A really good place to stay in the valleys
Pros:

Good effort to deal with heat. A good fan was provided in the room and it was effective. Breakfast was good, especially the cooked breakfast. The local area is attractive - a park nearby, as well as a station

Nice location
Pros:

Loved the location. 5 minute walk from station, shops you require all in the vicinity. Warm welcome on arriving, very helpful. Fridge in room a bonus.

Cons:

Room a little tired looking, could do with a refresh. Some stains on wall. Stain on chair, sofa wasn't very clean, also had broken top part of remote control behind it. Fitting has come away from wall for trouser press exposing wiring. Hairdryer not working, although replaced when I mentioned it, shame the fitting for trouser press wasn't, just pushed back against the wall. TV didnt work, no terrestrial channels, and kept buffering. Casing on hot water tap was also coming away from the wall. Only 1 fan in room on an extremely hot few days so no sleep was had.

Nightmare parking
Pros:

Beds were very comfortable

Cons:

The car park was totally inaccessible.. communication from staff on how to get to it was dreadful check in time was muddled three different times given .. and road was blocked off by bollards as it was market day so we couldn't get near to drop off luggage .
No sight or sign of any management despite asking to speak never saw a manager

Great little hotel
Pros:

Conveniently located, great breakfast, friendly and helpful staff

Cons:

We stayed during a heatwave, the room was very hot. It’s down to exceptional weather conditions and probably rarely the case but air con would help

An historic hotel, a superb location,. good facilities, good food, pleasant staff. Well Done!
Pros:

Beautifully located in the centre of Pontypridd, I found the public rooms and the bedroom very tastefully decorated and in keeping with the historic building, with the bathroom well equipped. The portable A/C unit in the bedroom coped well with the exceptional heat and quickly reduced and thereafter maintained the room at a pleasant temperature, The wide selection of cooked breakfasts/brunch, although at a modest additional cost were a highlight with good quality ingredients tasty and well presented,. Another highlight was the staff, who were most pleasant and consistently helpful

Cons:

The location precludes an onsite carpark but free parking is available in the carpark of a nearby restaurant. A problem with communication at check-in resulted in a penalty charge which the friendly and efficient hotel reception staff did their best to resolve; with a satisfactory resolution eventually achieved which did not leave me out of pocket. Something to watch.

Pros:

This is a lovely boutique hotel, right in the centre of Ponty. My room was excellent; very large, with a sofa and extremely comfortable bed. The en suite had both a shower and bath. The staff were very accommodating and helpful. I arrived early, and was checked in as soon as the room was ready at no extra cost. Good value breakfast, and nice restaurant meals. Very close to railway station.

Cons:

Ponty can be noisy on a Friday and Saturday. I advise getting a third floor room if you can.
