Disappointing

Avoid staying here if you can...

The bed was comfy and the room was quiet. Great location within Brecon. The staff at reception were very helpful.

The breakfast was very slow, I ordered scrambled eggs which tasted pretty much only of salt. But after sending it back it was better. Sausage and bacon were dry and overcooked. The staff were generally slow. The bathroom was very old with stains everywhere in the bath and from the ceiling. The shower had so little pressure it was totally useless.

Good location, with some further tweaking the hotel could be great, staff are all trying really hard

The location, friendly staff & lovely food

Felt we paid top price for a room that was in one of the outer buildings so it was smaller compared to other guests we talked to who were in the main building - no view. Not good value for money.

Pleasant

Was good though would be nice if you were staying a few days , rather than being cooped up in just a bedroom

Stayed in one of the little cottages

Needs an update and no windows

Very good

Great but awaiting needed updates.

Fantastic location and room. Staff were extremely helpful and provided a fantastic break over Christmas. The room was well provisioned and it was fascinating to be part of the old castle wall.

While the room was great, the decor and carpets were extremely tired. The bathroom needs similar renovations. There was a sign to say work was going to be done so i was maybe unlucky to visit before that. However, the question is, 'would I go back there?' Answer is yes.

Really nice place to stay hope some of the issues can be addressed in the refurb

Great location, parking available, friendly staff, characterful building, good breakfast

A few issues with room 18, obviously window needs replacing, shower hose leaking, shaver light not working, uneven mattress, some very squeaky floorboards
