Some rooms have mould/ damp issues.
Location is wonderful. Staff very nice. Bedrooms and mattresses are dated. Food expensive, around £30 for a main but need to order veg as a side for most dishes!
The pool was lovely and warm staff were very friendly

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Room was outdated, in need of refurbishment. Beds uncomfortable. The spa was in a state of dis repair, sharp edged tiles in the pool and hot tub area. Sauna was not working for 1 hour whilst we were there and no staff on hand for help.
Staff were polite.
Food was very good in the restaurant.
Definitely not worth the money that i paid.
Lovely hotel, very comfortable room and bed. Breakfast was great with a good selection. Only downside was the sauna and steam room were not working.Will be back.
Lovely place, ideal location for us with various walkable places and very scenic. Bistro restaurant was excellent with great food choices. Comfortable room and clean!
My partner and I had a fantastic stay here. The room was lovely and very warm and bed very comfortable. Breakfast was really good and very generous. We had a delicious meal in the restaurant one evening. Staff were all brilliant and extremely helpful. The swimming pool and hot tub were really nice, especially after a long hike. We felt it was extremely good value. Many thanks!
Standard room 2 was simple but fine except for bathroom. Just a bath with no shower, had a shower head fitting on taps but nowhere to hang it and no shower curtain either - so simple to put in place. TV was a little small. Staff all lovely and food very good in bar and reasonable bar prices on drinks. Swimming pool fine but hot tub a little cool and some maintenance needed. Saunas dark with lights switched off and no way of customers turning them on. Room 2 comfortable but woken 6.15 by lorry making a delivery and engine running for 10 minutes
Lovely grounds, lovely upstairs suite, excellent breakfast, great pool area, hot tub not as hot as expected. Staff very helpful and friendly. Would stay again. Suggest you indicate in advance if you have mobility issues, as we loved being upstairs but did not know in advance.
Excellent for the price. Full breakfast included. Pool and hot tub included. Free parking. It was very clean but a little worn around the edges and closer to the road than I would have thought but overall I'd definitely come back. Hot tub was great after hiking all day. Area is exceptionally beautiful. We liked the small town of Llandovery if you're looking for a cute place to eat. Staff was lovely. Bar and restaurant on site.
Property was spotlessly clean, great sized room, back of the property which was a necessity due to proximity of main road. Very pleasant gardens. Bar staff were very cheerful and helpful. Evening food was disappointing for the price point.
