"Excellent Hostel and very well kept. Nice clean facilities and good food available in the restaurant too. Only downside is the parking situation but this is out of their hands and well informed on their web site. Plenty of regular busses during the day so just be sure to plan ahead for where you park."

Top Bala Hotel Reviews

Wynnstay Hotel, Oswestry, Shropshire

Wynnstay Hotel, Oswestry, Shropshire

8/10 Good
"Stay was lovely and staff were helpful. The routes to get to the rooms are not pram friendly and didnt have a cot suitable for a 2 month old. We suggest asking member of staff to help carry a dismantled pram to the room to help off load the stress of getting into the room with a baby. But once in the room all of the key amenities worked well."
