Good value

A mid point stay for us. Low budget hotel perfect for our needs. Nice food friendly staff and good value.
Graham, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very good traditional pub hotel.

Good location for a stay on the Welsh borders - friendly staff - room clean and well-appointed with good ensuite with nice toiletries and super fluffy towels. Dining in pub restaurant was very good, breakfast buffet very good too with selection of cereals, yoghurts, juices and cold cuts with fresh toast and croissants to the table. Close to River Wye and a village shop is within walking distance, as well as a garage with convenience store. There is a pretty beer garden too. Only drawback is location on main road means passing lorry noise may concern some - windows not double-glazed.

Friendly service . Very clean and nicely presented place. Lots to do in the area and staff happy to help with ideas. Nice little touch was a research area with comfortable chairs and leaflets , about the local area, to go through. Beer garden is a great place to relax. Would definitely be happy to return

Samantha, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel room was quite basic and not very well laid out, I thought. Bed was comfortable. Compared to others I stayed in during the same week this was a much lower standard but a very similar price. Staff were really nice.

Friday night stay

Food lovely , staff lovely on the first night, lovely evening.... breakfast no gluten free bread although we were told they did have it on arrival. Rooms lovely.
Bern, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

An enjoyable one night stay, the service and friendliness of the staff was excellent and much appreciated. The only downside for us was the £20/dog/night additional charge which we considered to be highly excessive and would deter us from a future stay.
PJ, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very warm welcome, Room was clean and tidy . I arrived late but had collected the key earlier in the day, which was no problem at all. Breakfast was continental, but plenty of choice

10am check out is poor show

It’s peak season with book festival but still felt very dear for such a small room and the 10am check out time I feel is very poor to claim as reasonable especially on a Saturday mornknf
James, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The Griffin team made a good weekend. Great!

Impromptu weekend get away, walking in the Brecons. Hotel was extremely easy to find good visitors parking area. Checking in was simple and extremely friendly. Shown to the room and facilities. Booked for a event meal prior. Really good to see a small bar and restaurant buzzing! Great simple food done well! Recommend the Griffin for a weekend break.
Paul, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Helpful, friendly attentive staff, food first rate, the only negative, room allocated to us was above the boiler room & next to the utility room, which for us would have been too hot even in average weather conditions, the bed was threequarters & against a wall, making it cramoed., other rooms looked better appointed.
