Top Elan Valley Reservoirs Hotel Reviews

The Mount Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This was my third time at The Mount Inn, as always a great place to stay. Very friendly staff and great food and accommodation. Ideally located to reach anywhere in Wales with fabulous countryside only minutes away."

Neuadd Arms Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely old Victorian hotel with plenty of character. The room was very spacious, and having a bath to relax in after a long day was perfect. The staff were very friendly, and the pub had a lively atmosphere, serving food and offering a great choice of drinks. The breakfast was also lovely. A very enjoyable stay."

Hedgehogs View - a hobbit hut that sleeps 6 guests in 3 bedrooms

10/10 Excellent

"What an amazing gem of a place to find. We had the most amazing stay. From start to finish customer service and communication was great. Its worth noting customer service is not around on the weekend. Not an issue to us, we were after some wood for a fire but the local hardware shop in Rhayader town sorted us out. Gorgeous little place to visit. If you stay, you must do the reservoir and dam walk, absolutely stunning. Couldn't fault the accommodation at all and the highland cows were so cute!!"

The Lion Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great Hotel, in a good position in Builth Wells with parking. Staff were all brilliant and both breakfast and evening meals were excellent. Would definitely stay there again."

Ty Morgans

10/10 Excellent

"Room was excellant. Unfortunately i did not have breakfast as i had to leave before they started. I would go back again"

The Hafod Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I absolutely loved this hotel. The only thing was having to walk from their car park to the hotel which wasn’t very well signed but in all fairness was I could have read about this before checking in. Staff were amazing and so very friendly. They were happy to help and offer advice throughout the stay. Dinner and breakfast was lovely. Cocktails great and overall a beautiful stay - if I could have stayed an extra night I would have done. Our room was up in the rafters and was superb. A twin bedded room with everything you needed. The beds and pillows were lush! The bathroom was fabulous but I didn’t get a chance to use the bath unfortunately! Amazing views of the valley from the hotel and right next door to devils bridge and water falls - stunning location. Thanks so much for the best stay last weekend."

Metropole Hotel and Spa

8/10 Good

"Good comfortable hotel, helpful staff, good restaurant, excellent spa, convenient free parking."

Hampton

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean however it is smaller than we expected but it was worth for money. Free parking available however it gets busy in the evening because the people those who are coming to pub also use the same carpark. The hotel situated in a great location. Aldi and Tesco Extra are few minutes walking distance. Curry house and kebab shops are close too."
