Inspector's unannounced visit and quality report-August 2007 |

"It
may not be to everybody’s taste, but personally I say “thank
God” for hotels like the Royal Sportsman. They have heart. They
have soul...and the hotel’s 28 rooms are a good size, spotlessly
clean and comfortable....the service throughout first class. Certainly
the food we tried was top-notch. The pan-seared scallops got 10 out
of 10 " Maria Breslin, Liverpool Echo, 29th January 2008 |
|
"Our
base.... was the Royal Sportsman Hotel, situated in the heart of Porthmadog.
It was the perfect place to stay, with friendly staff, fantastic food
all sourced locally, great real ale from the local Purple Moose brewery
and, most importantly, we could take the dog. In fact, he received an
equally warm welcome, being greeted with a bowl of water and the offer
of being taken for a walk by a member of staff should we want to leave
him in the hotel – perish the thought!" Gillian Gray-Lancashire Evening Post, 11th January 2008 |
|
"The
meals alone would make the drive north to the Royal Sportsman worth
while…a first class menu served by the friendliest staff you'll
meet anywhere" |
|
"It
is the Royal Sportsman which seems to get everyone's nod of approval
offering comfortable rooms and wonderful Welsh cuisine ( with a taste
of France and Italy) and is possibly the best place to stay in the area.."
Liz Rowley-Midlands Sentinel, October 2007 |
|
"Back
at the hotel, we settled down for another superb meal".."
We were pleased with our nicely decorated comfortable room, providing
everything we needed…We began the day with yet more delicious
food-a hearty Welsh cooked Breakfast.." Suzanne Roberts, Shropshire Star, October 2007 |
|
"Family
friendly takes on a whole new meaning.The food is a real feature.." Bethan Lloyd, Western Mail in August 2007 |

The
Royal Sportsman is a family owned and managed hotel with a strong Mediterranean
culture that influences how we look after our customers, in an informal
yet professional environment. It is a very personal approach where we
try to exceed expectations and go the extra mile for customers to ensure
that they enjoy their stay here.
|
|
Customers regularly describe the family atmosphere
as being "home from home" combining comfort, charm, warmth
and Welsh hospitality. |
|
Family
friendly, from babies to teenagers, to stay in and also eat, you can
even include family pets in your stay. It is managed by an exceptionally
friendly team who enjoy meeting and looking after customers, hopefully
exceeding their expectations.
The hotel has also developed its own distinctive style of cooking using only fresh local Welsh ingredients. Imaginative food for both adults and children, well cooked and presented, is another important part of our culture |
