Can't fault it
Pros:

Cannot fault this hotel. I've stayed here multiple times for work and would never stay elsewhere. A great price for really generous sized clean rooms with a fridge, smart TV, good tea and coffee selection and a great breakfast with friendly and welcoming staff.

Great breakfast but room was a bit disappointing
Pros:

This is my second visit to The Spillman. My first visit was excellent as I was given a room in the main building. However this time we were given a room in an annex. Whilst it appeared clean there were cobwebs hanging from the ceiling and there was a musty smell in the room.
Also just to make others aware the carpark has a very tight opening and because of the bollards on the pavement adjacent to the opening its very difficult to negotiate with a SuV and larger.
Apart from that the staff were friendly and welcoming and the breakfast was delicious.

Great Stay
Pros:

We stayed for one night whilst travelling through. The staff we met were welcoming, friendly and helpful. Our room was fresh, tasteful, well equipped and very clean. We had a full cooked breakfast which was perfectly cooked and the service was faultless. We would definitely stay again and have no hesitation in recommending The Spilman Hotel.

We marked down comfort slightly from Excellent to Good because we had a very hot night (August) the fan in room was very welcome but not sure if our mattress was memory foam or not but,although comfortable, we did find it hot to sleep on. Just our personal preference.

Pros:

Booked this hotel as the rest of our large group were staying at The Ivy Bush Hotel opposite, where they had been recommended.

We were not disappointed, the hotel was beautifully decorated and everywhere spotlessly clean. The staff were all very friendly and helpful.

Breakfast was included and was scrummy.

Our friends at The Ivy Bush were extremely disappointed with their accommodation and evening meal and next time will book the Spilman Hotel.

Would definitely recommend 😊

Central location, spacious room & great breakfast
Pros:

Large spacious room. Fan, hair dryer, iron, kettle and a fridge in the room. The beds were comfortable and lovely bedding. Big open shower with shower gel, shampoo and hand wash supplied. Breakfast is cooked to order plus all the usual fruit, cereal, pastries. The car park is a tight squeeze to get in, plenty of spaces. Great location in the centre of the town. Although we barely heard any noise from in our room. It was a lovely stay, we will definitely be back for our next stay in Carmarthen.
