Friendly Hotel in Llandovery.

I was just passing through on business, so did not have much time to check out the area. The Hotel was looking a bit tired & could do with freshening up a little. I was given room 18 which was tiny with the smallest bath/shower combo I have ever seen! The service & food are good here & the staff are really friendly.I could not use the hotel car park as it was full, however you can park nearby on the road overnight from 5.00pm until 9.00am.

Nice pub with friendly staff.

Nice pub with very friendly staff. Room was comfortable with tv and tea making. En-suite had a good shower. A little tired perhaps in decor but clean. We stayed 3 nights and didn’t see much evidence of daily tidying or cleaning of our room other than bin emptying and replacement of bottled water. We are tidy people so didn’t really bother us. Breakfast was ok but little choice if you didn’t fancy a full cooked breakfast or various elements of it. We were out all day motorcycling around the fabulous roads nearby and it was a pleasant enough place to return to each evening.

Very welcoming traditional Hotel.

Really pleased we stayed there as it had everything - panelling,, stone, kind and caring staff and good food. We know it is due for refurbishment which would be good as our room was rather sparse without any pictures up and only a net curtain at the bathroom window which could be overlooked. The pillows were very uncomfortable, but the room was really clean and well maintained overall and we would like to visit again please. Thank you to the establishment to the staff.

Good but avoid room 12

Lovely staff who will show you to your room on checking-in and offer excellent, friendly service in the bar/restaurant and at breakfast. Food was excellent - both dinner and breakfast. Free parking at the rear of the pub. Only complaint was that room 12 is right above the bar/restaurant toilets and your are kept awake by the hand dryers being switched on and off. Could also do with softer pillows. That being said, I would stay again.

could have been so much better

first room (24) was lovely but unfortunately the tv was broken and as the spare rooms TV's were wall mounted all I could do was change rooms. 2nd room (21) window lock and sash broken so had to make do and jam a teaspoon into the side to hold the window in place to reduce street noise and keep some of the wind out. even with small oil radiator on all night the room remained unpleasantly cold. Breakfast was a disaster with everything covered in burnt bits - unacceptable and inedible.

Value for money was great. The staff were very welcoming and all were polite and friendly. Food was excellent (Evening meal/Breakfast) The sausages were so nice we popped around the corner to the local butchers and bought some :) Central to the town and very old but kept to a good standard throughout. The local beer (Crwr) is a must for those who prefer good beer. Would I stay there again? Absolutely.

Well Enjoyable Stay

Really enjoyed our one night stay. It is a lovely old traditional pub/hotel the staff were friendly, the room was big and clean with fresh towels laid out on the bed. Lots of channels on the tv if thats your thing. The evening meal we had in the pub was very good, it was pub food and very enjoyable. The breakfast was cooked to order and everything was nice. Would definately stay there again.

A Curate's Egg.

I've stayed here before & it really is a Curate's Egg of a hotel. On one hand, it really is very good value for money - the rooms are spacious, the bar is very welcoming & the food is great - either Bar or Restaurant. Excellent. On the other hand, the room is dark & needs better lighting if working on one's laptop in the evening & the Wi-Fi is patchy in it's reception. The staff are very friendly & nothing is too much trouble.

Excellent value

Nice hotel, but lacking a bit of TLC. For instance in the bathroom there was a lot of mould on the tiles around the shower and the window was masked out with a bath mat drawing pinned to the window frame and it looked like it had been there a long time. Also, and I hesitate to say this because a lot of place are over the top, the room was a bit sparse, not even a picture on the walls. Overall though, a nice place and excellent value. Great location on the middle of town and fee parking round the back. Breakfast was good.

Amazing customer service

The staff were great and so accommodating. We incorrectly booked our reservation, however the staff were able to provide us with a room, last minute, which they cleaned perfectly and made up very quickly. The evening meal and breakfast were superb. The customer service was honestly the best I've encountered. Really lovely b&b and great value for money.

well worth a visit.

The hotel is a listed building so there is no lift, but there are only three floors. Ground is bar & restaurant, and two floors of rooms. The room was a pleasant surprise large and comfortable. The food was excellent and a reasonable price. I will definitely stay there again.

Disappointing

The staff were pleasant but the rooms were accessed via a fire escape, and the whole place inside and out was run-down and shabby.
