedside tables. Unfortunately there are no TV’s in these rooms. The third floor has the master bedroom and bathroom. The master bedroom has a queen sized bed, two bedside tables, a vanity table, double wardrobe a chest of drawers and a tv unit with a large tv unit. The master bathroom has a lovely deep oval bath, large shower cubicle, wash basin and wc. All of which is very clean and well presented. What would improve the apartments would be installing AC like the rooms in the hotel, a vacuum cleaner the missing kitchenware and a book containing instructions for the appliances and local attractions. The food is absolutely amazing at the Pub and i highly recommend you try it. It isn’t the cheapest by a long shot but you most definitely get what you pay for as the quality of the ingredients and presentation is truly spectacular. The chef was a finalist on Master Chef and i really cannot understand how he did not win. We have to say the staff were amazing and very accommodating as we had an autistic child with us. I highly recommend staying here be it the hotel rooms or the apartments which are reasonable prices and certainly a high end finish and quality furnishings. We will see you again on 2nd November and keep up the amazing work.
