Fantastic location. A bit pricey but well worth it. Lovely friendly helpful staff. Excellent food and service. Electric heaters in the bedrooms are a challenge but ok once you work it out and essential because of huge gaps in the windows with freezing drafts being on top of the valley. Windows need an urgent refurb. Large car park that looks rough but is safe in this area. Short walk to stunning Devils Bridge falls and steam railway to Aberystwyth with stunning Rheidol Valley. Highly recommended for a short trip. Fab.

Stunning Place, everything 5*
We stayed for one night over NYE and had the most amazing time- had never been here before and it was so lovely! Staff were great and attended to everything we needed. Food was great quality and nice selection. Our room was amazing, the comfiest bed! And beautiful views out our window. Could not fault anything and would absolutely recommend.

Breathtaking stay!
Absolutely delighted with my stay at this beautiful hotel nestled in a stunning location. The surroundings were breathtaking, offering a tranquil escape. The attention to detail in the hotel's design and decor added to the overall charm. The culinary experience exceeded expectations; the food was not only delicious but also presented with artistic flair. The staff's hospitality was outstanding – warm, attentive, and always ready to assist. Their local knowledge and recommendations enhanced my exploration of the area. The seamless service truly contributed to a memorable and relaxing stay.

Best: The staff and service! Wide variety of food mostly very well done. Unique boutique hotel w/15 rooms. Nothing else comes close in the area. Cons: No lift (elevator) but that comes with a refurbished building this old. Renovations are continuing. Story: We decided to tour Wales by train so we didn’t have a car. Took the Rheidol steam train out from Aberystwyth which is a day/trip tourist train not normally used for regular commuting. They do have secured luggage storage for the trip though. Getting to the Hafod Hotel was little bit of a chore do to us having four bags.(some gravel and downhill). Packing small would be an advantage. Stayed three nights. The Devil’s Bridge area is beautiful with waterfalls being the highlight. Trekking through the two separate paths is not for the lighthearted….a bit of a workout but very rewarding! Talked to the staff about getting back up to the Rheidol station and one of them actually gave us and or bags a ride back up! Above and beyond! We gave him a separate tip. Overall the staff was excellent in attitude and service!

Love this hotel, we've visited for years for food or drinks so was looking forward to spending my birthday here, especially following the lovely refurbishment. We miss the quirky old toilets but everything has been thought of for comfort. Service has been excellent and very friendly, and the food is lovely. Will definitely stay here again.

Just perfect!
We arrived late due to traffic but were met with immediate warmth (staff and food!). We were really well looked after throughout, staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel itself has been beautifully renovated. It was lovely to see so many original features preserved, and enhanced. Our room was especially nice, the bed was very comfortable. Everything we needed for a shortbread was provided. The food was great, matched the quality of the hotel itself. We were throughly impressed and enjoyed a really great stay.

Lovely little hotel and great food
Service good in restaurant and food excellent One issue that was a problem was lack of experienced reliable staff available Saturday PM 2pm. On arrival I asked for a bottle of prosecco in room which I had to remind the very young staff about 3 times. Also no coat hangers in room and had to ask 3 times. Eventually a manager got hold of my requests and sorted them but it was hard work

We stayed as my daughter was graduating in Aberystwyth University. We ate outside in the evening, enjoyed it so much we came back for lunch the following day. I have to congratulate you for employing the most amazing host. He asked me how our stay was and when we came back for lunch he asked me how the graduation went. It’s the little things that go a long way. Hotel room was amazing, clean and comfortable. Thankyou for letting us stay at your hotel.
