Great base to explore the local area from plus dynamite dinners.
Pros:

Breakfast was good and hot meals prepared to order. The hotel restaurant offered Bangladeshi/ Infian food which was superb. Samosas and bread home maid and like breakfast, main dishes were cooked to order. If you wanted to explore the Wye river and valley this was a perfect place to stay.

Cons:

Steep hill to climb to exit, which my husband found difficult.

We would come again. Visitors would be advised to book north facing bedrooms in the peak of summer.
Pros:

Location and service

Cons:

We had a south facing room which was uncomfortably hot when we arrived on 17 July. It was a hot day and it would have been nice to have an air coditioned room or at least one was not so hot. Even with the fan running all night the nights weren't comfortable. My mattress had sagged with age. Pity because the south facing rooms have the best view. I would recommend that when finance allows the hotel is refurbished with low solar gain glazing and brise soleils to the south facing windows. Windows would benefit from larger opening areas. Investigate whether hot water disribution could benefit from renewed foil faced insulation to the pipework and insulated pipe suspension. Bedrooms could be fitted with ceiling fans. If all this is insufficient consider air conditioning.
