My partner’s mother got married here last week and what an amazing experience it was. Lisa, the wedding coordinator, was particularly thoughtful, well organised and friendly. She clearly had loads of excellent experience but made this wedding feel incredibly special. The staff in general were bubbly and supportive. The venue and scenery are absolutely gorgeous. Couldn’t have been a better event. Highly recommend.
Splendid experience. We felt like a royalty visiting this place. You get treated so respectfully.
The location and history of Plas Maenen is incredible. Fun fact: the queen stored her jewels in the basement of this house behind a big safe door during the second world war.
The rooms are lovely. We slept very well.
But the breakfast is something else. As you can see on the picture it has been the BEST (Welsh) breakfast I have had. Everything is superb quality and cooked by a professional.
In conclusion:
Great location + view
Room is lovely
Breakfast is 10/10
Service is prestigious
I'll be coming back.
We got married here on the 7th of October. It was a fantastic day supported by Lisa and Daryl the wedding planners and coordinators. They took all the worries and problems away making sure everything went well and on time. Beautiful venue.
Small independent hotel in the heart of the Conwy Valley with gorgeous views from the terrace and veranda restaurant.
Friendly, helpful and welcoming hosts Amanda & Richard. Extremely well organised and felt entirely comfortable with what was in place for Covid. Great food, comfortable and clean rooms, those at the front ( the suites ) having lovely views across the valley. A very pleasant and enjoyable stay, breakfast on the terrace, dinner on the veranda. Look forward to returning.
We stayed for three nights in August as a base for visiting three of Edward I's castles in North Wales. The location is beautiful, overlooking the Conwy valley, just a few miles south of Conwy and a few miles north of Betws-y-Coed, so is ideal for visiting Conwy, Beaumaris and Caernarfan castles as well as the mountains of Snowdonia. The hotel has been beautifully refurbished and decorated, and offers very comfortable and peaceful accommodation. The proprietor and staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Dinner and breakfast were excellent. Other reviewers have mentioned the interesting history of the mansion and the disastrous attempts to develop hydro-electricity in Dolgarrog, just across the valley.
We thoroughly recommend it.
We attended a family wedding at Plas Maenan.
Would recommend to any couple looking for a truly stunning venue.
Add to that the impeccable service we received and how wonderful, Lisa, the manager was and I would say this is the perfect place to get married.
Lovely vegan afternoon tea in beautiful surroundings. The owner Jane can not do enough to help. My daughter and her fiance have booked their wedding here and we were able to have a good look round. Guest rooms are stunning , all individually decorated.
Came here to see Vampires Rock. A nice modern theatre with good views of the stage from the stalls. The bar sells beer from the local (Dhillons) brewery, so that's nice.
Toilets are a bit small (unusual for a more modern theatre), resulting in long queues at the men's and women's toilets. But apart from that, a very pleasant experience.
Absolutely beautiful place. Location is perfect. Can not wait to get married here.
We had our Daughters wedding at the venue yesterday 17th September 2023 , absolutely beautiful venue and everyone involved in organising the day was amazing and couldn't do enough for all of us and thanks to Lisa coordinating the day to make it go smoothly , and special thanks to the manager and cheff food was amazing and beutifull rooms and breakfast would highly recommend this venue

Fabulous hotel for a stay, meal or just a drink on the terrace which has a spectacular view across the Conwy valley
Stunning venue in the conwy valley, building dipped in welsh history, perfect setting for intimate events, all staff in house are friendly and helpful
Absolutely stunning wedding venue. GM ( Lisa )was a great help and really friendly while professional and clearly very well informed
Absolutely amazing. I went there for my birthday, and had the most amazing dinner. The decoration is extraordinary, every detail, statues and painting are beautiful, the views are also outstanding. Highly recommend it. Food is high quality !
Thanks for making my 30th Birthday memorable !
Great place for a wedding and really good prices if you are on a budget and especially if you don't mind getting married in the week

This hotel/restaurant is the best I've visited in Wales. I dined there with my parents and we left feeling the experience couldn't be topped.
To begin with, the Edwardian building and grounds are as immaculately manicured as they are beautifully decorated. The scenery is fairly spectacular, and the restaurant/suites (one of which the hostess kindly offered to show me) are cleverly designed to maximise the view.
THE FOOD!!!... It was like something out of a Michelin restaurant without the humongous price tag and tiny portions; beautifully presented and exceptionally delicious.
The greatest triumph of Plas Maenan is its staff though. Jane the owner/hostess couldn't be more polite, accommodating and interesting. She is very knowledgeable about the history of the house, and is very attentive to guests without being overbearing. The chef (who apparently farms many of the ingredients on the grounds) brought the food to the tables personally - again without the ceremony or arrogance you'd expect from such talent in that setting. He was roundly praised by the diners (once we realised who he was!)

We had a great rwo nights at this Edwardian guesthouse. After an absolutely exhausting day catching up with old friends, we were running late for our booking and my husband rang Jane, who we later found was the Proprietor and explained we would arrive until after 6pm. On our arrival Jane was waiting. We were shown to our country-chic room. Wow how elegant it was. A small basket of fruit, cheeses dips and nibbles had been placed in the room with tea/coffee facilities to welcome us.
Our bed was so comfy we both went out like lights and had a great night's sleep.
Breakfast was everything you could wish for. The food was beautifully presented and delicious.
The history behind the house is amazing and very interesting. What we noticed was Jane is so proud of it and strives to keep it alive.
Unfortunately as we are from Australia and this is the trip of a lifetime and we do not think we will be passing by again , but we promised 100% we will recommend to our family and friends this beautiful Hotel.
Fantastic staff,a friendly atmosphere and sensible COVID 19 precautions in place.
Thanks Jane your a little gem.
Absolutely stunning place to stay. Set in fantastic mountain views. Would like to wish Jane and all the staff a huge thank you for making us feel at home.
The hotel is spottlesly clean. Amazing food
Would love stay there again and recommend it.
Amazing.... they will do anything to make sure your wedding is perfect. Thank you so so much Team Plas Maenan xxx
