Room is spacious. Toilet is spacious with bathtub. The food was great. Noisy though. We can hear the conversation of people going to their rooms. The floor is noisy when walking.

All good. A little pricey at £168 for one night, but to be honest, it was a bank holiday weekend. Good location, really good food, friendly staff and clean. Old building, as to be expected, so you could hear all the creaks, bangs and TVs from the other rooms. Dog friendly which was perfect for us. Would stay again

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room was filthy tired and many items broken. No toilet roll in the room. Hotel kitchen shut just before i arrived. There was no opportunity for any food. Sorry, kitchen is shut. Breakfast didn’t start until 0800 and that was far too late. Staff really could care. There is absolutely nothing in the local area as the hotel is very very remote. Bathroom had bare wires hanging out the wall, an array of cobwebs with some lovely spiders in the room. Shower water pressure was good and the bed was comfortable. However the noise of the floor boards moving when people walked along the corridor outside the room was ridiculously loud. Booked in for two nights but left after just one. I opted to drive the 300 miles home rather than stay there again.

Hotel is in a good location, ample parking. It's a stately building fairly well maintained, though the elevator access on floor 1 is hindered by the carpeting that restricts the door from opening. Yes you have to manually open the door to access the 50 + year old elevator and make sure it doesnt swallow any body part when the door closes, very cool. The food in the attached restaurant/ pub was good, though the service was hindered by only 1 person doing everything, hotel check in and restaurant duties.

The room was spotless, the bed was so comfortable and was a king size instead of a double. The staff were so friendly and amenable, the only downside was if you want a lie in and you’ve ordered breakfast you won’t get one as breakfast is served between 7.30am till 8.30am also towels not big enough for a shower or bath

A little Welsh Gem

Clean room with ensuite facilities. Friendly staff at hotel. Good choice for breakfast (full Welsh+options). Excelent meals otherwise - good potions of all meals taken which were piping hot and freshly made - impressed! A bit out of the way but worth the effort.

My husband and I stayed here for a last-minute trip and were not disappointed. The hotel is charming - it's an older building with an old-world feel to it. The staff were incredibly warm and helpful and the location cannot be rivaled. We definitely have plans to return the next time we're in the UK.

Lovely menu - particularly loved the Goat curry and my son wolfed down the ribs. Friendly staff. Only gripe would be that the showers were mounted way too low. I could only wash my hair by kneeling in the bath.
