Set in Llanberis, 7 km from Snowdon Mountain Railway, Lodge Dinorwig offers accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking. Built in 19th century, this 4-star hostel is within 40 km of Portmeirion and 44 km of Llandudno Pier. The property is non-smoking and is situated 13 km from Snowdon. Sonni and Simon are the most amazing, gracious hosts. They answered every question we had about nearby hikes and the home cooked breakfast every morning was so delicious!! Coming home after a hike to a delicious home cooked meal was the best feeling. One night when the weather was nice Simon even went out of his way to bring our dinner down to where we were sitting watching the sunset so we could enjoy an outdoor feast 😄 The hostel has such a homely feeling where you get to know everyone. I would recommend it to every person wanting to explore Snowdonia!
