Very friendly staff. We called ahead to let them know we would be arriving late, and as the kitchen would already be closed, they took our orders and managed to let us have dinner anyway, which was great as the food was delicious!

,the location for visiting the world heritage centre of Blaenavon was good. The inn offered excellent meals. We were traveling without a car which made it a bit complicated to visit other sites. We did manage to visit Raglan Castle in Abervageny.

Nice hotel. Decent size room, good shower and very good breakfast. There is a restaurant and we enjoyed a nice meal. The staff were very helpful and were nice people. The town of Blaenavon is interesting and definitely worth a visit.

We had a lovely stay here in the family suite on the top floor. The ceilings are low for those that are tall. However, it worked out well for us. The rooms were clean. The included breakfast was delicious and the restaurant for dinner was excellent as well.
