I had high hopes for the Hafod, but unfortunately, my experience fell short of expectations. What Went Wrong: Firstly - we booked a superior room which we expected to be of fairs size and a couple of days before check in I contacted the property to ask if we could be allocated a room with a bath tube they said they could accommodate this however when we checked in we were given a small box like room and the bathroom was very small and narrow to navigate. I couldn’t justify the money we spent. Secondly, the room had no air conditioning which is understandable but the room was unbearably hot even with the windows and shutter open, Lastly - we had night hopes for the bar and restaurant however we were left very disappointed there was no atmosphere and a very cold welcoming. When asked what time the bar was closing we were told 9:30. However at 10:00 when looking for a staff member we were told that all the staff are in the bar area having a drink which they were and we were made to feel intimidated to walk in as they had shut the door around them. Food was very disappointing the New York strip was inedible. Final Thoughts: I’m disappointed and hope this feedback helps others make an informed decision. I also hope the company considers making improvements to avoid similar issues in the future. Considering the money we spent on the room and food.

Quirky and fab. Bit rough round the edges and needs a thorough clean! Our carpet was very stained and the bathroom had black mould. Lovely and super-young staff, great food, noisy kitchen - loud music and singing which was slightly weird. Overall a good experience.

Lovely traditional hotel in s stunning location

Started off as a one night stay but enjoyed it very much and extended it another night. Lovely place in a fantastic and beautiful location. food was very good, especially on a Sunday when they do a fantastic roast dinner it’s a must if you get a chance. The service isn’t the fastest but have patience it’s worth it and I wasn’t in no rush.
