Many thanks for taking the time to review your stay with us. We're delighted you enjoyed everything we have to offer but we are surprised you found our charges for dogs too high. We love being dog-friendly, but it does come with more extensive cleaning in all areas where we allow dogs, whatever the size of the dog. We do feel that this price is competitive.

Autumn Break
Posted 2 Nov 2023 on HotelsWhilst the hotel is a little dated, the staff and service was excellent. The dining room and lounge were extremely pleasing on the eye and were much more modern compared with the bedroom. One thing that was not agreeable, was the compulsory service charge that was put on the bill in the dining room. This perhaps wouldn’t have been quite so bad but drinks purchased in the bar during the afternoon were also added to our evening meal bill, and the percentage service charge was added to that as well. Future afternoon drinks were paid for at the time of ordering.

Thank you for your honest review. We are glad you enjoyed the communal areas and excellent service. However, we are sorry you didn't find the service charge agreeable. It is not compulsory, and could have been removed from your final bill if requested (this is mentioned on our menus). Sorry this wasn't spoken about at the time, as we could have removed it. We hope this doesn't prevent you from staying with us again.

Enjoyable stay in Porthmadog
Posted 27 Oct 2023 on HotelsWe thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Royal Sportsman. It is true that the rooms are quite compact but we had everything we needed for our 4 night stay. The bed was comfortable and everything was immaculately clean. The staff were all friendly and helpful, going out of their way to assist with parking and a special breakfast request. The breakfast is excellent with a good range of choice. We ate at the hotel on two evenings and the quality of the food and service were brilliant. Porthmadog was a great place to stay and we would certainly return to the Royal Sportsman without hesitation!
