    great food
    road noise
    small room

    It was a pleasant stay. The staff were welcoming and made sure we felt comfortable, especially when we arrived close to closing time for dinner. The food was beautifully cooked, and the room was cozy, providing a good night’s sleep. Though there was some noise from the road that made it harder to sleep at times, the accommodations were clean and well-presented, which I appreciated.

    afternoon tea
    relaxing garden
    quiet atmosphere

    We had a lovely stay with delicious breakfast and a fantastic afternoon tea that really hit the spot. The garden area and sun terrace were perfect for relaxing after a busy day. Just a heads-up, it was a bit quiet during our visit, so consider heading out for dinner to feel more buzz! 😊

    comfy beds
    thoughtful amenities
    cleanliness issues
    spotty bathroom

    The room was cozy and well-kept, with everything feeling nice and warm. Beds were comfy, and we appreciated the little touches like a hairdryer and a fan. The bathroom was decent, but the cleanliness was a bit off in spots. it was a pretty nice place to crash after a long day.

    local delicacies
    decent variety
    old room
    poor kettle

    The evening meal was a treat, especially the local delicacies! Breakfast was solid too, offering a decent variety to kick-start the day.

    You can tell this hotel is quite old. Our room desperately needed a coat of paint and the kettle was best left untouched. The check-in vibes felt a bit off, but checkout was much nicer!

    great welcome from the staff, super comfy room, enjoyed the local food in the restaurant. the atmosphere was nice and relaxing, made us feel like home. really loved the garden area for chilling out!

    the chicken was a bit dry and tough, and the check-in was kinda confusing too.

    dated room
    confusing check-in

    I enjoyed the cozy atmosphere and the lovely garden view from my room. The staff greeted me warmly upon arrival and stayed helpful throughout my visit. I had delicious food at dinner, especially the sticky toffee pudding, which was a highlight. The breakfast options were varied, but I noticed the lack of fresh juices, sticking to cartons instead. The accommodation was clean and well-maintained, but my room felt a bit dated and could use some fresh paint. The check-in process seemed a bit confusing, which set a slightly off tone for the stay.

    cozy meal
    stunning garden
    minor noise

    Had a lovely stay, enjoying a cozy meal by the fireplace and the stunning garden views right outside our room. The sun terrace and leisure room were perfect spots to unwind after a busy day. Just a minor issue with some noise from the old building, but it didn’t take away from the great time we had! 😊

    comfy bed

    Just a suitable option for resting in Hay-On-Wye with great value-to-price ratio. The comfy bed made for good sleep despite some noise. Check for breakfast options nearby instead of dining in at the hotel.

    cozy atmosphere

    A Pleasant Stay with Room for Improvement

    We had a lovely dinner with a delicious six-course tasting menu, but the room, while cozy, could use some updates. The creaky floors added a charming but noisy element to our stay. For families, be mindful of the steep staircase for room access.
