Excellent stay!

Perfect location, great venue, great staff

Room was clean and nicely presented. Staff were helpful Evening meal was very limited in choice but breakfast was good

Staff is helpful and lovely, property is right next to 2 mountain trails so extremely convenient; also right next to carpark so extremely accessible via public transport (one bus from rail station to and fro, as well as bus to Llanberis should you wish to explore the village). Rooms are clean, cosy, and warm. Shared shower has warm water, but would recommend bringing your own slippers to wear while in shower. Overall a super healing trip with breathtaking views - YHA making the experience comfortable and convenient.

Best experience, staff is amazing!

In a mountain resort

We’ve been using this Youth Hostel for at least 7 years but the last few times we’ve all commented on how tired and grubby it’s gotten. We love the location and the staff are very friendly but it’s time to close it for a few weeks and refurbish it because if it gets worse we will start looking for other places to stay.

Nice stay

I love this hostle. Its so convenient. Its clean. Its got great transport links via the bus system . Its got great food on site, bar , menu and breakfast all great. Bathrooms and communal kitchen all also clean and functional . Great to have. Parking can be a expensive but options to park locally and bus but make sure you check the timetables. Its simple but clean and convenient

Have stayed here several times previously before Covid, as location is beautiful, but this is first time back since then, and arrived to find the car park cordoned off. After asking at reception where it's possible to park, was told that as a large group is arriving late the next morning, the car park has been cordoned off to allow them to park there. Our booking was for only one night, and explained that planned to leave at the check out time of 10am, before the coach was due to arrive, but was told that still could not park there. Staff were polite, but there seemed to be mixed communications, as at first was told it may be possible to park there, then later not, and felt like was treated as a second class guest to group bookings as an individual booking. We were told that the park and ride in Nant Peris was an option, but we drove there, and did not feel secure leaving the car a few miles away in an unmanned remote car park with expensive camping gear inside, so ended up spending almost 3 hours driving around looking for options, and asking the advice of the car park opposite (which can only be booked online and would've cost £40, the same price as the room, defying the whole point of staying in a budget hostel). After coming back and forth to the hostel and asking the staff several times about parking options, a man said we could park in the staff car parking space, as long as car was moved by 6:45am the next morning (even though was previously told no)

For those wanting to explore North Wales, YHA Pen y Pass is a really good location to stay.

Great views, great breakfast, friendly and helpful staff. Perfect location

Booked the private ensuit, did the job? All staff,were amazing had breakfast and eveing meal. Both were nice. Especially after the hike up snowden.

Stayed here overnight with family while on a road trip. Just wanted something cheap and basic but it turned out to be so much more. Our room was basic with bunk beds and a big bathroom. The room was comfortable and fairly quiet but it is a hostel so is basic and you don’t get towels (but it only costs £2.50 to hire one). The reception area has a bar and you can also buy snacks. The staff are very helpful and friendly. You have to pay for parking across the street as there is none around but it’s only cheap. The best part about this place is waking up to the amazing views. We stuck around the next day to take in the breathtaking area and mountain views. Highly recommend this place if you are looking for something cheap and simple with stunning views.

Fantastic

Great place for climbing Snowdon, staff were really helpful and so welcoming, Highly recommend this hostel.

Really neat location and friendly staff. Not much parking though.

Perfectly located to climb Mount Snowdon Very clean YH with friendly staff

If you arent into nature dont stay here. Its pretty secluded but if you want a cute little place set in the hills at the base of your climb to snowdon then I highly recommend

Cool little hostel, staff were so helpful when I had questions about the snowdon paths. Would deffo stay again :)
