This is a characterful hotel in a beautiful location with very friendly and hard-working owners. They greet you early in the morning with a friendly smile and a delicious breakfast and will still be working hard serving you a nice drink in the evening; still with the friendly smile. The room we had overlooking the river is large and comfortable. Dinner in the evening is hearty, reasonably priced and cosy (especially with the log burner going!) 
Prices seem to be a bit lower if you book direct (something we realised after 🤦🏻‍♂️)

Friendly, clean and accommodating

On our arrival I went inside to ask if we could check in a bit earlier. This was fine & began to complete the paperwork. Was asked about payment & I said I needed to get my partner (he waited outside as he's disabled and it was just easier for me to "nip in" and ask). Got my partner, and the second we arrived back at the desk we were asked about payment. My partner got out his card & the lady behind the desk proceeded to tell us about where our room was, about meals, etc, all the while I was trying to help my partner pay. I had to ask her to repeat some things as I hadn't caught what she said. She just needed to have a bit of foresight as to what was going on!! We weren't shown to our room (let them off, I suppose, as it was two flights up!) But once up the view was lovely and room comfortable with the hugest bed. Plenty of complimentary snacks/T & C. My biggest gripe was the apathy shown when I informed the (I assume) hotel manager that someone was smoking cannabis in a room on our floor. Whilst we couldn't smell it in our room, the corridor STANK. I think I'm pretty  liberal, but that wasn't on.

Breakfast was very nice, with plenty of choice.

Builth Wells is a lovely little town, but cold and soggy in January! Some great little pubs to meet the locals who are friendly and funny. Not all of the pubs do food every night. A lovely little place, though.

Interesting....

Stayed here for a long weekend. It is a lovely hotel and all the staff went the extra mile with anything we asked.
We ate in the restaurant one night and the food was great and enjoyed our daily breakfast
It is in a great location, central to Builth Wells and very close to the Royal Welsh Showground. There is so much to see and do in the surrounding area, I'd highly recommend a visit.

Lovely hotel, food and people

Stop for the night on our way to Devil's Bridge in Wales National Park.  Convenient parking.  Very clean accommodation and good food in hotel dining room.  The staff were extremely helpful in helping to solve an auto problem.

Excellent

Long drive back yesterday, en route to cardiff,  at about 4pm we stopped in Builth Wells and were starving! Didn’t like the look of any of the other establishments we passed, then about to give up and we saw this place offering roasts, but only till 3, we thought we’d see if they had another menu! They didn’t but almost without hesitation they agreed to do us a roast. My husband doesn’t normally, like roasts in restaurants he usually feels short changed! But this was amazing! Even our 7 year old had a good go (there was lots of food!) he’s hard to please. The meat was beautifully cooked, the Yorkshire’s gorgeous and all the veg very tasty , especially the cauliflower cheese! Stunning! Highly recommend. You could easily pass the place, but I recommend you don’t! A real gem. All the staff were really friendly! 

Unexpected first class roast

This is a very new modern hotel facing Lions Square in the centre of Sofia. Everything is spanking new, in perfect condition correctly working! Breakfast is also OK! I tried many medium price hotels in Sofia and this is by far the best. I hope it remains that way for a few years! I'll definetely revisite! Thanks to the kind lady at the reception!

Perfect!

On arrival we were told about times for meals etc, we then were shown the secure garage to park our mtorcycles. The room was clean and tidy, everything needed for a nights stay. NOTE free private parking
Then we visted the bar, sensibe prices and again very polite staff.
As the saying goes "politeness cost nothing", rudeness cost business, some of the other places we stayed should take note

Refreshing to find a place with polite staff

Stayed at this hotel 20 years ago, so was keen to go back. Check in was friendly and efficient, room was clean and tidy, great shower, comfy bed, nice towels, plenty of tea coffee and biscuits, we had the coffee and cake deal one afternoon, really enjoyed it and it was good value. Breakfast was quality but the service was a little mixed. Hours are a little limited too, 9am is too early to stop serving at the weekends. 
We really enjoyed the stay. Centrally located perfect for Builth and the surrounding area, free parking was good and safe. Hope we can stay again.

No Bull just Beer weekend

Excellent hotel. Clean,spacious room and bathroom. Delicious breakfast. Friendly and efficient staff who even helped with carrying in our luggage from the car. Good choice of food in the restaurant including vegetarian and gluten free!

Strongly recommend

Some significant issues during the stay (which would have normally resulted in a poor rating) saved by some excellent customer service by staff and management for which I'm grateful.
The hotel itself is centrally located with free parking and large clean comfortable rooms. The food was also excellent throughout my stay.
Bearing everything in mind, I would happily return and recommend to others. Thanks to all.
