- Great stay, outstanding host/owner. Located in downtown area. - Parking is on public street, I was able to find a spot in front of hotel, but could see where this could be an issue in the busy summer months.

Bedroom and bathroom facilities were good and bedclothes and towels were top quality. It was within easy reach of pubs and restaurants with live music and friendly people. Dolgellau has a lot to offer for a couple who break their journey. We loved Ivy House and Margaret was most welcoming.
