typical coaching inn style accomadation in the centre of the town. staff very friendly and helpful.

every thing was fine.

Overall: the standard of breakfast had room for improvement. there was no choice of friut juice and it was warm!! defininatly it should have been chilled and fresh. the coffee, tea and hot water jugs were not marked and the coffee was stewed. waitress was very pleasent and smiley.  (3305064952)

Comfortable and very convenient. Food was excellent and very good value for money.

Rather noisy as situated right in middle of High Street. Also some very noisy and inconsiderate guests staying in adjoining room.

Overall: nothing more to add. In general we enjoyed our stay and would use this hotel again.  (1624294)

the young lady who booked us in initially was excellent,very friendly and helpfull

the staff on the tuesday were terrible unhelpful and spoke welsh to each other in front of us NO INTERNET this was one of the reasons we chose this hotel NO EVENING MEAL told by staff not busy enough to supply meal again this is advertised on web site and one of the reasons we booked,when i said that we had rushed back for a meal she shrugged her shoulders also the staff seemed to be having a personnal birthday party and when we came home at 22.45 the hotel was in darkness and no staff on the premises we booked for four nights but left after two and had to stay at great expense at the hilton in cardiff

Overall: very upsetting,the staff show no consideration for their guests  (108778642)

Nice barman, very friendly & helpful

Terrible breakfast, burnt

Overall: No one on desk to check out in the morning, waited for 20 minutes then had to go looking for some one. Room not bad.  (108670582)

clean room, comfortable bed, nice towels, powerful hairdryer!Practical centre of town near main shops, etc.

Hotel claim 10 tv channels, we had 2 working, BBC1 and BBC3! and noisy, noisy, noisy (especially just above the bus stop) - service at saturday morning breakfast very miserable, not welcoming. My daughter and I even wondered if it was because we were not Welsh!

Overall: My daughter is now at Carmarthen University for 3 years so I and rest of family will be visiting quite regularly, but will try another hotel next time to compare. £60 seemed a lot for that, limited tv and an unfriendly breakfast  (108941776)

Why do we publish ratings from Active Hotels?

Our rating system is designed to give you the confidence to find and book the hotel that best suits your needs. We've worked hard to create a fair and impartial process to collect our ratings so you can always be assured of a great hotel experience.

How do I add a rating?

Unlike other sites that offer ratings, our rating process is by invitation only. This ensures that 100% of the ratings you see on our site come from guests that have booked online with us and stayed at the hotel in question.

All our ratings are created by guests who have booked through Active Hotels (or its sister sites) and completed their stay over the last year. We don't edit, alter or adjust the ratings so you can be sure of unbiased opinions.

How do you manage to collect so many ratings?

48 hours after departure from your accommodation booked through Active Hotels or any of our sister sites, you may be invited to complete a guest review questionnaire. This means that, for most hotels, we're able to post more than 1 guest rating every single week. We currently display over 70,000 ratings and we add hundreds of scores from real guests every day.
