We were very impressed with the Lion Hotel in Criccieth. It is in a great position with plenty of parking. It is a traditional character hotel, clean, well maintained and decorated with lovely staff. It was also great value, would recommend as a base to explore the beautiful Llyn Peninsula.

Decent hotel - typical old hotel building that's been progressively modernized. The staff are friendly, the breakfast was good, and the room was comfortable - if small. I'd be happy to stay here again.
