This hotel/inn really under sells itself. 100% recommend

Friendly and welcoming hotel run to a high standard. Spacious rooms with a fantastic restaurant and bar on the grounds. Ample parking also. Fantastic value for money compared to other more know brands in the area. I would definitely stay again.

The location felt a tad isolated although it is not a very busy area anyway. Having a vehicle felt like a necessity.

best steak for 100 miles. comfy beds. no breakfast option!

lovely character property. not your traditional dime a dozen premier inn / travelodge etc dinner was AMAZING. up there in my top 3 steak meals I’ve ever had. and I’ve had a lot. homemade peppercorn sauce was the best I’ve had. chips and onions really nice. and the steak was unfortunately not the best cut but the chef had cooked it perfectly and the seasoning was to perfection.

rooms could be a little more modern - but staff mentioned they were in the process of it already. so don’t let this put you off. very spacious. made the mistake of sleeping in the bed next to the radiator as I was cold when I got in. but woke up early hours roasting hot (serves me right) room was perfect temp and I had choice of three beds. no breakfast. at all. I’d be happy to pay for a room service breakfast even if it was toast / cold croissants with jam etc. or a choice of cereal. had to leave earlier than I would have liked just to get food before my meeting.

Thank you very much for your hospitality, it's a pleasure to meet you, and thanks again for the warm welcome! The food in the restaurant is super. The company in the pub in the evenings is always great!

Good value, budget accommodation on the edge of the Brecon Beacons. Friendly, welcoming staff.

Basic but clean and comfortable room. For the price, it was very good value. Nice local pub with a small but very good quality menu selection and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. I was travelling by motorbike and they offered for me to park the bike securely out of the way right next to rooms, which was appreciated. Excellent location for exploring the Brecon Beacons and surrounding areas.

TV didn't have any signal but this wasn't really an issue as I had mobile devices and the 4G signal was good (no wifi available as far as I could tell). Would have been nice to have had tea/coffee/milk replenished during my stay (only 2 nights), but again, not a big issue.

Terrible. I will do my best to avoid using booking.con again as they don’t care what they advertise.

Absolutely terrible experience. We arrived at the Castle at 15:30 (booking confirmation confirmed check in was from 15:00). No one on site except locals helping themselves to beer in an unlocked hotel. The hotels closed and the owner on a stag do we were told! On further inspection the annexe housing the rooms was unlocked with keys hanging in the doors of all the rooms. Clearly a safe and secure place. When some staff did arrive to open the bar for a few hours we were told we could have a room (kind as we had paid in advance) but there would be no bar and no restaurant. In addition the accommodation would be unmanned overnight. When we questioned this as we had booked so we could eat on site we were told we could just drive somewhere. Based on the lack of facilities and concerns over safety we explained we wanted to cancel. The man on site did not have the authority to approve this but we were told this would be approved on the owners return. Surprise surprise thus request has now been denied. I would strongly advise against staying here. It would appear to be managed by people with no idea how to run a hotel.

Everything! Being there we when and other guests arrived to check in, offering the facilities advertised, providing safe and secure accommodation. The list goes on and on.

Huge disappointment.

Nothing

Booked the hotel with pub and restaurant to find it closed on Saturday. The owner was away on his stag-do. Tristan tried to sort things out including booking.com. But they were no help. Sadly no bed, food or drink just a bed it was. False advertisement! The room is okay, don't flush the toilet in the night the pipes will make a huge noise and wake everyone up. Never again!

Welcoming, fantastic food, good pint and a friendly atmosphere with locals at the bar.

Food was out of this world, one of the best places I have eaten at. Very good pint as well.

Couldn’t get the telly to work but that didn’t bother me. Had I have asked it would have been sorted.

Great place to visit and excellent hospitality and food

Small details with the Croome but spoke with manager and owner who explained they had just taken over and had refurbished downstairs which was excellent. Bedrooms were A little tired but would certainly go again. If the bedrooms are upgraded to downstairs level then it will be superb

Very poor

The bedroom was comfy, spacious, with clean linen.

The building itself looks like abandoned from outside. The picure is not even close to reality. The shower was dirty, the head was broken and couldn't adjust it. The wifi was not working, same story with tv. Both nights we could hear people talking in other room quite loudly, with addition to hearing loud bang in pipes whenever they used their loo. Also, whenever someone from upstairs would walk, you could hear loud floor cracking. Staff entered our room when we were out, apparently to check the room due to fire downstairs. Fair enough, but left the door opened with our belengings inside.

The owners should not be taking bookings whilst things are in such a state.

At least bedroom was clean and there was hot water and heat.

Exterior a mess, including full waste skip in drive, overflowing ashtray and cigarette butts at top of entrance stairs, unswept entrance lobby used as smoking area, shabby door with broken cat flap that let cigarette smoke into stairway where our accommodation was. Although no restaurant or bar appeared to be open, loud, drunk male party downstairs first night and disco of sorts with loud music and singing second night that kept us awake. The owners should not be taking bookings with the place in such a sorry state.
