    My stay at Rhydspence was truly enjoyable. The bedroom was comfortable and cozy, making me feel right at home. The complimentary tea, coffee, biscuits, and water in the room were a lovely touch. The restaurant served amazing food that left my taste buds satisfied. it was a pleasant weekend getaway. Despite some drawbacks, I would still recommend this hotel.

    I had a truly enjoyable two-night stay at this lovely, quirky 14th-century historic building. The property is surrounded by beautiful surroundings, and the large room I stayed in offered a stunning view. The food at the restaurant was excellent, and the staff, especially the locals, were friendly and welcoming. Despite a few drawbacks like no wifi in the room and dated bathroom fittings, I would definitely consider returning to this unique establishment. I highly recommend this hotel for a memorable and charming experience.

    amazing city break, exceeded expectations in hay-on-wye. hosts were accommodating and restaurant on site was a plus. bed linen top-notch. stunning views of wye valley, bar had great atmosphere, and high-standard food in restaurant. strategic location to explore brecon beacons, hereford, and more. warm welcome from staff and historic room with ancient beams added charm. breakfast was lovely too.

    Shower pressure slight letdown.

    I recently stayed at a charming country hotel with stunning views all around. The room I was given was beautiful, big, clean, and cosy, with beams and comfortable furniture. The bathroom had pretty pictures on the wall and a relaxing hot bath. The staff were lovely, serving delicious food in the restaurant and providing great service during breakfast. The gardens were well-kept, and the location was perfect for sitting out and enjoying the surroundings.

    The hotel is located in a beautiful countryside setting, offering stunning views all around. the rooms are clean, cozy, and equipped with comfortable beds and hot drinks facilities. the bathrooms are well-maintained with pretty pictures on the walls. the breakfast is delicious and filling, served by friendly and welcoming staff. the building itself is quaint, with beams and armchairs adding to its charm. the hotel provides a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and the food served at the restaurant is of first-class quality.

    There was a slight issue with the noise level, particularly in rooms located on the kitchen side.

    We had a wonderfully relaxing stay at a charming inn that transported us back in time. Without any wifi or phone signal, we were able to enjoy quality time with each other, free from distractions. The inn's old-world feel and attentive staff made the experience even more enjoyable.
