The property has great potential, but lacks the finer details. The rooms are new and feel fresh, but some small adjustments are needed—for example, no glasses in the bathroom, no hook for the towel anywhere. The website also needs updating. In this day and age, it's just not good enough. Contacted the property the day prior to arrival, never got a response. Breakfast was delicious! Like I said, it has great potential to be a very good place to stay.

Perfect

We spent 4 nights at the Kings Head and it was a perfect place to stay. The newly renovated bedrooms and bathrooms were pristine and very roomy, and the breakfasts were delicious, especially the local sausages. Stepping into the bar was like going through a time portal into the 1600's: there was a cozy fire burning, low beamed ceilings, and pewter tankards hanging from hooks. The fresh local fish on the daily special's menu was superb. But best of all was the attentive, friendly service from everyone who worked there. I would go back to Usk just to stay there again.

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.

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!
