I stayed here for 2 nights during my Offa’s Dyke walk - I had a day of R & R on Hay.  And what a great place to stop. A great room, comfy bed and a nice view of the main street. Breakfast was fantastic and the full breakfast was too much to walk on so I had a lighter option on my departure day. The swimming pool was perfect - a great place to relax and rest a weary body. Di was cheerful and helpful whenever I had a question, which was quite often! All in all a wonderful stay.

A wonderful stay

Booked by our hiking company, On Foot Holidays. Typical, old (16th century) Welsh building with the quirks and charm associated. Friendly, helpful staff. Good breakfast, much desired after nearly 16 mile hike the day prior. Centrally located in town which afforded us easy access to the Saturday market. Very enjoyable and comfortable.

Charming 16th Century Stay

Just returned from another wonderful stay at this at the Seven Stars, if I could give a review of 7 stars I would.

I have stayed several times before on business and pleasure. In these days of sterile hotels and poor customer service, this place is an absolute gem that should be treasured. 

The rooms are comfortable as are the beds, the breakfast is wonderful, even a vegetarian option. Service at breakfast is quick and efficient even when the hotel has many guests in residence. The pool makes the place, it feels very exclusive when you have it to yourself and my favourite part of a stay.

The owner not only remembers returning guests, but takes the time to make guests feel at home with a chat and a smile. That rare old fashioned commodity, customer service.

In these financially troubled times, places like this do disappear, a time and a place can never be replaced once it's gone. We have experienced this before, returning years later to a favourite hotel to find the previous owners gone and the hotel redeveloped. A very special place, run by people who cared about quality and service gone forever. I hope this never happens to the Seven Stars.

If you are still reading this review and debating staying, just book you won't regret it. For those who are looking for a premier Inn then, book one leave this place to guests who appreciate what a special place this hotel and the owner are.

Simply Timeless

I arrived late, 8 pm, and the receptionist was going away, he told me he left the key with a message, but he was kind enough to carry my suitcase upstairs (there is a narrow staircase to reach the rooms and of course no lift, ancient mansion). The room was very small, luckily I was alone because there wasn’t space for my suitcase, let alone for another person. The bathroom was tiny too but the shower was new and working. I heard there is a swimming pool but nobody told me where and when working. Breakfast begins late, 8.30 in the morning; having to be at the riding stables in the near village at 9 I couldn’t have it (it’s no buffet, they prepare it in the kitchen). Luckily there was complimentary tea and two biscuits ion the room.
The location is good, on the main road, and there is free parking. The price for what you get is utterly excessive, I spent 110£ for one night..

Very expensive for the offer

Nice quiet place to stay, Friendly staff with good conversations and good breakfast,
would like to have used the sauna but was closed due to virus restrictions,
would definitely stay again, 
easy parking and good central point to access the village.

Hawaii Five-0

Quiet and friendly place to stay

Having read good reviews we were disappointed. We booked for 3 nights but left after an uncomfortable  2. …Had a warm welcome from staff when we arrived who gave us a room above the swimming pool in an annex. It smelt very strongly of chlorine & we asked to change. Staff did not look surprised. We were told that they were full but could phone around Hay to find us somewhere else however they said Hay itself was full. We couldn’t have slept in the room so accepted her offer to find alternative accommodation… then they suddenly found us a spare room!

Having been told that Hay was full we felt that we had little choice but to accept Room 3. Unfortunately this was a mistake. Tiny room, certainly not a double, nowhere for cases, no bedside tables/lamps, one electric socket, tired/cramped with no wall sound proofing…we could hear the man next door coughing all night as if he was in the room with us. We also booked this place for the sauna which was not working during our stay.

Breakfast was good but accommodation was poor. When we checked out early the owner didn’t seem surprised, she said that it was 16th century & told us to leave the key on the bar. Very disappointing.

Disappointing

Good room in the annex at the back over the top of the swimming pool.  The interior on the main property is a bit dark and pub like but efficient staff and service.  Excellent breakfast - prepared and presented well.  Good ensuite with shower.

Nice room in the annex at the back

Warmth envelops you as soon as you walk in and are greeted by Seven Stars’ very friendly and bubbly owner. 

Our room was simple but very clean. We loved lying in bed and looking out of the long sash window on the hustle and bustle of the outside world. 

Breakfast was superb. The homemade dried fruit salad was delicious. Coffee, including a very good de caffeinated blend, was served in individual cafetières. An excellent full cooked breakfast was available although we tended to have poached eggs served with a little stack of white and wholemeal toasted soldiers. 

Ideally situated in the heart of Hay with on-site parking, we would not hesitate to return.


In the heart of Hay

Had a wonderful 3 night stay, friendly staff, great clean comfy family room that has just been refurbished to an excellent standard. This is our second visit and we will be sure to continue to stay at the seven stars when visiting Hay. The pool is such a bonus and a great way to end the day with children. Amazing location, couldn't recommend it enough.

Seven Starts Guest House is a rambling old house full of character. The host is lovely and makes delicious breakfast. There is a friendly dog and complimentary tea, coffee and biscuits. Should I go back to Hay, I'll stay there again!
