Valentines get away

We had a lovely one night stay at the Kings Head. As we travelled down we unfortunately had a very late check in but the team were super friendly and gave us a warm welcome on arrival. It’s in a great location for exploring and the cooked breakfast was delicious.

Lively and friendly with good food and drink

one night stay to break up the retrurn from Somerset. The pub is lively and friendly, the food and service were both top notch and the room was almost like new in condition so was very pleasant. The only downside was noisy neighbours who kicked off at 02.00 which wasnt good for a decent sleep but thats not the fault of the hotel just inconsiderate fellow guests. Would recommend the Kings Head which is also very well located within Usk.

The accommodation was spotlessly clean. Rooms were well-appointed with fabulous bathroom and quality toiletries. Tea pigs tea and Tan y Castell Welshcakes were a cut above, as well as Ty Nant bottled water. The mattress and pillows were lovely quality. Rooms had minimalist furniture creating uncluttered calming space. The full Welsh breakfast was impressive, cooked to order. Unlimited juices, cereal and toast. Friendly, efficient staff. Car parking onsite. A lovely stay. Will recommend to friends and family

Great hotel and pub

We stayed at the Kings Head, Usk for one night on Valentines Day. We were checked in by Adam (I think) upon arrival and he was very welcoming. We mentioned that we hadn't booked a table for dinner but were informed it wouldn't be a problem. The room was very nice - modern and comfortable. The bathroom and shower were gorgeous. Dinner was fantastic, the food delicious and the service very good. Breakfast in the morning was amazing with fantastic coffee! We'll certainly be back!
