Testimonials
We went to the Lion Hotel for dinner while staying in Criccieth — so pleased that we booked to stay again in February. Friendly, with a lovely country pub style bar. We both had the steak, cooked to perfection, with great portions and tasty sides. Very reasonably priced for excellent food and drinks, and we loved the selection of quality ales. Can't wait to go back.
We stayed at this lovely hotel for a weekend while visiting North Wales. Zoe, who checked us in, was very kind and helpful throughout. Our room had stunning views over Criccieth Castle. The pub and restaurant serve amazing food and drink, and we enjoyed a full Welsh breakfast with both cold and hot options.
My husband and I had an absolutely lovely stay at the Lion Hotel. The staff were all so nice — nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast was spot on. 10/10.
