Terrible service
We told them our arrival time prior to them accepting, we then arrived at said time after they accepted and saod we could come, to no one there and the doors locked, we then had to sleep in our car and still haven’t had our money back
5.0 / 10.0
Fulfilled a need to enable me to get to work in inclement conditions
Prompt service on arrival, handy location for work the following morning, open at this time of year enabling me to stay the night before work as roads likely impassable the following morning. Son able to find out on Facebook that it was hoped to have staffing to enable opening later that evening.
Due to snowy weather entire building closed on arrival, unheated bedroom..

The Heights is a perfect place to stay for walking in the hills. Next time I will bring blankets!!
Aran was amazing. We arrived very late, he was very helpful
The beds were very lumpy and the room was very cold
1.0 / 10.0
Very disappointing
The bunkhouse room had an toilet and shower.
I have allowed a few days to pass before reflecting on my experience staying at The Heights. I can suggest though that when contrasted with other hostels and bunkhouses that I have stayed in throughout Britain, the Outer Hebrides and Europe, The Heights is the most disappointing equivalent accommodation I have ever used. It was appalling. I was very disappointed. Reasons listed below and photos available: -Very neglected furnishings in the room and bathroom. -Not vacuumed and very evidently requiring it. -Tepid radiator and cold room, despite being told the heating was on. -A single, loose electrical socket. -Inadequate shower curtain for the shower, which was a trip hazard. -Shower hot and cold taps the wrong way round. I think these inadequacies would have been more tolerable 30 years ago, but not in 2025. I got the lasting impression that The Heights has contempt for its customers.  I will not recommend it to others in the hiking fraternity. One to avoid.

If you're happy with a slightly grotty bunkhouse, it's a good base for walking
You cannot fault the location of The Heights if you want to go walking in Eryri National Park. It is fit for purpose, I suppose, as a bunk house when you just want to get up and start walking. The food and drink downstairs is decent and reasonably priced. Staff are friendly and helpful.
The rooms are beyond tired. They are pretty dirty and have mould (showers in particular). One of the showers worked and the other didn't. The toilet was useable but the basin was cracked. The mattresses are incredibly cheap and collapse almost to nothing under the weight of a grown man. Unsure how often they wash the sheets on the mattresses, but make sure you have your own sleeping bag and pillow (and towel). The radiators did not come on at all during our stay. Even though it's mid-November. The noise from the bar at night was not an issue (closes at 11pm), but didn't really appreciate the 6:30am noise (staff moving furniture I think). No breakfast served during our stay (should have told us that in advance). Fit for purpose as a cheap bunkhouse, but I wouldn't in a million years take my wife (or childre) to this place.

The staff are great but the building could do with so
The staff here were really friendly
The bunkhouse can do with a good upgrade all over as it’s very tired. It was as clean as it’s going to get with in a rundown environment . It c your looking for a place one step up from a cardboard box this is your place.
3.0 / 10.0
Great location but very poor upkeep
It is in an ideal place in Llanberis The staff are fab
It was freezing The window didn't shut properly so there was a draft all night and the radiator didn't work. The mattresses are well passed any sell by date I could tell you how many springs mine had because each one was digging into me all night long
