"Located centrally in the town with excellent parking. Nice relaxed atmosphere. Was nice to sit outside under the beautiful wisteria and enjoy a drink in the evening sun. Brasserie food was excellent. Breakfast was really nice also. A great base for exploring."

The Bear Hotel, Crickhowell

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely old former coaching inn. We were upgraded and enjoyed a beautiful spacious room with old stone fireplace, leather armchairs and half tester bed. We stayed during very hot weather and a small portable air conditioning unit would have made the room more comfortable. There was a very small fan but it was totally ineffective and the bedroom window would not open, although the bathroom one did. We ate dinner in the restaurant with an extensive menu and very tasty food (the pannacotta and excellent service. Breakfast was good, service not quite as attentive."

Three Cocks Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Really lovely coaching inn that has been refurbished beautifully"
