The hotel had clean and comfortable rooms spread over 2 levels, but the noise from late-night revellers made it challenging to relax. The service was friendly and helpful, though sometimes seemed distracted. The location was convenient, with picturesque surroundings, and the dining experience offered a delicious breakfast. However, the lack of seating for residents was a drawback.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, although a bit tired, offered views of Brecon and the hills. The service was outstanding, with staff going above and beyond to make our stay memorable. The location was excellent for exploring Brecon, but the dining experience left something to be desired. Overall, a reasonable value for money stay with some room for improvement.

7.4/10

Staying at the hotel provided a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms offered stunning views but could benefit from some updates. The spacious bathroom met expectations for the price paid for two rooms. Room rate was slightly on the higher side, starting at £200+ for one-night stay for two rooms.

Rooms

The rooms were situated above the restaurant patio area with amazing views; however, they could use some updating. The good size bathrooms were what I would expect for the price paid.

The hotel's location was excellent, close to town and good walks, within a 5-minute walk to the center of Brecon with its range of shops. It also had the added charm of being in the area of an original castle, serving as a unique backdrop for this stay.

Dining

The dining experience at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The hot servery service served delicious local bacon, but there were some updates required in certain rooms. The provided breakfast was described as 'continental', ending promptly at 10:00, not specifically outlined in the booking.

Facilities

The hotel offered a range of facilities, including freshly baked bread, but some areas, like mold in certain rooms, were in need of maintenance.
