Overview
The 18th-century Lion Hotel Criccieth is on the Llŷn Peninsula, a
5-minute walk from the Blue Flag-awarded Criccieth Beach and 15 minutes'
drive from Snowdonia National Park -- you can see the mountains
and the sea from the hotel.
Criccieth Castle, which dates back to the 1230s, is a 10-minute walk from the hotel. Its ruins are perched on a cliff and offer views along the southern coast of the peninsula and over to Harlech.
Frommer's describes Criccieth as one of the "best
towns on the peninsula", due to its location; the harbour town of
Porthmadog is a 10-minute drive away and marks the start of the 91-mile
Llŷn Coastal Path, which runs around the peninsula to Caernarfon.
Portmeirion, made famous in the TV series "The Prisoner", is 20 minutes
away. This Italianate village was designed by Sir Clough Williams-Ellis.
The Llewelyn Restaurant is closed November-March, but food is available in the Mane Place Bar. The bar serves British cuisine
made using local produce. Sunday carvery is served throughout the year and on New Year’s Day.

Bar only open for short periods so couldn’t get food if you wanted a lateish lunch (2.30pm). The Lion seemed to be the only hotel open - all others were being refurbished! Also, only found one other pub open on the day we arrived but it was closed during the day after that as that too was being refurbished. Hardly any shops open. Obviously a bad time of year to visit. Won’t go back.

Although we booked quite some time ago , we found ourselves relegated to a small room, with noWiFi service,on the far side of the car park. We actually felt quite vulnerable there apart from getting very wet went we went across to the hotel. It was difficult to gauge the ambiance of the main hotel when we were not staying in it.

The hotel and rooms are very dated.
The noises from the sani systems are ridiculously loud, it's all very well giving ear plugs but some folk can't use them and it's not exactly addressing the issue.
Bathroom was large and clean, however very tired and had a bad smell of drains.
If this Hotel was modernised and addressed a few issues it would be a fantastic hotel.

On booking asked for a ground floor room & was told we would be in the "Annex" which turned out to be the smallest room I`ve ever stayed in & to top that there was a note from management that we were free to use the ear plugs supplied due to the "Creaking of floorboards" from above & by heck there was....so no future recommendations, ie Face book is a powerful thing. So basically management need to address this problem, & it`s not a "Moan" it is a big problem.

Four mornings in a row I had to fiddle around with the mixer shower in our bathroom for 15/20 minutes to try and get a reasonable temperature to stand under. Water was either scalding hot or freezing cold and just when you thought it was safe to chance your luck you would get a dousing of what felt like boiling water immediately followed by a chilly blast. I appreciate that many other hotel guests would be taking a shower at the same time as myself but I felt I had to report to reception as many elderly guests stay here and could get injured. Hopefully management will get problem rectified.

Booked a double,but given a twin beaded room, asked again and was promised a double bed would be installed this didn’t appear senior staff were not very approachable so did not pursue the matter.
We were given a downstairs room in the annex which was very poorly insulated so we had a disturbed night due to noise from people above.
Coach parties took priority a meal times hence having to wait 45 minutes to be served..

The number of things wrong/ not working/ broken with the room and the food apart from breakfast. On arrival there was a hole in the wall behind the door which was stuffed with a tissue - it was never taken away. The main light bulb did not work, the socket for the kettle and TV was clearly away from the wall with a hole at the side big enough to be able to push things into. I think this was dangerous. The plug in the handbasin let water through at such a rate that the tap had to be turned on all the time to keep water in the bowl. There were lots of small flies in the bathroom all trying to get behind or come out of the unit directly behind the toilet. The noise of the macerator was very disturbing. Any food we ordered apart from breakfast was disappointing.

One sticking point was the shower, didn't work as it should have. Apparently it was known about from a comment by the previous guest, but was not told to us on booking in. Only told about it on our comment to staff. So if it isn't fixed the incoming guests need a heads up otherwise it could cause a problem with not being able to correctly regulate the temp. Otherwise it was a really enjoyable stay.

Ear plugs in the bedroom - a good idea as walls were not very thick! Good thinking!

Criccieth is a lovely place to visit, and ideal a base for exploring the local area. The staff at the hotel were exceptionally polite and helpful.

All I would say is that the mattress had has its day and was slightly uncomfortable but after all the walking it didn't take me long to drop off!

Rooms a bit dated not much room to hang clothes. We were in the outbuilding on ground floor and the noise from room above was very loud, in saying that ear plugs were provided.

the hotel was refurbished in December 2017, so everywhere is fresh and new, staff are very friendly and helpful and hotel in great position, only 5 minute walk from the beach

car parking is limited and parking on street is also difficult, breakfast was luke warm owing to hotel using hotplate for cooked breakfast, also used by coach companies for coach holidays
