Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is centrally located within the village, making it convenient for exploring the surrounding area. The rooms are clean and decent, although some may find them a bit tired. The service is exceptionally friendly and accommodating, with staff going above and beyond to assist guests. The dining experience is satisfying, setting you up nicely for a day of exploring. Overall, a great value for money stay with a few minor room issues.
The hotel is situated right in the center of the village, providing easy access to the long-stay car park, although the tired appearance detracts from its charm. The dining options are appetizing, but the lack of self-service may not suit everyone. Expect enthusiastic and accommodating service, ideal for pet owners, though the noisy nights from the pub below may affect your stay.
The hotel is right at the heart of the village, a bit tired-looking but fantastic for families, with wonderfully warm downstairs bar and eating area. The rooms offer a lovely view of the historical bridge and Llugwy River, though some were not well-maintained and had lingering smoke smells. The staff were new and very friendly, always ready to help, but they seemed busy with outdoor work. The dining experience was average, with some nice local flavors but room for improvement.
