Great central location
Stayed here as a family. We were on a biking trip in the local area. Location was great and in the centre of town. The rooms were clean and well equipped with a nice shower and bathroom. We are in the pub on the evening. The food was fine, decent pub grub.

We loved the room, it was really comfortable and clean and having the bar for food was really welcome and the food was lovely. The bar was very busy and it was hot so we weren't sure if the staff had just had a long day but the welcome was a bit stiff and the staff didn't seem bothered whether we were there or not as guests. The location was great for where we were going and the room was top notch, so we could forgive that. It was a brilliant location though and a great base for most of mid Wales.

1 night stay
Clean, well presented room - newly refurbished. Very nice bathroom, good shower. Bedroom - Need for a fan - free standing / ceiling to eliminate need to open window and thus cut road noise and church bells, every hr throughout the night!

Middle of town setting
Warm reception when booking in at bar. Stairs were very wide up to rooms which was great for carrying up bags etc. The room was a little small and lacking in hanging space (although we did book small double). Bathroom was very clean and had been recently modernised. Food at the pub was very good with high hiegeane rating for kitchen. Very pleasant stay and would book again.

Room #2 is a fire escape room & is definately NOT a nearly £100 a night room..very small, tatty furniture and the mattress was like sleeping on the floor..we have stayed in far more superior rooms in the past for half the price. Can't review the food as it was way too expensive for us.

2 night break
hotel is tired in areas but looks like its getting a bit of an update, our room had a very sloping floor and one of the mattresses on the bed had a big dip in it. However for the price we paid and including breakfast which was really good and evening meals were very large portions and good value for money we were happy enough

4/10 Fair

I had read many reviews about this hotel before booking, all positive and calling the place “excellent”. After my stay I found myself wondering if I’d stayed in the same place! It was at best mediocre and certainly does not live up to its 3star rating. We had booked for two nights but as we had made two separate bookings the venue couldn’t accommodate us in the same room so we had to leave at 10.30 to return to check back in at 14.00. Both rooms had their own set of problems. First room was damp and smelled. The fire door would not shut without force and the window would not open. Second room was in better condition but the fire escape route was via the room, the fire door had an inch gap at the bottom so most certainly would not adhere to the regulatory 30mins required. The toilet seat was not fixed, the kettle was too large to fill and no bedside tables or lights. The hotel/bar was a dingy place that smelled and had clutter everywhere, the staff gave contradictory information on check in leaving us a little confused. I will not be rushing back

Generally pretty good. Ample parking. Food available all day. Locals are friendly. Beer was nice. We had 2 different rooms and one had been refurbished nicely and the other was a bit old. Mostly quiet but during bar hours there was a noise that I can only guess had something to do with extractor fans. But once food service finished it stopped so shouldn't affect sleep. We had an issue with pricing through Expedia, no fault of the hotel, yet they compensated us with breakfast, so grateful for the kindness.

It's really a pub with a few rooms. In a good central location with free parking. Room was a bit dated but comfortable. Excellent breakfast.
