Modern, contemporary and clean room with a lovely walk in shower. The bar and restaurant were the same. Breakfast was fresh and delicious and we had dinner in the restaurant the first night too, also delicious . The best bit of the stay were the staff, so friendly with nothing ring too much trouble for them to make sure our stay was perfect. Great location too for local attractions and other eateries. We’ll definitely be back. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable.

Liked: Staff & service
The hotel was ideal for a short stay and all the staff were very helpful, nice and accommodating. The food from the restaurant was really nice, the Sunday roast especially. The breakfast wasn't great value for money, it was nice, not for that cost. My only issue was with the lack of soundproofing which meant that I could hear everything from the bar downstairs and the music from the kitchen.

Overnight Stay at The Slate

We stayed in room 5, it was clean, cosy, warm, with a comfortable bed. Large shower cubicle, soft towels, complimentary toiletries. Nice view from the window. We had an evening meal, large portions, a bit pricey but absolutely worth it.

The Slate is a lovely place, clearly a lot of thought and care has gone into the decor. Everything was spotless and well looked after. I stayed in a single room that matched the photos perfectly and was surprisingly spacious (always a welcome surprise). The shower water pressure was excellent too, much better than most places I’ve stayed! The location is fantastic — quiet, safe, and ideally placed for exploring Snowdonia, Bangor, and Anglesey. I even went to Barmouth and whilst it was a bit of a longer trek, it was still easy to get to. It is a bustling venue, so you have to expect some noise, I didn’t find it too much at all though. The nearby Trainline was also not troublesome. My only downsides were that smoke from pub-goers outside the front drifted into my room which was a bit overwhelming at times. Parking could also be tricky during the evenings/weekend - some sort of ‘reserved spaces for hotel guests’ system would make a big difference as it was a little frustrating getting back in the evenings and not being able to find a spot until someone decided to leave. Overall, very impressed with the venue and I was very happy and comfortable here ☺️

Had a fantastic stay at The Slate. Staff are excellent and very handy having the restaurant and bar downstairs after a long day travelling. Note that rooms are on first floor up a staircase, no lift. Well appointed and cosy room with modern bathroom amenities. Would definitely stay again.

Main reception is combined with restaurant and bar customers, not very personal welcome. The staff did welcome us kindly, but the access through common areas and kitchen waiting staff traffic was awkward. The steep and high steps too were uncomfortable to ascend and descend with or without luggage.

Birthday treat

I booked the hotel as a treat for my partners birthday. I felt the food was a little pricey for the choices available. Also we were quite a bit away from anything so if we wanted to have a drink together we wwre a bit stuck on places to go. However the room and amenities were great adn staff helpful.
