The hotel exuded a perfect blend of modern luxury and historical charm. The rooms were furnished just right, boasting an incredibly modern en suite bathroom that was meticulously cleaned daily. The jacuzzi bath added a touch of indulgence, perfectly complementing the character of the building's architecture. However, the restaurant and service could use some improvement.

I was delighted with my stay at the hotel. The rooms with Jacuzzi bath were furnished just right, offering a fantastic view in the middle of town. The modern en suite bathroom was cleaned daily, and I enjoyed the views across the sweeping hills. The service, however, needs improvement, especially in the restaurant area. The location was perfect for my participation in The Etape Cymru Cycle event, being right on the Offa's Dyke footpath.
