Great location

I arrived early but was able to access my room straight away. I was initially told that my room still had to be paid for but I had prepaid. This was resolved quickly however. The hotel is conveniently located on a regular bus route and I took the opportunity to visit Blaenau Ffestiniog 20 minutes away. The evening meal was excellent with plenty of choice on the menu. My room was fine and extremely comfortable. Some slight traffic noise as it was at the front of the property.

Generally good but better out there for the price

I’ll start by saying the staff and service at the Oakley are excellent. The food is outstanding and generally it’s very clean and comfortable. The only thing I will say and what’s stopped me from rating higher is that the rooms although clean are very, very dated and quite worn down in parts. The one I was in (17) was a Deluxe Double and came to £264 for two nights out of season at the end of February and I just didn’t think it was worth it for the following reasons: - Very dated and worn in places as mentioned - No iron or ironing board in the room. I did get one when I asked at reception but they had to look for it and iron and board came separately. Not what I expected from a deluxe room at that price - the furniture was just old and if you’re going to put a clock on the wall, at least make sure it’s working? - the extractor fan in the bathroom sounds like a bag of spanner’s and directly linked to the light so if you need to use the toilet in the middle of the night you’re going to wake everyone up! - the heating system they have running along the bottom of the walls was damaged in places and kicked up dust - breakfast not included, this was stated upfront on the booking I just personally think it could be included given the room rate I will say though that shower off the main was amazing! I would have given this feedback to the reception at check out but nobody was there when I checked out so had to leave the keys with the cleaner. Really hope it gets a refurb soon.

I'd happily return to this hotel. I enjoyed two nights dinner but would have liked to see plain yoghurt, smoked salmon and smoked haddock on the breakfast menu. Thank goodness the extractor fans turned off at night.

The hotel is conveniently located to explore the Welsh highlands, and the Welsh Highlands and Ffestiniog Railways. A good breakfast is served in the morning and there's a good food menu in the evening.
