Boasting a shared lounge, Base Camp Snowdonia, Gwersyll Cyntaf Eryri is situated in Betws-y-coed in the Clwyd region, 19 km from Snowdon and 25 km from Snowdon Mountain Railway. The property is set 31 km from Llandudno Pier, 36 km from Bodelwyddan Castle and 36 km from Portmeirion. Free WiFi is available and private parking can be arranged at an extra charge.

Bodnant Garden is 20 km from the hostel, while Bangor Cathedral is 34 km from the property. Liverpool John Lennon Airport is 120 km away. This is a very nice hostel. Very cosy and very comfy 24/7 facilities. It is possible to self check in at any hour, and there is basic food to purchase in the kitchen too at any hour - quite handy (tea, coffee, beer, oatmeal, instant noodle etc). The common area is very neat and nice - i spent quite a lot of time there, chilling after a hike, cooking and eating food and even working on my laptop. I stayed in a female only dorm, that has 6 comfy beds, and there were 2 toilets and 2 showers just for our room, so i never had to wait to have a shower etc. There are hair dryers available, and a whole separate drying room both for laundry and wet clothes after a hike. Beds were perfect, pillows were perfect, not creaky as in some dorms. With very good quality bedsheets and towels. Overall, if i am in betws y coed again, i will certainly stay in Gwersyll Cyntaf Eryri.
