The hotel had modern rooms with stunning boutique style bathrooms where we stayed, offering instant hot water, making our stay very comfortable for the kids. The service was exceptional with attentive housekeeping and a lovely welcome drink. The location was perfect for exploring activities in-and-around the Brecon Beacons, with a warm family atmosphere at the nearby packed restaurants and pubs serving delicious food. The dining experience included tasty Thai dishes, and the facilities were top-notch, adding great value to our stay.

The hotel has modern rooms with contemporary furnishings and excellent bathrooms, but it overlooks two derelict shops instead of a mountain view. The service is good, especially with a welcome drink, but the restaurant on Sunday was fully booked. The location, although packed with a real family atmosphere, was small and disappointing. The dining experience included snacks, and the facilities were decent.

The hotel had stunning boutique style bathrooms and beautiful bed & shower in the rooms, with instant hot water. The service was top-notch with excellent housekeeping and a lovely welcome drink. Its location in the centre of Blaenavon was perfect for exploring the black mountains and enjoying wonderful hiking trails. The dining experience, with included seasonal dishes, was exceptional. However, the price for the value could be improved a bit, and the facilities were average.
