Friendly staff. Quiet little town and the hotel is right in the centre. Room was good. Food in the restaurant is first class - lovely Full English breakfast and delicious Indian/Nepalese food in the evening. I'll definitely go again.

Property was well-located and suitable but for the price, you're better off at the higher-starred properties nearby. Does not seem like good value for the area - the check-in happens at a pub and the rooms are quite basic.

The hotel is lumped in with the bar and the restaurant in terms of staffing. It feels like an afterthought rather than really looking after guests. Not enough staff. Not really knowledgeable when the hot water didn’t work when I wanted a shower in the morning. They had turned the water off so they could only offer a shower after breakfast when it had heated up. Room was ok. Would have liked a bath but only a shower. Disappointing stay, not good value at all.

Choose as a last resort!

I emailed the Hotel before writing this review, but have not received a reply back. So, here goes….for £94 per night B&B in high season, I did expect that the room would be basic. What I also expected was that the room would be clean. I unlocked the door to an unwelcoming room, drab and in need of decoration. I was attending a wedding so needed a room as a base. I got back to the room quite late, and just needed to get into bed. Firstly, I couldn’t close the sash window, which could do with a good clean. I closed the curtains holding the bottom of the fabric because they were grimey. All of my bags went onto the desk because I felt the carpet and chair could also do with a good clean. When I pulled back the bottom sheet, the mattress protector was horribly stained that I slept, cold and miserable, on the top of the quilt. The plug was jammed in the sink. I tried to push it up from underneath but it wouldn’t budge. It was also cracked. The toilet was clean and sanitised but I didn’t want to use the shower which was mouldy in places. Everything could do with a deep clean and cheering up. The staff that I encountered were pleasant. I couldn’t face breakfast there so I checked out and ate elsewhere. If anyone asked me today if I would recommend The Kings Head Hotel, I certainly wouldn’t.

WHY SO EXPENSIVE?!?!?

90 quid for a narrow single bed and a tiny shower room in a cupboard on a high street in South Wales is pushing it if you ask me. I booked it out of desperation but l have stayed in many way way nicer places on many occasions for a little over half that price. Why so expensive?!?!
