The Oakeley Arms Hotel

A thoroughly excellent visit. En route to North Wales,we decided to stop off here for a change. We sat by the welcoming fire near the bar. The young lady who served us was very pleasant. We ordered the lamb 🐑 burger with fries and the house burger with fries 🍟. A great choice. We'll definitely be back next time we are in the area.

We have been looking forward to trying this place for 5 years always going past it but always too busy to go there, our first visit was unbelievable, we booked as a family of 3 and ended up in the function room, freezing cold at a table for 7 with doors to the outside seating area opening and shutting every 5 mins the lovely lady behind the bar got the heating out on but our food went cold anyway. 2nd visit today (6/10/24) we booked on the day of our previous trip hoping for a better experience, we were seated at a table not only in front of the doors (next to the non existent harpist) but with everyone floating past us to the carvery not only one side but both, 5 minutes after setting our food down it was cold, we asked for Chardonnay and got Shiraz it could not have been worse if we had tried, I’m so disappointed, the only saving grace was the lovely chef carving the meat with a lovely sense of humour (by the way I did eat all the meat) I would like to say we would be back but……..

Wonderful home cooked food. Nicest chicken I’ve ever had. Fell off the bone. Lovely home cooked chips too. Also. was served a huge bowl of fresh vegetables which were delicious. Highly recommend. Came a few years ago and just as good. Will definitely return when back in Snowdonia.

Booked here for lunch yesterday 08/08/24. Ordered the quiche which was supposed to be full of Welsh cheeses. It obviously had been frozen and was as tasty as wet cardboard really. Served with Macdonald's style chips. My companion's roders were clearly unremarkable. Very disappointing

Visited here for lunch a couple of times over the course of a week after days out and also for an evening meal . The pizzas are amazing i was very surprised ! Fresh crispy base and lots of good quality toppings had to ask for a box to take my daughters home . The sandwiches and burgers are also huge and good quality ingredients The staff are all really welcoming and friendly and helpful checking in on you too make sure everything is great ( it was each time.) Love the quirky decor Thank you see you soon!

What a lovely, welcoming, interesting place to stay! We just stopped for one night after visiting Portmeirion after spending most of the week in Llandudno and it was such a lovely night. We relaxed in the sunshine outside with a drink in the afternoon and then we had a beautiful meal before a great nights sleep. We loved the decor of the hotel it was so quirky! Then a lovely breakfast which you order and is made fresh before setting off home. Would recommend and definitely stay again.

Went Sunday lunch time, extremely busy, you must book a table. Superb Sunday carvery, stacks of veg to choose from, nice big plate with plenty of room for a good plateful with plenty of gravy, lovely home made yorkie puds. Four choices of meat on carvery, Lamb was amazing Daughter had pizza which was perfect thin crust pizza, son had kids sausage and mash, good size portion, nice butchers sausages.

Lovely overnight stay. Great room although the bed was a little squeaky. Nice selection of tea and coffee and good quality toiletries. This was just a one night stay on my multi stage hike across Snowdonia. The hotel is well maintained and located in a convenient spot.

Hotel is grubby and worn, desperately needing some tlc and a deep clean. We ordered dinner which was a disappointment, we booked for 8pm and were told to order quickly as the kitchen was closing immediately. Breakfast was a complete shambles, we were told it started at 8am but when we came down there was nobody around except an extremely rude cleaner who stated it did not start until 9.30am and was very unpleasant. Eventually someone else came out of the kitchen and grudgingly allowed us to sit down. Meanwhile an alarm was going off the whole time all through breakfast and none of the staff were bothered to attempt to stop it. The toilets stink in the lounge area and there is black mould down the walls in the cubicles. There appeared to be very few guests staying here and I can understand why.
