The staff really make this hotel — they’re fantastic! Always attentive, checking that everything is okay and asking if you need anything. The hotel is currently undergoing some improvements, but that didn’t spoil our stay at all. Our room was fantastic, everything was very clean, and we’ll definitely be back. The breakfast was really nice and tasty I would recommend the Welsh Breakfast

Great location and very pleasant room. Staff very helpful. Breakfast service was slow, but great food. No lift when we stayed as it was being replaced, so 4 floors to climb, but staff carried luggage. Good value for money.

Still in the middle of a major refurbishment but a nice nights stay - bed whilst softer than I am used to was surprisingly comfortable. Bathroom is basic - would suggest changing whatever is used to clean this area as it’s’scent’ just reminded me of public loos. Will probably come back once remake finished…
