On arrival we were able to access our room even though we had arrived a little early. Asked if we were having breakfast and when we replied yes, charged £10.95 each for both our days. Only to learn that it’s only included in the price if booked directly with the hotel. On entering the room I realised it was not the same picture as the one on the booking page, when telling this to the manager she advised that the booking is only on the amount of beds not the actual room. This was most likely my fault though as I don’t book hotels very regularly. The manager did however offer an alternative room but it was not really suitable for us due to there being more stairs involved. We kept our original room. Although the room looked as though it had recently been painted it was not looking very well cleaned. The bathroom floor was a little dirty, there was a layer of dust on the ceiling lights, all the skirting boards were covered in dust. The towels and bedding were clean though.
Some of the milks and coffee sachets were not in date, 2025, but there were plenty provided.
Had dinner there on our first night, it was nice.
The staff were all friendly especially the lady who served us our breakfast on the Tuesday morning, (I don’t know her name though sorry) she is a credit to the business.
The outside seating areas were nice especially the covered areas where we sat whilst having a drink
All in all an ok stay, when visiting Barmouth again I would probably try somewhere else though.

Food was beautiful bar staff lovely there was a family room to take kids but couldn’t get in as full of same adults overnight I think if you advertise family room it should be for families and not adults wanting to play pool all the time

Not too bad of a stay, it needs some TLC with the decor. The only thing for me is that it's dog friendly and they allow dogs to stay, and in every room. I'm allergic to dog hair and knowing that this hotel doesn't have rooms for none dog owners.

What a great stay we had here, we have been coming to Barmouth for many years and for a long break usually have a caravan out of the town but as we were only here for a few days chose a hotel in the town, perfevt location, easy check in, was able to park the car which was great room was perfect and the view was amazing and in walking distance of the town and close to everything we needed for the few days.

Ok but check elsewhere first!

Overall it was ok. The shower plug kept blocking up and overflowing and when we reported it to reception we were simply told “that’s what it does”. I suppose the hotel was ok. It’s old and needs seriously updating (with air con) but it’s clean and comfy. Would only go back if I had no where else to go! Although the outside space is more than adequate.

Smell of cigarettes

We had booked a nonsmoking room, and after not the best reception from the guy running the bar, we found our room. Sadly, we were met with an overwhelming smell of stale cigarettes and nicotene. The room was also very cramped. I could see my wife was quite upset about it all, so we asked for a refund and left. The landlady, to give her credit, was quite apologetic and offered us a part refund which we accepted.

The min-y-mor hotel is beautifully located, on the sea front yet towards the quieter side of Barmouth, about a 5 minute walk away from the hussle and bussle of the town centre/fair/arcades.

It had well kept grounds and rooms. All of the staff were helpful and friendly however the only downside was the beds/pillows. They were incredibly hard so my partner and I often would wake up with sore backs and shoulders throughout the night and in the mornings.

Very Disappointed 4* Rated No Way

We were very disappointed with this Hotel. Hotel rated 4*, we would be lucky to rate it 2*. On arrival hotel receptionist offered breakfast, but would have only received this if we booked direct with them. Room we requested Quiet Room, was a joke. Doors slamming everyday, no respect for other residents. This Hotel is a Bar with rooms, bit like a nursing home setting. Food was ok, we asked for a wine list, but didn't have one, no dessert list either. They tried to overcharge me for drinks three times at the bar. Room was not clean, a lot of mould around windows and musky smell. No net curtain every time you got changed you had to draw the curtains. Lovely view from window, looking at derelict property with no windows upstairs, and property close by run down. The website bears no relation at all to the conditions in this hotel. We paid upfront for a week at this hotel, they took payment in June 2021, never done this before, and would be the last. Need to look more at reviews in future, as this time it was the worst holiday yet. We made the most of our holiday and got out and toured the area. We were really looking for a well earned break in a 4* as its been such a long time and my husband has been sheilding through the pandemic and recovering from Lung Cancer, I just don't understand how hotels with such a rating can get away with asking 4* rates when conditions are so bad.

Over priced, poor service for not booking directly

Two tier service, if you book directly with the hotel you are treated with a lot more warmly and with respect then if you booked through a hotel booking web site, the hotel seems to be run by a couple who complained to me that the hotel booking website takes a 20 percent fee, so was no way they were providing a free breakfast to guests who booked using that method, both of them also appeared to be more courteous , attentive and polite to “ their customers “ as opposed to the hotel booking website customers , instead of the free breakfast as a hotel booking website customer I was eventually offered a “breakfast bag” for £7.50 consisting of a bacon sandwich, a yoghurt, a small carton of orange juice and a mouldy satsuma, which probably cost no more then a couple of pounds to make if that, also for a 4 star hotel the room was small, there was no hangers in the wardrobe and the shower was one of those old fashioned ones , were you walk into the bath and control it from the taps , totally amazed at the prices they charge and the service they offer and the stars they have , if you go to Barmouth which is lovely, I suggest you stay in one of the b&b for a lot less money and better service

you could have had if you booked direct !

starting with the positives - location the hotel overlooks the sea at Barmouth, the rooms were clean and the hotel is pet friendly ..a must a our friends brought there dogs.
negatives -The rooms were very small and in need of refurbishment. the beds were terrible and in need of replacement,the staff service was hit and miss, the food ( evening meal was below average, as we booked with Hotels .com we felt like second class guests as we were continually ask who we booked with and back came ...you could have had this if you had booked direct with us. this was the same with breakfast you could have a bag breakfast (£7 50) but not a full breakfast like the other guests even though the breakfast room was almost empty and they had at least 2 other rooms for eating. Covid was the excuse for this ...but we could have had a full breakfast if we booked with them.
Its fair to say we (both couples) would not stay at this hotel again but we would go Barmouth again!

Very well positioned on the beach front at Barmouth but slightly away from the amusements. A nice walk down the beach to the harbour. Friendly staff. The public bar area was not to my taste but the separate restaurant area was very nice with a comfortable lounge area. We ate in the restaurant and the food was very good. Breakfast was good.
Slightly annoying that the Hotels.com rate doesn't include breakfast and the cost at the hotel was more than quoted with the booking (£7.50 v £6.50). Taking the breakfast into account the Hotels.com rate is more than the B&B rate listed at the desk.
There seemed to be a lot of dogs around the hotel.
Overall a good stay and I would consider staying again.
