BUG Review
This well located hostel sits in a spectacular setting at Pen-y-Pass, which makes it a good base for climbing Mount Snowdon. It is a relatively large hostel with several lounges, a games room with pool table and table football and a bar.
Price Dorm bed £16 (£14 HI/YHA) Prices are in British pounds and are inclusive of all taxes.
Purpose built - spitting distance of Snowdon, January 25, 2004

Top of the pass leading down to Llanberis.Car park opposite has limited spaces, but tends to be empty overnight (when you'll neeed it)Purpose built and very spacious. Rooms and common/catering areas excellent. Direct access to the Pyg/Miners Track etc and straight onto Snowdon. Try to steer clear at weekends to make the most of this. Beware this is used mostly by school parties, but my experience of them at this hostel is very well behaved, thanks to the hostel staff.No local ameniteis, excpet fot the cafe open during the tourist season.Llanberis is excellent for shops/foodH (& Pete's Cafe - check out their website) but is a very windy drive about 15-20mins awayHighly recommended
